    These features need to be enabled by your technician when your alarm is installed, and may not be available on all systems.
    Additional costs may apply to have these features set up.
  2. Voice Control is currently only available on iOS with Shortcuts by Siri
  3. If more than 10 Pocket Secure users are enabled, an additional monthly cost of $9.90 will apply

  4. Pocket secure has a built-in panic alarm. When activated via the app it sends your real-time location to other pocket secure users only.
