Keeping track of your home’s automation, security, and energy consumption has never been more effortless, thanks to the smart home professionals at Vivint. As opposed to searching through numerous screens to find the details you need, it’s now available in one convenient place. Find out more about Vivint HomeView and the other new updates to the Vivint App.

Oversee your Gainesville home from one location

Just like the name suggests, HomeView gives you a visual snapshot of your home, but it’s more than just a picture. This new enhancement is an interactive interface that permits you to view the status of your devices and make changes as needed. For instance, if your garage door is up, you’ll see it displayed in the image and be able to shut it.

How can you use Vivint HomeView?

From the interactive image, you can do the following:

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

It’s all in one place and a breeze to navigate. HomeView provides a snapshot of your smart home and reflects the current status of your equipment, letting you catch security risks, such as an open garage, rapidly. When setting up this new addition, you can select the color, siding, and roof of your digital residence to reflect your real home. 

How to custom-tailor the Vivint App

Vivint lets you fully customize the app experience. Include the HomeView feature and then set up the My Home tab however you prefer. In this user-friendly dashboard, you can arrange tiles to reflect what matters most to you. For example, you might want an easy-access button to disarm or arm your system in the most prominent spot, followed by security sensors, surveillance, and energy usage. Everything from your lighting to surveillance footage is accessible in one location. 

The updated Vivint App is part of every system, regardless of the package you pick, and now features a dark mode to enhance visibility and lower eye strain in dim lighting.
