ADT Evolves Smarter Protection Beyond Your Front Door

April 16, 2026

ADT announced two exclusive additions to the ADT+ platform: Live Light, an illuminated, wireless yard sign that directly connects to the ADT+ system, and My Safety, a personal safety service in the ADT+ app that empowers customers with protection, connection and a network of shared safety.

Built to deliver smarter protection through ADT’s next-generation technology, ADT+ brings together purpose-built hardware, connected devices, professional monitoring and a unified digital experience into one fully integrated smart security ecosystem.

Live Light connects to the ADT+ system and illuminates during an alarm event, giving first responders an immediate visual signal and letting potential intruders know your home is actively protected.

My Safety transforms the ADT+ app into a direct line to ADT's nationwide monitoring network. A safety timer automatically escalates if a check-in is missed. It has direct-to-ADT, emergency text and emergency phrase capabilities.
