Alarm.com adds a whole bunch of features into its ecosystem with its latest update. Taking part in the Actions on Google platform, Alarm.com users can now add their system to Google Assistant’s Assistant apps section. One way you can activate this is by saying, “OK Google, talk to Alarm.com.” Once you’ve authenticated the credentials, you’ll get a lot of features to work with.
These include being able to lock and unlock doors and garage doors, arm and disarm security systems, change thermostat temperature, control individual or grouped lights, and even ask about the state of any light, lock, or thermostat connected to the site. For those concerned about security, Alarm.com provides an optional setting for a 4-digit PIN code you’ll need to say to perform these potentially compromising actions. If you want a more direct approach to controlling your devices at home, you can also download the Alarm.com app.
