Once you become a HomeSecure customer you get free use of the APP that not only will allow you to set your alarm from anywhere, one of the most essential features of this app is the Panic Button. Once pressed, the emergency services will be alerted by the monitoring station.  The panic button on the can almost act as a GPS locator as it will send your location to other App users when used.

Unlike other alarm security providers, this feature is unique to HomeSecure. Recently, the panic button was used after a woman fell at home, she could not make it to her keypad and was severely injured. By using the panic alert function, it allowed emergency services to respond in record time. Another situation where it could be helpful is if you are ever in danger and can’t talk on the phone. The App allows you press down on the button, which will then connect you to the Monitoring station who will alert the emergency services.

If you needed another reason to choose HomeSecure for protection, bar the low monitoring fee this could be it! Not only will you be protected while at home but now on the go. Say you are on a jog and injured yourself, or on a hike and got lost, the App sends your GPS location to other App users, giving you that extra peace of mind!  

To use this feature, simply follow these simple steps.

  • Open the HomeSecure App.
  • Check if you are on the Control Tab.
  • On the bottom left of the panel, press down on the ‘panic’ icon.
