LifeShield Security has extended the availability of its LifeView by including Android tablets and smartphones, as well as the Apple iPhone, so customers can manage their LifeShield home security system from their preferred mobile device.

LifeView’s new portal enables total interactivity with the LifeShield home security system through a simple interface with graphics and instinctual navigation that allows users of all ages to manage their home security system from their iPad, iPhone, Android tablet or Android smartphone.

Within the LifeView app, users manage their system via the console tab which is colour-coded, easy to read and shows the status of every sensor and users can view the 20 most recent events instantly. If a user has cameras installed, the LifeView app will also take snapshots when the app is launched so the user can instantly view current images from every camera installed throughout the home.

LifeView’s user interface also allows customers to log in to access every LifeShield system setting and the console tab, users can access the camera tab for all pictures and videos, as well as the ability to view live video, and the history tab to scan the last 90 days of history.

Users can also arm the system with one touch and quickly disarm the system via user code, create new event notifications and camera triggers, and add or remove users any time.

LifeShield’s next generation home security system offers encrypted wireless technology that allows for easy set-up, a lower cost of ownership and free, customisable monitoring options.

LifeShield Security founder and COO Lou Stilp said LifeShield’s enhanced application opens the door for iPhone, tablet and smartphone users to fully control their LifeShield system from their portable or handheld device.

"This is the same app we recently announced to the Apple iPad community – so it delivers the same superior user interface that attaches to the customer and not their house. There is no other home security company that offers as many functions in a single application as the LifeView app," said Stilp.
