Glitches too much

I can’t even take off the alarm to my own home without it glitching and literally never shutting off the alarm to enter my house.

Ugh

It takes way too long for feed to load once an alert is sent. It’s always timing out. Doesn’t catch some movements. And cost too much cause I was lied to when he came to solicit service. Half the time it doesn’t even record. Just about useless some days. Nosey neighbors seem to pick up more than the security cameras 🙄

Total garbage!

This app worked flawlessly for years but about the last year and a half it doesn’t work almost as much as it does work. I don’t know if it needs some updates or what, all I know is it’s frustrating! My son has the same app on his phone for my system and his does the same things so I know it’s not my phone. You’ll try to arm it or disarm it and it just freezes up like it’s trying to connect and it doesn’t. We’ve set off the alarm several times because we tired of trying to disarm it 3 or 4 times and it doesn’t do anything so we’re forced to go in anyway and try to disarm the box before Brinks calls us. You need to update this or make a new app because I’m fed up with this. Do better Brinks!
