Taking charge of your home’s security, automation, and energy consumption has never been more effortless, thanks to the smart home professionals at Vivint. Rather than navigating through countless screens to obtain the information you’re looking for, it’s now found in one convenient spot. Read more about Vivint HomeView and the additional updates to the Vivint App.

Oversee your Columbus home from a single location

As the name implies, HomeView offers a visual snapshot of your home, but it’s more than a simple image. This new feature is an interactive interface that lets you inspect the status of your devices and make adjustments as you wish. For example, if your garage door is up, you’ll find that reflected in the image and be able to lower it.

What is possible with Vivint HomeView?

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

  • Instantly disarm or arm your system
  • Unlock or secure smart door locks
  • Close or open your garage door
  • Adjust your smart thermostat
  • Switch smart lights and additional devices on or off
  • View real-time video footage from inside, exterior, and doorbell cameras 

It’s all in one convenient spot and easy to control. HomeView offers a clear overview of your smart home and indicates the current status of your tools, allowing you to catch security risks, such as an open garage, rapidly. When setting up this new tool, you can customize the color, siding, and roof of your virtual home to best match your real one. 

How to custom-tailor the Vivint App experience

Vivint allows you to fully customize the app experience. Add the HomeView image and then set up the My Home tab any way you prefer. In this user-friendly dashboard, you can rearrange tiles to reflect what matters most to you. For instance, you might want an easy-access button to disarm or arm your system first, followed by security sensors, cameras, and energy management. Everything from your surveillance video to smart lights is accessible in one spot. 

The improved Vivint App is part of every system, regardless of the plan you pick, and now includes a dark mode to boost visibility and lower eye strain in low-light settings.

Vivint helps you see the advantage of a smart and efficient home by transforming data and system info into useful insights. You can see how much energy you are saving, track outdoor and indoor temperatures, and more. You’ll even find suggestions on how to better optimize your home.
