ADT Pulse Customer Insights

1. The whole purpose of me getting the pulse piece of this was to be able to disarm the alarm from my phone if I needed toThe app no longer allows you to watch recorded clips in landscape mode on my android phone or my wife's iPhone.

2. About to Uninstall and reinstall again.Occasionally the app won't connect, and the way that I was instructed to correct this issue, is to disconnect the electrical power source, open the panel, then disconnect the internal battery.

3. After contacting ADT support, I was told that this is how the latest version is designed, and no adjustments can be made until a future version with the fix is availableSince 6:20am I am continually receiving a "login failure 500" error message on this app that the server is unable to complete my request and try again in a few minutes.

4. I'm having to login from the website to turn the alarm off and on to avoid getting up each time and going to the panel.

5. It is also slow to connect, compared to my vivint system.Looks like I'm not the only one having connection issues.

6. As a result, I cannot arm or disarm the alarm.App is pretty easy to use and I can't really recall any issues of it crashing or freezing on me.

7. In response to the developer's request for more information: the app does not connect with the system.

8. There hasn't been an update available since November 2022 and clearly there's an issue with the app itself.Since the latest upgrade, it is difficult to access the system.

9. i have reinstalled the ap, unplugged the system, per tech support, opened the panel and disconnected the plug to the board.

10. The point of the app was to be able to connect and disconnect remotely and now we cannot do that.

11. Indoor camera itself is horrible better off getting your own that's compatible with the app.Constantly won't connect.
