Sucks

Adt is by far the worst security company you could possibly think of using their app is always down and never works. You can’t even watch any video footage. Do not use this company for they truly do stock.

Cancel

Most of my equipment is old and dead. Cancel my account permanently.

Always protected

Reliable for years!

This app sucks

How many times do I have to give a bad review? The app sucks so much that it keeps asking for a new review

Jordan Levesque

This app is garbage. It crashes all the time. When your cellphone service is weak it tries to get you to sign in manually which never works. The facial recognition doesn’t work. And there’s no integration with car play or Apple Watch. ADT Blue needs to update their stuff.
