The Smart Protect Wireless Alarm System is an easy-to-use security system. It could connect to the Internet by LAN or WiFi, and use cellular SMS as backup reporting. The Smart Protect App allows you to control the alarm system at anytime from anywhere in real-time, including Arm, Disarm, Alarm (trigger SOS) or setting up the system. With the help of our IoT-networking protocol, the reaction speed would be amazingly fast, operating from App would just like operating via remote control. This App can manage all our security accessories like Contact Sensors, Motion Sensors, Remote Controls, CO Sensors, Gas Sensors, Smoke Detectors etc. It also works with Smart Cameras and Smart Plugs, which allow users to watch live video or recorded files, or turn ON/OFF the home appliances remotely. With built-in guidelines, users can run the system quickly even without manual, including daily operations and professional settings. When an unsafe event happens, like a break-in or pressing panic button, the system will alert all emergency contacts with push notifications and SMS texts, while generating siren sound to scare off any intruder. To provide the best experiences, this system and its App is upgradable, we will keep collecting feedbacks from users and release new firmware or App when needed.
