The app does the bare minimum, and does it without ads. That's fine, but now the Android widget doesn't work anymore. So no more one-tap icon to arm/disarm the alarm system.

App has received no real updates in years. Functionality is a bare minimum and now the Android widget (there's only one) no longer works.

Scout Alarm told me that the equipment i bought from them totaling over $200 was too old and out of date. I put it in storage for a couple years so it was behind on updates and wouldn't connect to their servers. They told me its now a paperweight and refused to provide me with manual firmware update option.

Nice app to control entire alarm system. Both in home (wi fi ) and from anywhere you go via smart phone. No ads within the app.
