The My Verisure app serves as the primary remote control and monitoring interface for your Verisure home security system. It allows you to arm, disarm, check status, and configure alarm settings from any smartphone or tablet. This digital companion is designed for homeowners and renters alike, offering peace of mind and convenient management of their home security.

The key value of the My Verisure app lies in its ability to provide real-time control and awareness. Users can quickly check the alarm status, review event history, and even communicate through monitored entry points, integrating security management seamlessly into their daily routine and enhancing overall home safety effortlessly.

App Features

• Arm/Disarm Control: Easily arm or disarm your alarm system with a single tap, whether you’re at home, at work, or out running errands. This immediate control offers peace of mind when leaving the house and convenience upon returning, preventing accidental deactivation or providing timely protection.
• Alarm Status Monitoring: Provides a clear, real-time view of your alarm system’s status (Armed/Disarmed, Away/Stay, system faults). This instant feedback helps you understand your security posture instantly, ensuring you know whether your home is protected without needing to interpret complex codes or manuals.
• Event History Review: Access a log of all security events, including alarm activations, sensor triggers, system errors, and communication attempts. This detailed record allows homeowners to review activity for suspicious behaviour or system issues, providing valuable insights and aiding in the investigation of potential security incidents.
• Geofence Management: Set up geofences on your smartphone, automatically arming or disarming the alarm based on your location. This feature saves time and prevents mistakes by aligning security actions directly with your movements, ensuring you’re always protected without manual input.
• Camera View Access: If you have Verisure cameras, the app allows you to view live feeds, recordings, and receive motion alerts directly on your phone. This integration enhances situational awareness by providing visual verification of activity, making remote monitoring more effective and proactive.
• Remote Communication Feature: For monitored entries, you can initiate communication with the security center directly from the app during an alarm event or routine check-in. This advanced functionality offers direct interaction with monitoring operators, streamlining communication and providing immediate assistance when needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I first set up and connect my My Verisure app?

A: To set up My Verisure, download the app from your device’s app store. You’ll need your Verisure system user code and access details. During setup, you’ll link your account, calibrate the mobile device with your security system, and personalize settings like notification preferences.

Q: Can I arm my alarm while I’m away from home using My Verisure?

A: Yes, remote arming and disarming are core functions of the My Verisure app. You can easily activate or deactivate your alarm system using the app’s interface, provided you are connected to the internet and have the necessary permissions.

Q: Do I need an internet connection to use basic features of My Verisure?

A: A stable internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data) is required for almost all My Verisure features, including remote control and status monitoring. However, your home security system itself needs its own communication link (cellular or landline) for direct communication with the alarm monitoring center, separate from your internet connection.

Q: Can I view footage from my Verisure cameras directly within My Verisure?

A: Absolutely. If you have Verisure cameras integrated with your system, the app provides access to live camera feeds, recorded clips, and alerts. You can review footage directly on your phone or tablet using the app’s dedicated camera view section.

Q: What happens if my smartphone battery dies while I’m away and my alarm is armed?

A: The My Verisure app requires your phone’s power to function remotely. Should your phone die while you’re outside, you won’t be able to control or monitor the alarm. However, your physical security system should continue operating normally via its dedicated communication channel, and you can regain control once your phone is recharged or connected to power.
