Honeywell recently announced an update to the iOS App for Honeywell Total Connect 2.0 that simplifies set-up while bringing all of the power and capability of the Honeywell Total Connect website to Apple® iPad and iPad mini® devices. Providing the same user experience, features and functionality across Web and iPad applications extends the value and reach of Honeywell Total Connect, the award-winning solution that lets consumers use mobile devices to remotely control their security systems, lights, thermostats, locks, view cameras and receive important email and video notifications.
The new app lets dealers and end-users configure systems directly on the iPad and offers simplified video set-up with built-in help guides for configuring cameras and defining video detection areas. Users can also quickly and easily create customised scenes to automate their home environment.
“We’re incredibly excited about our latest update to the Honeywell Total Connect app. It brings all of the capability of the web, and puts it into the mobile devices that are now users’ primary interface to their connected homes,” said Alan Stoddard, senior marketing director, Honeywell Security Products Americas. “With the growing interest in remote video monitoring in the home, this new application offers a simpler, yet more powerful, tool to manage cameras, analytics and scene creation.”
iPhone® and iPod touch® users will also enjoy an enhanced user experience. The app improves live video viewing by supporting landscape rotation and Wi-Fi® signal strength indicators for Honeywell Total Connect cameras.
