Telguard HomeControl

Love this app, saves going to check if our system is armed after we leave the house. Will check in to cameras next. Don't mind having to log in due to the fact that if your phone gets into the wrong hands then what? They can disarm your system and enter your house, no use having a password for your alarm system.

Horrible!! I never leave comments, ever, but this app is truly that horrible! Have to log in EVERY time, even if you use the keep me signed in feature. This app has the same functionality as the first app ever created. Archaic. At least fix the sign in feature.

This app is so slow. For an app that does one thing, and one thing only, it is incredibly slow. Logs me out nearly every time, can't set a pin like on the iOS version, it's nearly useless. It's 10 times quicker to go inside to the control panel from the driveway than it is to try and use the app. It's 20 times quicker to go to the control panel than to use the app from anywhere inside the house. Apparently the designers do not care either since EVERY REVIEW SAYS THE EXACT SAME THING FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS!!

Can't stay logged in you have to keep putting in your password. No way to arm with no entry delay. Would be nice to see users names who is arming and disarming the system only showes code slot. Would be nice if you could set up screen pops to alert you if certain zones are tripped or if alarm is tripped. So out dated can't believe there is such limited options and features. When are you going to add features. Not worth the extra money it costs to have this installed and the added monthly costs

If I could give this app & it's developers zero stars, I would. My app is no longer working. I can't arm/disarm from the app or the website any longer. I pay extra for this worthless app. I am also having a hard time getting in touch with someone to see if we can figure out what's wrong with it. I have uninstalled it & re-installed it several times, but nothing works. It was working fine one day, then the next day nothing. I had to set the alarm off the other day when I came home (my daughter had set it for no entry delay because she was here alone).

Wish there was more available options with this. Suppose to get emails and text saying who checked in and when and I get alerts late and only numbers showing no names

This does work. Does not show motion sensors properly. Also needs to log in each day.

Will give a better rating when bugs are fixed. Banner at bottom of screen says Bus Control trouble and warning symbol (big exclamation mark), appears on the screen. Have spoken to Alarm Company and they have carried full diagnostic check at the monitoring station and checked system in my house throughout finding no fault. Update app please to fix bugs. Emailled the website for the app today and received instant reply that email could not be sent and or received as it only accepts emails from people on its s

I would like the feature like the iphone app has where create a pin code and keeps you logged for 30 days i hate to keep login in every 24 hours and also like the option for push notifications as well i use this app frequently and hate that login every 24 hours

Crap. Doesn't keep me logged in even though I check the box. Very basic. Lags.

This app is junk. Doesn't unlock my system from outside of my home, never seems to be able to communicate with the alarm system panel. Junk it app and start from scratch on a new app.

This app has potential. I should not have to log in almost every time I use this app. The 24 hour login feature does not always work.

Homecontrol deliver great trust and a better way for us to activate and shut down our security. No more panic due to forgotten codes and only 15 seconds before being declared a burglar.

This app Never geats updates/tweaks or facelift of any kind Never updated so if you have this service I suggest Looking for a better alternative Home Security and automation, Just my opinion.

I'm constantly having to sign back in and sometimes unable to use the app because it cannot connect to the security panel.

I really dislike this app. Since we downloaded this app it works and then won't. Says it's armed but it's not and won't disarm. Needs lots of improving.

Very basic. Most of the time fine for arming and disarming. No other reliable features. The app needs a functionality face-lift.

It does work though I really like how fast it transmits signals it should be able to bypass phones remotely with your phone app it does not allow it at least the app I have what should do it as far as I'm concerned any app that controls an alarm panel should let you unless you do not have permission to bypass them because I have to either Drive 20 miles back to the shop or leave my system disarmed for the night

Unstable, low functionality, times out continuously (supposed to be one day but it happens all the time) I have reloaded it multiple times. There is no need to reenter password every twenty four hours, smart phones have passwords. Only suggestion is that the company fires the moron who created it and that person goes home and kills him /herself

HATE that I have to log in almost EVERY time, too time consuming. My phone is locked only I can unlock it, shouldn't have to log in EVERY time. Thought I could set up text alerts.... To confirm the system was armed, disarmed, who disarmed it, etc... Not available at least I couldn't find where to initiate it.

Everytime I use the app,I sign in and click keep me signed in yet it does not work. What a pain when I use it several times a day

Always have to log in. Is very slow to connect & function. Easier to use a fob

This is the worst app I every installed on my phone..

Pretty cool app at first but the security part doesn't work most of the time , which makes me wonder if the camera views are working properly.

It does what is made for, however lacking user friendliness by way of having to log in just about every time I use it. Would be nice to permanently be logged in or have a pin or swipe pattern for quick access to arm/disarm.

This app is missing basic functionality such as:-- have to log in every time, the iOS version let's you set a PIN. Still not fixed in 12/21/15 version. No system wide log - cant see when the alarm was last armed/disarmed. Note: This software is from iControl, which is used for many cable security systems and ADT pulse. The telguard version appears to be a bit behind the ADT version. The android version is also behind the iOS version. The web portal is a lot more useful.

This app could be so much better. With the amount of people that rely on and use this app on a daily basis it should definitely be more user friendly. The first and most noticeable problem with this app is that you must log in constantly. To me this is plain annoying and completely inconvenient. Someone should fix this issue immediately. Could probably help your ratings drastically. The other issue I see with this app is that it just plain lacks visual appeal. Other apps in this category nailed it. Ucan2

This app lets me turn on/off and see about 2days of activity. No option to receive alerts, or to log certain types of events etc. Very limited, so much more it could do.

The app looks like it was built for Android 2.0 and is very very basic. You can arm and disarm, that's about it. It also constantly forgets my login even tho I tell it to save it. The iOS version has the ability to setup a PIN so you don't have to re-login constantly. It's shameful how terrible this app is.

Great App, but must stay current on bug fixes.

This has to be the worst app I have ever seen. Why is it the iOS app has so many more features? Why does the android version log you out every other time you use the app? Why does it take over 2 minutes to view one of your cameras live? This is ridiculous given what we pay our security company for something so poorly done and what's the most frustrating thing is that so many other users are saying the same thing and the developer does nothing about it nor acknowledges the issues. Fix this please!

IOS version allows 30days log in vs android which allows 24hours, both versions should mirror each other.

Slow. Not connecting when needed. Not saving clips since MONTHS ago. Live camera doesn't work 70% of the time.

Will give a better rating when bugs are fixed. Banner at bottom of screen says Bus Control trouble and warning symbol (big exclamation mark), appears on the screen.

It really is a pain to have to relog in every time you open this and it is slow. The video is fine, but otherwise I don't care for this app.

This app needs major update, it's too simple .

Same feedback as others: the save password doesn't work consistently, and iOS users are able to use it fine. I can't replace my password with a PIN. I can't see a log of enabling/disabling the system. These features are standard on current iOS devices and should provide the same functionality for current Android devices.

Great when it works right, which is about 50/50

It's great if you just want to be certain your system is armed, or arm or disarm. That is all I really need it for.
