Configure Notification Recipients

Keep Family Members in the Know

Make sure important alerts aren’t missed! Add family members and trusted friends as notification recipients so you’re covered, even when you’re away from your phone. You can add recipients when you first create a notification or edit an existing notification to change the recipients at any time. Overall, this can help others monitor your home security system.

  • Add existing logins or new contacts
  • Customize how recipients are notified–via push message (only available for existing logins), SMS, or email
  • Configure recipients for all notification types, including system alerts, video, and more
