Managing your home’s automation, security, and energy usage has never been simpler, thanks to the smart home professionals at Vivint.

Control your Rochester home from one place

Living up to its name, HomeView gives you a visual overview of your home, but it’s more than just a picture. This new enhancement is an interactive interface that permits you to inspect the status of your devices and make modifications if needed. For example, if your garage door is open, you’ll see that displayed in the app and be able to shut it.

How can you use Vivint HomeView?

From the interactive Vivint HomeView image, you can do the following:

  • Easily arm or disarm your system
  • Secure or unlock smart door locks
  • Close or open your garage door
  • Change your smart thermostat settings
  • Toggle smart lights and additional devices off or on
  • Watch real-time video footage from inside, exterior, and doorbell cameras 

It’s all in one place and easy to manage. HomeView offers a clear overview of your smart home and reflects the real-time status of your equipment, letting you identify safety concerns, such as an unlocked door, quickly. When setting up this new tool, you can select the color, siding, and roof of your virtual home to best match your real home. 

How to personalize the Vivint App

Your experience in the Vivint App is fully customizable. Include the HomeView tool and then set up the My Home tab any way you prefer. In this user-friendly dashboard, you can place tiles to reflect what’s most important to you. For example, you might want a quick-action button to disarm or arm your system in the first spot, followed by security sensors, cameras, and energy usage. Everything from your camera footage to your thermostat is all in one place. 

The upgraded Vivint App comes with all systems, regardless of the package you pick, and now comes with a dark mode to enhance visibility and reduce eye strain in low-light situations.
