ADT Control ®

Editor's Review

In an era where technology enriches our lives, the ADT Control app emerges as a pivotal tool, extending the capabilities of your ADT Command smart home or business security system right to your fingertips. 📱 This app isn't just about security; it's about creating a smart, responsive environment that adapts to your needs, whether you're at home or on the go. 🚀

Seamless Integration and Control

ADT Control provides a smooth transition, allowing you to manage your security and automation from anywhere in the world. 🌍 Imagine being able to arm your home security system from a distant location, ensuring peace of mind no matter where you are. With ADT Control, you can also control your lights, giving the illusion that your home is occupied, deterring potential intruders.💡

Advanced Access Management

The app's remote door lock and unlock feature is incredibly convenient, allowing you to grant access to contractors, visitors, or even let your dog walker in without a key. 🚪 You'll also receive real-time alerts whenever your system status changes or a door is unlocked, so you're always in the know. This is especially useful for keeping tabs on your kids when they arrive home from school or monitoring when your manager gets to work. 👨‍💼👩‍💼 Plus, with live video feeds, you can check in on your property whenever you want, providing an extra layer of security and surveillance. 📹

Energy Efficiency and Comfort

ADT Control also lets you adjust your smart thermostat remotely, ensuring everyone is comfortable while potentially reducing energy expenses. 🌡️ This feature allows you to optimize your home's climate, making it cozy when you're there and energy-efficient when you're not. 💰

Customization with Scenes and Schedules

One of the most powerful aspects of the ADT Control app is the ability to create custom scenes and schedules. 🎬 This allows for one-touch control of your smart home or business security and automation. Set up automations for when you leave or arrive, ensuring that your security system is armed and your lights are set just right. 🌅 Create a vacation scene that turns on different lights at different times, and even turns the TV or radio on and off, simulating occupancy to deter burglars. 🏖️ You can also adjust your system for different times of day, so your security, lighting, temperature, and other smart features are always perfectly set. ⏰

The Security of Things

ADT Control truly transforms your security system into a smart, integrated solution. By extending the functionality of your ADT Command system, it ensures that you're always in control, no matter where you are.
