EDITOR’S REMARKS
Another great use of a smartphone instead of a remote. With this app you can control almost every function of your home, while you are away. Let the kids in when they ring the bell after hours. Arm the front door while you’re out back … the app is quite flexible. If you forget to set your alarm, you can activate it from anywhere. You can also control your home’s thermostat, adjust the lights. You can also view a live video feed (as long as you have the proper equipment installed at home).
THE BEST: Great peace of mind. You’ve spent the money on a great alarm system, the phone adds value.
NEEDS WORK: The installation and equipment you need to control all these services could add up to thousands of dollars.

This is an amazing app! I can arm and disarm my security system remotely, see live video form two cameras I have in my home, adjust lights and my thermostat settings, and see if doors and windows are open. If you have and ADT Pulse secuirty system, you HAVE to get this app!
Looks great, easy and intuitive to use. I love my Pulse system and I love how it works on my laptop, my phone, and on my touch screen.
My home is now at the palm of my hand with alarm controls i determine who comes into my home even when I am not arround. With the cameras inside I can check in on the kids and babysitter as well view clips of who came and went through different doors. the app keeps you in control and the alarm keeps you at peace. Thank You ADT this app is AWESOME…
PULSE IS A MIND-BLOWING GAME CHANGER! LIKE HAVING “EYES BEHIND YOUR HEAD”! PERFECT FOR HOME OR BUSINESS!
PULSE has given my family peace of mind. We are able to monitor our home from wherever we are in a very easy and simple way! Image resolution is incredible! At night we can turn our lights on, see what is going on and turn them off again without overspenging in electricity. If anyone forgets to turn off the toaster, I do it from the office and when away I turn on my radio so people think we are home. With Pulse we are in control!
