Person utilizing the HomeView tool in the Vivint app to find insights into automation, security, and energy usage.

Managing your home’s security, automation, and energy consumption has never been simpler, thanks to the smart home professionals at Vivint. Instead of clicking through countless screens to find the info you need, it’s now accessible in one convenient location. Read more about Vivint HomeView and the other updates to the Vivint App.

Oversee your Austin home from one spot

True to its name, HomeView gives you a visual representation of your home, but it’s more than just a picture. This new feature is an interactive interface that allows you to inspect the status of your devices and make adjustments as you wish. To illustrate, if your garage door is open, you’ll notice that displayed in HomeView and be able to lower it.

What can you do with Vivint HomeView?

From the interactive Vivint HomeView image, you can take the following tasks:

  • Instantly arm or disarm your system
  • Secure or unlock smart door locks
  • Open or shut your garage door
  • Adjust your smart thermostat
  • Toggle smart lights and other connected devices on or off
  • Watch live video footage from interior, outdoor, and doorbell cameras 

It’s all in one convenient location and simple to navigate. HomeView offers a snapshot of your smart home and indicates the real-time status of your equipment, helping you identify security risks, such as an open garage, swiftly. When setting up this new addition, you can choose the siding, color, and roof of your digital home to best match your real one. 

How to customize the Vivint App experience

Vivint allows you to fully customize the app experience. Include the HomeView image and then arrange the My Home tab however you like. In this user-friendly dashboard, you can rearrange tiles so what’s most important to you is front and center. To illustrate, you might want a quick-action button to disarm or arm your system first, followed by cameras, security sensors, and energy management. Everything from your smart lights to camera footage is available in one spot. 

The updated Vivint App is part of every system, no matter the package you pick, and now includes a dark mode to boost visibility and lower eye strain in low-light settings.
