CONSTANTLY EVOLVING....

The changes bring a fresh look and feel to the app, making it easier for you to navigate, control your devices, and stay connected to your security system and smart home.

This intuitive change allows you to seamlessly navigate throughout the app with a simple tap. Additionally, the navigation menu () has found its new home in the bottom right corner, making it even easier to access.
Empowerment through the Outdoor Camera Siren
We're excited to introduce a manually triggered siren on the Outdoor Camera. With this new capability, you can deter intruders from anywhere in real-time. Once activated, the camera’s loud siren, coupled with a flashing red LED, creates a powerful audio and visual deterrent. The siren can be manually turned on or off through the Frontpoint app or website with a simple tap.
