• Keep recorded events available for review for up to 30 days with the app’s DVR-style storage options.
• Easily scrub through and share clips of notable activity.

Alerts, schedules, and automation

• Receive instant notifications for motion, doorbell rings, and other sensor events so you can see what’s happening right away.
• Create custom timing rules for lights and other automations, then control them remotely from the app.

Door, lock, and garage control

• Lock or unlock doors, open and close the garage, and check the status of smart locks from your phone.
• Unlock doors quickly with a simple swipe or through your chosen authentication method.
