ADT Control ®

Editor's Review

In today's interconnected world, we expect technology to simplify and enhance our lives. The ADT Control app embraces this concept, offering a smarter security and automation system. It's the Internet of Things, meeting The Security of Things! 🤩

ADT Control seamlessly bridges the gap between being at home or work and having mobile smart security and automation. It extends the capabilities of your ADT Command smart home or business security system, placing it conveniently in your hand, no matter where you are. It goes beyond simply protecting what matters most; it delivers truly intelligent security for your home or business. 🛡️

Here’s how the ADT Control app puts you in complete command of your smart security and automation:

• Arm or disarm your home or business security from virtually anywhere in the world. 🌎
• Control your lights remotely, making it appear as though your home or business is always occupied, deterring potential intruders. 💡
• Lock or unlock your doors remotely, granting access to contractors, visitors, or even your dog walker. 🐕
• Receive instant alerts when your system status changes or when a door is unlocked, such as when your children arrive home from school or when your manager gets to work. Watch live video to check in on them. 📹
• Adjust your smart thermostat to ensure everyone's comfort, while potentially reducing your energy expenses. 🌡️

Create Scenes and Schedules to bring it all together! With the ADT Control app, you can create scenes and schedules that give you the ultimate one-touch control of your smart home or business security and automation: 🖱️

• Set up automated actions for when you leave or arrive at your home or business.
• Create a vacation Scene that intelligently turns on different lights at different times, turns the TV or radio on and off, simulating occupancy and deterring potential intruders. 🌴
• Adjust your system settings for different times of day, ensuring your security, lighting, temperature, and other smart features are perfectly set at just the right time. ⏰
