Apple TV: Intuitive Real-Time Video on Your TV
Apple TV, one of the most intuitive television interfaces ever, is now an interface for your Alarm.com-powered security cameras.
Watching TV when the doorbell rings? Double-tap your Apple TV remote’s Home button, swipe across the menu to the new Alarm.com app, and tap once again to see who’s at the door. Thought you heard a noise in the nursery but don’t want to risk waking a sleeping baby? Use the remote to go full-screen on your nursery’s night vision camera and see exactly what’s going on.
Our new Apple TV app allows you to view four cameras simultaneously from the convenience of your couch, controlling your pan/tilt cameras with easy directional arrows on your TV screen.
If you’re an Apple TV owner, our new app is available now: just search for Alarm.com in the App Store and download it for free.
The Amazon Echo and Alexa integration makes voice control the latest in a wide range of options for controlling an Alarm.com smart home. Users can already interact with their homes via the web, smartphone and tablet apps (iOS, Android and Windows Phone) and apps for wearables and smart TVs.
The first voice control feature will be smart lighting. Relaxing in the living room but left the kitchen lights on? “Alexa, ask Alarm.com to turn off the kitchen lights,” is all you need to say, and your kitchen’s smart lights will dim without you having to lift a finger.
