So here's my honest take on Abode. I've tested a bunch of home security apps and this one's pretty good overall. The core features like arming, cameras, and alerts work well and it's easy to use. And i like that you can automate stuff too, although that part's a little clunky. Not gonna lie, the setup was a pain and I've had a few glitches here and there. But for the most part, it's a solid option if you want a comprehensive security system controlled by your phone.

Been using Abode for a couple months now. It’s basically a home security app that lets you control and monitor your whole system right from your phone. Pretty solid if you’re into that kinda thing.

Here’s what you do: you can arm and disarm your security system, check live video feeds, and see a timeline of what’s been happening. There’s also some home automation stuff – you can create rules to turn lights on and off and that kind of thing. Took me a while to figure all that out but it’s useful.

Look, if you’re into home security and automation, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the setup can be a pain and the app can be a bit buggy sometimes – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.

Not impressed with it. It is over-complicated and not at all intuitive. Also is somewhat unstable. Hub drops off line and needs to be power-cycled to reconnect. And yes, my...
