### 2/5 — Clunky

*2025-06-27*

When it’s working, it’s great. However since the transfer of the Pocket Secure 2 I’ve had to reinstall 3 times in the last eight days.. Very frustrating

### 2/5 — It’s ok

*2025-06-22*

The on and off of the alarm function is ok, works. But the history has been stuck on a week ago and will not refresh

### 2/5 — Mmh

*2025-04-23, version 1.6.23*

Needs more things it can do.

### 2/5 — Disarming from app yet to work

*2024-11-11*

I use the disarm and arm facility from app and without fail, the alarm goes off. That is the only reliable part of the app!

### 2/5 — Needs to sort the time out rubbish

*2024-09-05, version 1.6.16*

Clearly the app needs an update or a bug fix. Can’t even turn an alarm off on the app while I’m 8m away from the control pad. Bad luck if my kids are trying to get inside.

### 2/5 — App outdated

*2024-05-31*

The app needs a refresh , I can arm and disarm but can’t see what I am doing as it’s always on in the app. Pretty useless

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2022-02-09, version 1.6.5*

Doesn’t work!

### 1/5 — App needs to be renamed

*2022-01-05, version 1.6.4*

“2.0” in the app title causes 20 to autocorrect to 2.0

In v1.0 of the app, the same courts when typing 10. You’ll be surprised how often you type 10!

@Developers: please rename the app

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2021-05-05, version 1.6.2*

Too complicated. Features can’t find let alone work

### 1/5 — Not a fan

*2025-07-03*

Functions shown for app are not available on the version I’ve downloaded. Prefer previous version.

### 1/5 — I can’t log into the server

*2025-06-10*

First time trying to log remotely and the server is not working

### 1/5 — A lot to be desired.

*2025-06-10*

This new version is rubbish.  It’s failed 4 times in 2 weeks.  Times out and is inoperable, meaning I can’t operate the other functions.  Also cannot see when an alarm is in partial mode.  It’s not my phone or updates as I have a few friends with similar issues.  Would not recommend.

### 1/5 — Totally useless app

*2025-02-09*

This app is junk. Always connection and timing out problems. Doesn’t matter if you are using 5G or connected to the internet. It’s useless.

### 1/5 — Dashboard has disappeared

*2024-06-04*

When I initially installed the app, I had the full dashboard. Now, it has disappeared.  All I can see is whether the alarm is on or off. Can someone tell me how to resolve this?

### 1/5 — Pretty rubbish

*2023-11-23*

Not a great app, not much functionality doesn’t even ring when alarm goes off.

### 1/5 — Turd of the month award hands down

*2023-10-03, version 1.6.15*

Let me take time out of my busy schedule to explain something. You did not fix the unbelievably long delay until arm and disarm are engaged, even in version 2. I lead an app development team and they have one iron rule: write the functions that the app must fulfill and make these as responsive as possible. ANY other functions are secondary. Your app must immediately arm/disarm the security system, after checking credentials. That is all. Period. Anything else must be scrutinised again and again and then implemented so as not to cause the primary functions to be impaired. I don’t know which clown outfit you hired to write this app but they need to be replaced. And if you are the clown outfit, take a long hard look in the mirror. I won’t invoice you for this advise but you may contact me for some more product development advice and you can then pay me a consultancy fee.

### 1/5 — Can not remote arm/disarm alarm

*2022-12-12, version 1.6.11*

Went with this for the remote arm and disarm however does not work at all.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-08-24, version 1.6.11*

Tried to Arm from home and doesn’t work. Useless App

### 1/5 — App has never worked since installation.

*2022-07-02*

Tech support from Amentco/Permaconn but still unable to use App on my iPhone since initial installation. Nobody can understand it?!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-03-31*

Pocket Secure 2 is a really good app. As an installer I have set up many via Atlas & all my clients have been very happy.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2023-09-29*

Really impressed with the app upgrade, much improved from the old PS1

### 5/5 — Great App

*2021-07-06*

Works every time & easy to open via fingerprint, nice feature to see recent activity from my alarm system. Highly recommend this

### 5/5 — Now my alarm works with HomeKit.

*2021-05-04, version 1.6.2*

Thanks to this updated version of the app, I am now able to control my original house alarm with HomeKit (requires configuring and of course the optional 4G module), and didn’t have to change a thing or spend any more money!!  I can control it with multiple devices and use it in automations. This was a game changer for me, so thanks heaps PS2.0.

### 4/5 — Apple Watch

*2024-03-11*

Needs Apple Watch facilitie.

### 4/5 — Pocket Secure 2

*2023-05-13*

Excellent product, easy to use. 
The home remote is a great innovation.
The cameras pictures are very clear day or night.
Very happy with my choice.

### 3/5 — It’s just ok, not great

*2024-04-22*

I have come from a security provider who had a great app with iPhone widget and Apple Watch support, this app is what I have had issued by ny current provider. It’s just ok, I can turn my alarm system off and on remotely, it just needs a bit of polishing up to make it a great app.

### 3/5 — Wrong notification’s sent by app

*2023-04-03*

I have arm, disarm and panic mode enabled on my device.
When I set armed. The notification sent to all users is ‘panic alarm’ set by user 001.
Is there anything I can do to correct the notification to make it send the correct information!? 

Thanks

### 3/5 — Somethings not working properly

*2022-12-25*

When I first used this app I had the ability to arm and disarm the alarm system remotely, but for some reason this feature no longer works.
This was a great feature of  the system and should be reinstated.

### 3/5 — Works ok

*2022-12-24*

The periodic test reports (phone beeps) come through around midnight for me, if you turn off the comms in alerts you then don’t receive any alarm activations, not ideal
