Horrible

Consistently loses connections and support claims it’s an Internet or Wi-Fi problem but no other devices in entire home have this problem.

It’s always this device only this device.

Save your money

No bill savings at all and I purchased 4 for my 1800 sq ft home. I will be returning the product!!!!!!

Woke Me

Woke me up at 3:20 in the morning to tell me that my Internet was down for about 10 minutes. Totally unnecessary and you can’t turn that alert off. You can pause it, but you can’t turn it off. I’m a light sleeper and could not get back to sleep. It’s enough to make me stop using this device.

App works fine, service is atrocious

Issues occurring for months before monitoring service reaches out with urgent request for information. At 7AM on a Monday morning. Do not recommend unless all you want is to see what’s happening. Monitoring service is awful.

Weird

Not sure it really does anything. State Farm says they are giving me a discount for having it but I don’t see it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
