MyJABLOTRON 2 - Alarm, cameras, and home automation in one app, optimized for iPad and Apple Watch as well. MyJABLOTRON 2 is not a full replacement to the original MyJABLOTRON app, but an entirely new generation with new capabilities. It currently supports the JA-100 and MERCURY systems, plus basic functions of FUTURA. We welcome your feedback and suggestions to help us improve the app further. [What MyJABLOTRON 2 offers] - Remote control — arm or disarm your entire system or individual sections. - System status — see the current state of your alarm and browse the event history. - Notifications — set alerts for alarms, faults, and other events via SMS, email, or push. - Home automation — control your system's programmable outputs. - Access sharing — share control with family, friends, or colleagues. - User management – on JA-100+/MERCURY control panels with a JABLOTRON SIM, rename a user, assign them a code or edit their phone number, directly in the app. - Temperature and energy — track readings with clear charts. - Cameras — live streams, recordings, and snapshots. - iPad mode — adapted screen layout for comfortable control on a larger display. - Apple Watch — control sections and automations, set the thermostat, and view temperature readings right from your wrist. [Getting started] Your security system needs to be registered with the JABLOTRON Cloud. If you've already received an invitation by email, sign in with that address. If not, contact your certified JABLOTRON partner to register your system. [A note on battery] While the app is open, it regularly checks your alarm's status to keep you informed. This may affect your phone's battery life.
