ADT Control ®

Remote control for an ADT security system

ADT Control is a companion app for people who use a compatible ADT Command security and automation setup at home or at work. It puts common security controls and connected-device settings in one mobile interface, rather than limiting them to the panel on site.

Security controls away from the property

The app can be used to arm or disarm the system remotely and check status changes. Alerts can report events such as a door being unlocked, while supported camera equipment lets you view live video when you want to check what is happening.

• Arm or disarm the security system from a remote location
• Receive notifications about system changes and selected access events
• View live video through supported ADT equipment

Connected home and business controls

For setups with compatible devices, ADT Control also handles practical automation tasks. You can switch lights, lock or unlock doors, and adjust a smart thermostat. Those controls suit households, offices, and other properties where access, lighting, or temperature may need attention when nobody is on site.

Scenes, schedules, and app record

Scenes combine several actions into a single command, such as changing security, lights, and temperature when you leave or arrive. Schedules can apply those settings at selected times. A vacation setup can vary lighting and other connected devices to make an unoccupied property appear active.

The listing comes from ADT LLC in the Lifestyle category. It has a 4.6 rating from more than 136,000 reviews and records 1,000,000+ installs. Its usefulness depends on having the corresponding ADT service and compatible connected hardware; by itself, it is not a standalone alarm system.
