Taking charge of your home’s defense, automation, and energy consumption has never been easier, thanks to the smart home pros at Vivint. As opposed to searching through multiple screens to discover the info you need, it’s now available in one convenient location. Find out more about Vivint HomeView and the other updates to the Vivint App.

Control your Akron home from one place

Living up to its name, HomeView gives you a visual snapshot of your home, but it’s not just a simple image. This new tool is an interactive interface that lets you check the status of various equipment and make changes if needed. To illustrate, if your garage door is up, you’ll find that shown in the image and be able to shut it.

What can you do with Vivint HomeView?

From the interactive image, you can perform these actions:

  • Instantly disarm or arm your system
  • Secure or unlock smart door locks
  • Close or open your garage door
  • Change your smart thermostat settings
  • Switch smart lights and additional equipment on or off
  • View live video footage from outdoor, interior, and doorbell cameras 

It’s all in one convenient spot and easy to manage. HomeView provides an overview of your smart home and mirrors the real-time status of your equipment, letting you identify security risks, such as an unsecured window, rapidly. When setting up this new addition, you can choose the siding, color, and roof of your digital home to coorelate with your actual home. 

How to personalize the Vivint App

Your experience in the Vivint App is completely customizable. Include the HomeView image and then arrange the My Home tab any way you want. In this easy-to-use dashboard, you can place tiles to reflect what’s most important to you. For example, you might want a quick-action button to arm or disarm your system first, followed by security sensors, video cameras, and energy usage. Everything from your camera video to your thermostat is available in one place. 

The updated Vivint App comes with all systems, no matter the package you choose, and now includes a dark mode to improve visibility and lower eye strain in low-light settings.
