Horrible

Horrible app and horrible cameras. I can’t believe that I keep this service for a while, but canceling this horrible service.

Auto sign out

Not as often, but still auto signs us out

40 year customer App No worky

40 year customer App constantly shows error messages and was on the phone most of the afternoon with numerous reps who can’t schedule to fix the problem. Looks like starting over elsewhere might work better

Works less than 10% of the time

When I try to arm or disarm my system. It’s won’t work. Always says it’s working or it says was unable to perform action. Even looking at the cameras we have through ADT never works. Always buffing

App access

After multiple attempts I can’t login using my email and password. Tried to get a new password but did not get an email so I could change it.

Do better

Do you know how frustrating it is to have to log back in every few days when I am trying to quickly turn the system on or off? Why does it not hold a log in? Completely defeats the purpose. I may as well just run to the keypad every time I open the door.

Worst ever

If you can get it to work, it’s great. I have been trying to reset my password for at least six months. Every time I try it locks me out and says I’ve tried too many times. I have tried telephone help and I have tried chat help and nothing works. This app is literally set up in the worst way, you cannot change the password when you need to. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to get this to work again, and I have had my ADT system for 16 years.

Terrible customer service

Customer service representatives have no idea what is going on. If a technician is dispatched all they want to do is sell you a new system.

Slow Response

The ADT Pulse app is extremely slow to open and load. Even when I'm in the basement, it's faster to walk upstairs and use the keypad than wait for the app. When I come in through the garage, I open the app to disarm the system, but it takes so long to connect that I end up using the key fob instead. At this point, the app isn't useful because it's too slow to be practical.

App need to be refreshed

When I try to arm my alarm, the shield is still green after it is armed at the panel. It does not turn red to alert me that it’s armed. I have to go to the panel to confirm it switched over from my phone request.

App is unreliable!

I would not recommend this app to anyone. It’s not reliable and it is very slow to open. It logs me out a lot. I just don’t trust it to work when I need it!

Slow buggy app

This app has painful lag. Each time I need to control the security panel in the house via the app, it takes almost 15 seconds to connect. This should be instantaneous. This is pretty frustrating. Otherwise the app works okay

App picks and chooses when it wants to work

Awful. Seems biweekly I’m prompted to change my credentials because it’s stating they are incorrect, causing multiple failed log in attempts, leading to extended periods where I’m locked out of my account.

Still slow

The auto sign out problem isn’t as bad nowadays, but the delay to open the app is

Ugh!

Even having super high speed internet, the Live view of Cameras takes forever to connect. 😤 Same thing to activate/deactivate the alarm using this PATHETIC App.

Something just isn’t working properly

The app keeps on malfunctioning. Over the past month it hasn’t worked at least 14 days.

Pulse Plus not working!

Went away from home. I have been unable for over a week to access my ADT Pulse app sign in. The ADT operator says they are having problems with the pulse system and they are working on it. That does not do me any good when I’m away from home and cannot turn on and off my alarm system for several weeks actually now.! Very poor service!

System not connecting

My system today is not connecting to my phone so I can disarm. I have tried to log out the app and back in but nothing is working. Is the sudden down today?
