Gave feedback through app feedback page as requested. ### 3/5 — Alarm notification *2026-04-10, version 5.2.6* This app is great when it works but you need to work on a better way to dismiss the active alarm notifications. I just now had to reject the alarm notification 8 or 9 times while trying to speak to the security company for a false alarm. ### 3/5 — Great Idea, Needs Refinement. *2026-01-08, version 5.2.5* Great idea and very convenient overall. Being able to arm and disarm the alarm from your phone is genuinely useful and works well. However, the app sends far too many duplicate notifications for a single event. A common power failure can trigger multiple identical alerts, which quickly becomes annoying, especially when more than one person in the household uses the app. One notification per event would be enough. There’s also a noticeable delay in updates and responses. Even with multiple network options available (SIMs and Wi-Fi), the app can be slow, which is not ideal for a security system where speed matters. With fewer notifications and faster response times, this app could be excellent. Right now, it still feels a bit unpolished. ### 2/5 — Struggling to Arm sometimes *2025-02-27, version 5.1.3* Recently my app is not working so great, there are 2 users in the home and the 2nd user cannot arm at all anymore. I was arming fine until a few days ago….it just either takes forever to arm or now it just won’t arm or disarm and I have to do it manually on the alarm keypad. Don’t know what’s changed but it’s frustrating. ### 2/5 — App stopped working *2025-01-14, version 5.1.1* The app used to work perfectly until 2 months ago. My apps on both the iPhone and Huawei stopped working 52 days ago, what could be the issue? It stays greyed out and it doesn’t connect to my system anymore. Can I request that you look into it please. ### 2/5 — Keep having to sign in *2024-05-02, version 4.3.2* No matter how many times I select “remember me” the app boots me out every so often. If I’m in an emergency and need the app signing in just buys criminals more time. Biometric sign in must surely be a part of this. Upgrade please. ### 3/5 — Too many notifications of same event *2024-03-13, version 4.3.2* Great app. Just one thing that’s a bit annoying, I get at least 3 notifications when I arm/disarm my alarm. I also get 3 notifications about the AC battery being off/on and when my battery power is on low/OK status. All 3 of the same notifications come all at once depending on the event. Please fix this bug. Thanks ### 2/5 — Notifications & buttons *2024-02-10, version 4.3.2* Had functioned perfectly until recently with bearable few instances of slow response & disconnect: How do I stop “Periodic test report” notifications that pops in multiples? Updated my app but I don’t have the panic on it. ### 3/5 — Noko *2024-02-09, version 4.3.2* Recently updated to the latest version now app won’t allow me to sign in. ### 1/5 — Probably worst app I’ve ever tried to use *2024-01-02, version 4.3.0* The features all look reasonably useful, the major issue is the time it take for things to happen. Bypassing a zone can take 50seconds to 5 minutes or more to actuate, if at all. Half the time I spend watching a spinning circle only for nothing to happen. I dare not rely on this junk to actually function when I really need it. I ditched one security company because I wasn’t happy with the provider primarily, and I thought their Olarm app was average at best, it’s amazing by comparison. ### 1/5 — Frustrating!!! *2023-12-14, version 4.3.0* I don’t understand why the app kicks me out and then says my login details are incorrect. I request to reset the password then the OTP is never sent! This is annoying! Please fix it! ### 3/5 — Good app, but… *2023-11-05, version 4.2.8* It logs me out automatically every now and then and then I have to log in again. For some reason I also have to log in again on the panel area (without the login details changing). Quite frustrating :) ### 2/5 — Very slow *2023-11-01, version 4.2.8* Find that the app is really slow in connecting to panel really frustrating when you need to arm. Have to keep closing opening app ### 1/5 — AWFUL *2023-10-23, version 4.2.8* ArmME seems to get worse by the day. I am on a fibre line ( so you can’t tell me it’s cellular) and it takes up to 10 minutes to update. Just now at least an hour after we tested our alarm a whole lot of alerts came through. It’s clear your servers can’t cope or the number of concurrent sessions can’t cope. Whichever the case it’s getting worse not better. Didn’t think it could. ### 1/5 — Extremely slow response *2023-07-21, version 4.2.2* App takes to long to login and authenticate, sometimes takes more than 5 minutes to connect or it fails and have to reopen ### 1/5 — False alarms *2023-07-20, version 4.2.2* I keep getting false alarms saying I lost supervision of a zone that is not even configured. This alarm keeps going off every 5 minutes and restores almost immediately. This is exceptionally frustrating. I had the installers of the system recheck the configuration and there is no errors. The physical alarm system does not have any errors, which means this must be driven by a fault on the app. Super annoying and is causing the entire app to be non-functional because I have to switch off notifications. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Slow *2026-04-08, version 5.2.6* Please can you look at making the app responsive, it takes forever to do anything with arming or disarming its very frustrating It loads forever ### 1/5 — App failure and slow *2025-09-10, version 5.2.3* The app's unresponsiveness makes it nearly impossible to use. It can take up to 20 minutes of constant re-opening and waiting just to perform a single action. This has been a very frustrating and time-consuming experience. ### 1/5 — Connection after update *2025-08-10, version 5.2.0* Seriously battling to arm/disarm - connection is extremely difficult after the update.. Home picture no longer stays as well, keeps resetting after you close and reopen the app. ### 1/5 — Poor app *2025-02-23, version 5.1.2* This app is never stable. I don’t know how anyone can rate it more than 1 star. Maybe they don’t have my panel. As a safety/security app it should always work. However, so often I get the circle going forever when trying to arm. Clearly the developers are not doing enough in the background to validate the comms to the panel. Very disappointing. