Continuing the discussion from Smart Alarm is here : Update 05/18/2016: Please note that Smart Alarm is provided as is and is no longer supported by the developer. Smart Alarm users are advised to switch to Smart Home Monitor (SHM) , the native home security application developed and supported by Sm…

OK first off I have not had good luck with using my iPhone as presence as sometimes location or status is not correct. Location is within a 500’ circle so if I leave the house I can be 1000 feet away and then the alarm would arm. I could be at a neighbor and the presence would say I am home and disa…

I have the same problem. Every once in a while, my siren will go off after I’m home, and it’s super frustrating trying to get SA to disarm properly.

Anyone know if is possible in SA to set a Timeout on the siren after an intrusion has been triggered? lets say like after 5 min the Siren shuts off. As of now will it keeps beeping forever until you disarmed? I was looking on the SA source but was not able to find a timeout for the siren.

Thanks Geko, I learn something every day. Thanks for a great app. I sure does work better than the SHM.

Thanks Geko! :thumbsup: I also saw a post where you mention that is not configurable. [image] Smart Alarm 2.4 Is Available The alarm is reset 3 minutes after activation. It’s not configurable

Delays aside, are there any reliability advantages for Smart Alarm over Smart Home Monitor? Until the recent issues, SHM had been very reliable for me, but I’m wondering if there’s any reason to try to switch to Smart Alarm. Would it have worked through the recent SHM instability? Does it offer a…

I love SA but In the situation we are in with the servers you can’t depend on it for an alarm unless everything is running locally. All my contacts on my doors, all my motion detectors are running local, but my Siren and leak detector are on the IDE, so I wouldn’t trust it right now.

I also have no presence sensors so I use a keypad to disarm or routines, but they aren’t dependable now either.
