User Reviews :
Easy to install and user friendly interface
I installed the system 2 weeks ago. It was easy to setup.
The image quality on the cameras (internal and external) is excellent.
We will see how the system keeps up but at the moment I’m very pleased with Somfy.
Better
Our first camera went belly up. They replaced it-no cost. The new one has been working for over two years. Initially the software interface wasn’t properly syncing when my wife and I were setting alarm from 2 phones. They seem to have fixed that with a system wide software update. They’re based in France. So Customer support is awkward at best.
Best Protection App
Very good app! I strongly suggest it for your home protection! Even children can access it (arm and disarm the system)! If you get a key fob, your children can use the system even without a phone. This app and entire Somfy system is great!
Exactly what I was hoping for
App has worked almost flawlessly…. Motion detection gives a great sense of security when away from home and works very well!! Only negative so far is not being able to deactivate alarm when lights go out or internet connection is lost.
Developer Response,
Dear Htre1:
Thank you for this review. In case of a power outage and an internet connection lost, you will be able to deactivate the alarm if you have a Home Alarm or Somfy One Plus system with a keyfob, as the product still works locally thanks to the 6 hours built-in battery.
For other systems, as the communication with our servers would be lost, you would have to reconnect the system to the internet in order to deactivate the alarm.

Monitoring option gone and customer support is lacking.
Works ok, but ever since they switched to Somfy, I can no longer sign up for monitoring services in the US. Calling their support team in France ended up costing me in long distance fees.
Myfox App is great!
I started with the Myfox camera only, and the usage and UI of the app and the camera was very smooth. A few days later I decided I’d go for the alarm system as well, and it all ties in together perfectly. Very good app, very good product! I’ll be buying a few more accessories to fully cover my apartment doors and windows.
