Alarm.com Places Overview
Easy, Location-Based Home Automation Rules and Reminders
Alarm.com Places makes it easy for customers to set up smart home automation rules and reminders based on the location of the user’s smartphone.
Customers can add, edit, and delete Geo-Fences directly within the app and set up location-based rules to automate devices like lights, switches, thermostats, and garage openers.
A default Home location will appear for all users and will have a Geo-Fence surrounding the account’s home address.
Note: Rule creation is only available on the Alarm.com customer website.
Available on the Alarm.com customer website and Alarm.com app, Alarm.com Places significantly upgrades the user experience and reinforces the value of a fully
connected Alarm.com system.
