Arming in home mode with a door open...
When arming my alarm system in home mode with a door open the base station says "warning door open" after announcing that the system is armed.
My house is fairly large so I can't always hear the base station but I definitely want to know that I've armed the system with a door open. I think the app
(which notifies me that I've armed the system) should also warn me that I've armed the system and that there's a door open. I turned on text notifications
but it doesn't give any indication that I've armed the system with a door open.
I'd appreciate if the app were enhanced, if the base station is warning me, please send that warning to the app also!
Thanks,
/Ed

Thanks for the suggestion, Ed!
I've forwarded it to our engineering team for consideration.

It is a subtle thing but IMO very important.

2. When I armed system or entering the armed system there should be reasonable audible beeping that reminds you that you are leaving or disarm the system. I am missing this features the most.
3. is there any way to adjust the camera lens of door bell to view better coverage.

When arming your system in Home or Away Mode, you do already get a warning when an Entry Sensor is open. But that will not prevent the system from continuing to arm - that is intentional, so you can leave windows or doors open if you want to (for example, if you want to keep a window open to let the breeze in while you sleep).
Along with the voice prompt, you'll also get a notification on the Keypad screen with detailed info about each sensor.
The Keypad does also produce a countdown chirp, both while arming (in Away Mode), and when a sensor is triggered in both modes.
If you can't quite hear the Keypad from where you're entering, we also have the Wireless Siren - which can relay countdown chirps and door chimes, as well as the main alarm siren.