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work at all *2024-12-22, version 5.1.1* The app has always been excruciatingly slow, but have not been able to use the app for the last week at minimum. I am unable to bypass, arm or disarm and does not update the status even when I manually arm the house. ### 1/5 — Does not update *2024-09-21, version 5.0.2* I use the app to turn my alarm system on and off. It just doesn’t seem to link properly to the actual alarm. My app will say it is disarmed but the alarm is still active. Had many “false alarms” this week. What happens if I’m in an emergency and the app panic button doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Riddled with issues - *2024-05-05, version 4.3.2* Cannot change email address to verify - makes the A and O - automatically in email address Cannot deactivate alarm from app - Cannot bypass zones - Just constant annoying problem after problem Useless app - cannot believe user by ADT and other prominent security companies - Find a replacement - useless !!! ### 1/5 — Frustrating Syncing Issues with ArmME App Post-Upgrade *2024-03-10, version 4.3.2* I recently upgraded the ArmME app on my phone, hoping for improved functionality and a better user experience. However, to my disappointment, the app no longer syncs with my phone after the upgrade. This has been a major inconvenience as I rely on the app to keep track of important information and tasks. Despite numerous attempts to troubleshoot the syncing issue, including reinstalling the app and checking for updates, the problem persists. The lack of syncing functionality has significantly hindered my ability to use the app effectively, leading to frustration and disappointment. I have reached out to the app's customer support for assistance, but have yet to receive a satisfactory resolution. It is disheartening to encounter such issues with a once-reliable app, and I hope that the developers address this issue promptly to restore the app's functionality for all users. Overall, my experience with the ArmME app post-upgrade has been marred by syncing issues, making it difficult to fully utilize its features. I would caution others considering the app to be aware of this issue and proceed with caution until a resolution is provided. ### 1/5 — Useless App *2024-03-09, version 4.3.2* This App is absolutely useless! Since switching from MiFalcon to Armme as suggested by my armed security services I have been unable to activate or deactivate my Paradox alarm system from my phone which means I am unable to secure my home remotely while away. I have struggled endlessly with this App since day one! Useless and non-functional in my opinion. ### 1/5 — Useless app *2024-01-16, version 4.3.0* Not updating zone names when changed at ops room. When the alarm went off, not able to reset the screen, keep on showing the premisses are alarmed, even when armed again. You never know if an bypass is an actual bypass. It does not always happen. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Unable to connect *2025-05-15, version 5.1.3* Urgent assistance. Hi, please urgently assist. The app just stopped working and was unable to log back in using my credentials. It been weeks of trying. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app but with no luck. Please help ### 5/5 — Can’t open app *2024-06-12, version 5.0.0* Hi why doesn’t the app open after I downloaded it and clicked open Please help ### 5/5 — Please help *2024-03-23, version 4.3.2* So I signed up the first time I think I put my email wrong now yesterday the app sign me off Now I can not access the app no matter what thou the phone number is correct when I reset the password ### 5/5 — Authorisation denied *2024-02-17, version 4.3.2* I note the app frequently reflects that Authorisation has been denied for the request Whilst this has never happened with the Falcon app This renders the app unreliable How can I fix this error ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-04-26, version 4.1.6* I’ve been using the app for a while and have always found it very user friendly and easy to navigate. I like that the options are easy to access and well labelled. Overall a great app. ### 5/5 — ArmME app is easy to use *2023-03-10, version 4.1.5* The app controls your security system remotely. Easy to use. Arm, Disarm or Stay arm your alarm. The app is quick and responsive and you receive notifications and alerts on the activities on your alarm system. ### 5/5 — Might be missing something *2022-07-12, version 4.0.0* (EDIT)Also when a zone trips the app doesn’t show what zone got tripped. Are there currently or will there be a feature were I can remove/hide unused zones? The app keeps showing zones active but I am not using them at the moment (not connected). Also can we get more notifications like “area armed/disarmed” by “user”? Also with load shedding in SA the AC fail status does not update when power gets back on. Thank you for the app and developers. ### 5/5 — Aut *2022-04-14, version 3.5.0* Will help to have “call cancel” function to notify the security company to not respond or call thats in case of accidental triggering of an alarm. The basic functionality works well. ### 5/5 — Error *2021-01-01, version 2.0.1* Keeps on giving me an error 303 ### 5/5 — Incompatible with iPhone *2019-09-30, version 1.6.3* The app seemed fine when the alarm company explained it to me, unfortunately the display on the iPhone doesn’t show what the Samsung does (options missing regarding control activation etc of alarm) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
