Manage your Virginia Beach home from one place

Living up to its name, HomeView provides a visual overview of your home, but it’s more than just a picture. This new enhancement is an interactive interface that lets you inspect the status of your equipment and make changes as you wish. To illustrate, if your garage door is open, you’ll notice that displayed in HomeView and be able to shut it.

How can you use Vivint HomeView?

From the HomeView image, you can do the following:

  • Instantly arm or disarm your system
  • Unlock or secure smart door locks
  • Open or close your garage door
  • Update your smart thermostat settings
  • Switch smart lights and other integrated equipment off or on
  • Watch real-time video streams from interior, outdoor, and doorbell cameras 

It’s all in one convenient location and a breeze to navigate. HomeView offers an overview of your smart home and indicates the real-time status of your devices, helping you identify security risks, such as an unlocked door, rapidly. When setting up this new tool, you can choose the color, siding, and roof of your virtual residence to reflect your real one. 

How to personalize the Vivint App experience

Vivint lets you customize the app experience. Include the HomeView feature and then set up the My Home tab however you want. In this unified dashboard, you can rearrange tiles to reflect what’s most important to you. For example, you might want a quick-action button to disarm or arm your system in the first spot, followed by security sensors, surveillance, and energy management. Everything from your surveillance footage to smart lighting is all in one spot. 

The improved Vivint App is available to all customers, regardless of the plan you choose, and now includes a dark mode to enhance visibility and lower eye strain in low-light situations.
