App Offers Users More Control

September 7, 2015

With the Arming app, users can have just the basic features: arm/disarm, change settings, notifications and history. It’s the starter version of mobile control designed to be inexpensive. Virtual Keypad 4.6 users now have the option to set up a widget on the Today Notification screen. This will allow users to choose a favorite to activate with this widget without logging into the app. Up to five different favorites may be added to the widget screen. The widget is set up in the app settings screen. Users can now change their password directly on their smartphone in the app settings screen. The Rooms feature allows users to take a picture of an area or room, or view the room from a live camera stream and place hotspots in the photo to control Z-Wave devices.
