Location Based Alerts for Connected Car and Connected Fleet
Connected Car and Connected Fleet customers can receive location-based alerts when a vehicle on their Alarm.com account travels inside or outside a designated Geo-Fence. These real-time alerts provide vehicle owners and fleet managers with greater insight into their vehicles' locations and allow them to take action if a vehicle is driven outside of an approved area.
Requirements
- An Alarm.com Car Connector
- Alarm.com Alarm.com app version 5.5.1+ for Android or 5.5.3+ for iOS
Features
- Customers are notified once a vehicle enters or exits a certain Geo-Fence for real-time awareness of a vehicle's movement
- A Home(i.e., Connected Car) or On-Site (i.e., Connected Fleet) Geo-Fence is automatically created around the primary address on an account
- Up to 20 Geo-Fences can be configured using Alarm.com Places
- As residential customers with Connected Car are coming and going from home, they can:
- Take action directly from location-based push notifications to run Home and Away Scenes
- Get on-screen location-based alerts to effortlessly run Home and Away Scenes right from their car display with Android Auto™. For more information, see Alarm.com for Android Auto™ Overview.
