STAY CONNECTED WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY SMANOS HUB

*2023-02-09, version 3.1.2*

Issue 1: Our K2 Hub shows offline and cannot get back to work and there is no way to reset, hence our entire security system including Motion sensors, indoor and outdoor sirens, window/door detectors are going in the bin

Issue 2: Smanos system doesn’t provide trouble shoot and solution. The company doesn’t provide technical support. We tried contacting them by their default email address in China, no response whatsoever 

Issue 3: Smanos states their devices can be connected up to 80m open air, ours cannot even connect within 80cm. Also there are many limitations such as signal cannot through timber floor, brick walls, even cannot pass through more than 2 layers of plasterboard stud walls!

Issue 4: we have set up 5 motion detectors and never had them all connected online together!

Summary: Smanos DIY security system is a waste of time and money, useless and unreliable, they wouldn’t make your home safer than a dummy alarm

### 2/5 — The accessories keep fluctuating between online and offline

*2022-09-04, version 3.1.2*

Using IPhone X and latest ios, and k2 DIY set. Everything set up ok and appears online. But keep fluctuate between online and offline once unreliable.

### 2/5 — El modo campana no funciona

*2022-08-28, version 3.1.2*

Tengo la alarma K1 funcionaba bien hasta que un dia dejó de funcionar el modo campana de aviso para cuando se abrian las puertas. Por favor arreglen eso.

### 4/5 — Smanos K2

*2021-09-03, version 3.1.0*

Good system overall however the literature is a bit light on regarding all the details. The screen shots too show what is most likely an earlier app version in the online manual.

Mind you its enough to get you started but I’d personally would have liked to have seen more detail for the door/window switch. It was simple for a double door as it goes on like the pictures but not so for a typical door with jambs. I’ll be calling the service line regarding this aspect of the installation.

I especially like the fine tuning and being able to arm and disarm the K2 with my phone.

### 1/5 — Waste of time and money

*2020-01-01, version 3.0.4*

App doesn’t work just says the alarm is offline has been a total waste of money wouldn’t recommend

### 1/5 — Hardware not supported

*2019-12-16*

It has a Not Supported list. My L020 wasn’t listed. So I downloaded and found out it’s not supported.

### 3/5 — Pas mal sauf que..

*2019-07-31, version 2.8.5*

Bonjour,l’alarme et l’application en soit sont bien,sauf que lorsque l’alarme s’enclenche,il faut relancer plusieurs fois l’application pour que celle ci veuille bien finir par s’ouvrir..impossible donc le cas echeant de prendre en flag si on passe les 2-3 premières minutes a essayer en vain de lancer l’application pour accéder aux caméras etc..
Et ce n’est pas un probleme de reseau car meme chez moi cela bug a ce niveau et j’ai 980Mbps..
Vraiment dommage..a corriger rapidement,en attendant tout juste 3 étoiles et encore car l’appli perd tout son sens de par ce bug/ralentissement..
Merci de m’avoir lu✌🏼

### 5/5 — Great support

*2019-07-03, version 2.8.5*

Had a great experience with support when reported bug in software - a few messages back and forth resulted in app being promptly fixed and fully functional again.

### 1/5 — Fix this app!

*2019-07-02, version 2.8.4*

This is still not fixed, I can’t even tell if my alarm has been turned off or not - this is our security and can’t even tell if it’s off or on. FIX THIS ASAP!

### 1/5 — Big mistake buying K2

*2019-07-01, version 2.8.4*

Your recent update on iOS shows my K2 is offline, doesn’t update history, Don’t receive any notification, Can Arm and disarm with the buttons underneath the offline message.
