Total Connect 2.0 for Pc

I had this system installed in my home a couple years ago. We have two tuxedo touch keypad’s, thermostat, 4 cameras, and automated front door deadbolt, water sensors connected to my sump pumps. We have a bunch of lights and outlets connected to the system through Z wave technology. I’ve never seen a better system out there that doesn’t rely on your Wi-Fi is this is using a cellular radio so even when all the power goes out in the area our home and still protected unlike some of these do it yourself Systems you see on TV. I would recommend this to anybody because it’s amazing even the garage doors connected to it. We have what’s called a seen set up called going to bed that we click one button and it will go and close the garage door if it isn’t already, lock the front door, shut off a bunch of the lights including the outdoor lights, lower the temperature on the thermostat and armoire system. You cannot get all those features in one app with these do it yourself commercials we see so if anybody wants a real security system that is really going to work in the event of an emergency I would go with this one. Even all of the smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in the home are connected to it so I know when the middle of the night if something happens emergency help is on the way and all four of my kids and my wife are protected.

I have had the alarm system for abt 3 yrs now. The alarm part works fine. The camera they could never get to work.. could not connect to my Wifi for some reason. The first attempt to get a camera was abt a year ago, I believe.. they took the camera back down and took it with them.. due to not being able to connect camera to my WiFi. Mind u, my WiFi works perfectly fine with every other wireless product I have had.. so I thought I’d give it another try and called them back out to try to install another camera before I was to leave for out of state for 10 days.. I’m goin to cut to the chase.. once again they couldn’t connect to WiFi and blamed it on att.. so att gave me new router and said everything looked good and in working order. Tried to get a tech back before leaving for vaca and after 2 hrs on phone and climbing up and down ladder trying things the guy on the phone was having me try, I asked to speak with a supervisor.. They could not get tech there before I was to depart so I argued to let me out of contract so I could go elsewhere and they refused..and needless to say, myhouse was robbed and glass sliding door busted out while I was gone. Would have been nice to have a camera working.. I’m still contemplating taking my police report and suing them for the price to replace door ( which I obviously had to do immediately upon arriving home) and my stolen property.. I definitely would NOT recommend amp or the app connect.

Every new version of this app is better than the next one. In other words, it just keeps getting worse. Sensor bypassing used to be simple, intuitive, and right on the home screen on iPad. Now you have to go to a separate screen and even after bypassing sensors it is hard to tell if they are actually bypassed. How hard is that to get right? I would recommend working on connectivity issues which have plagued this app from the start rather than “tweaking” the UI which these current developers clearly understand little about. This app should be simple and intuitive to use and with rock solid connectivity. Currently it has neither. I paid hundreds of dollars for the hardware and am wondering if I will have to do that again with a different vendor just to get a decent iPhone / iPad app to control it? Come on Honeywell, hire some decent software developers! Update - this app has become unusable and rarely is able to connect to the panel anymore... Zone Data Error... Cannot Connect To Panel At This Time... This Junk DOES NOT WORK AT ALL ANYMORE!!! PERIOD!!! How hard is this to do Honeywell??? Hire some competent developers and fire the clowns that ruined this rather simple to do app. I am going to have to switch vendors for my security system ... I am paying for this!!!

I am trying to customize our smart scenes so that we can control our garage security now that we have kittens who need to go in and out of our garage at any time on a daily basis. The garage door should automatically close at 90% at a designated time. It is difficult to figure out how to set up the Auto Scenes. This App is somewhat helpful but really is NOT intuitive to use. The professional company that set up our system did not clearly ID our entry points and devices, so I am struggling to figure out how to customize the settings to automatically secure our entire home. This is frustrating. Furthermore, I am not certain the house is adequately secured at each entry point. The App gives conflicting info, it seems. I will be further testing and seeking help. The App is interesting and can be useful. However, it is not optimally designed to be user-friendly. And we home owners who use these systems are basically “on our own” when using this App. I do hope it is updated to be more functional. As a user, I need to be able to self-customize my settings and sync with our home security devices.
