Taking charge of your home’s defense, automation, and energy usage has never been more effortless, thanks to the smart home experts at Vivint. As opposed to clicking through numerous screens to find the information you want, it’s now available in one convenient place. Learn more about Vivint HomeView and the other new updates to the Vivint App.

Oversee your Houston home from one place

True to its name, HomeView provides a visual snapshot of your home, but it’s not just a simple image. This new enhancement is an easy-to-use interface that allows you to check the status of your devices and make modifications as you wish. For instance, if your garage door is open, you’ll see that displayed in HomeView and be able to close it.

How can you use Vivint HomeView?

From the interactive Vivint HomeView image, you can take the following actions:

  • Instantly arm or disarm your system
  • Secure or unlock smart door locks
  • Close or open your garage door
  • Update your smart thermostat
  • Toggle smart lights and additional components off or on
  • Check real-time video streams from interior, exterior, and doorbell cameras 

It’s all in one place and a breeze to manage. HomeView gives you a snapshot of your smart home and mirrors the current status of your tools, letting you catch security risks, such as an unsecured window, quickly. When getting started with this new tool, you can select the siding, color, and roof of your digital house to best match your real home. 

How to custom-tailor the Vivint App experience

Vivint allows you to fully customize the app experience. Include the HomeView image and then set up the My Home tab any way you want. In this user-friendly dashboard, you can arrange tiles so what’s most important to you is given priority. To illustrate, you might want an easy-access button to disarm or arm your system in the first spot, followed by security sensors, surveillance, and energy management. Everything from your surveillance footage to your thermostat is accessible in one place. 

The updated Vivint App is part of every system, no matter the package you pick, and now includes a dark mode to enhance visibility and decrease eye strain in low-light situations.

Vivint helps you recognize the value of a smart and efficient home by converting data and system info into useful insights. You can see how much energy you are saving, evaluate outdoor and indoor temperatures, and more. You’ll even get suggestions on how to optimize your home further.
