Read full descriptionHide full description
AlarmSMS Controller is a simple, flexible GSM alarm control app for security systems that support SMS commands. Instead of typing the same SMS commands every time, you can create clean command buttons for your alarm system and use them whenever you need to arm, disarm, check status, activate stay mode, control siren functions, manage zones, or send any custom command supported by your GSM alarm panel. AlarmSMS Controller is not locked to one alarm brand. You can add your alarm phone number, create your own SMS commands, choose icons and colors, and organize everything in one easy-to-use interface. Main features: โข Control compatible GSM alarm systems by SMS โข Create custom arm, disarm, stay, status, siren, and zone commands โข Add multiple alarm profiles โข Save alarm phone numbers and command presets โข Choose icons and colors for each command โข Organize your most used security commands โข Works with many GSM alarm panels that accept SMS commands โข Backup and restore your setup โข No account required โข Data stored locally on your device Perfect for users who already have a GSM alarm panel and want a faster, cleaner way to send SMS control commands without remembering command codes manually. Important: AlarmSMS Controller does not monitor your alarm system, receive alarm events, or replace a professional security service. The app only helps you prepare and send SMS commands to compatible GSM alarm systems. SMS charges may apply depending on your mobile provider.
