ADT announced several new and innovative product features, partnerships, and industry firsts at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) that continue to push the company beyond the bounds of traditional alarm systems. One of those industry firsts is ADT’s partnership with Ford Motor Co., which will allow ADT Pulse users to control aspects of their home using voice commands through the Ford SYNC AppLink.
This year, the two apps will become compatible, enabling drivers of an equipped Ford vehicle to have hands-free control using voice commands. Customers that have both SYNC AppLink and the ADT Pulse application will be able to use this functionality without an additional cost on either side. Ford’s SYNC AppLink is available on more than 1.5 million vehicles.
