Open Alarm.com App
Access the Safety Button right from your mobile device.
Feel safe in uncertain moments with Safety Button. If you’re not ready to call 911, just press and hold Safety Button and be ready to discreetly be connected through a monitoring agent to police, fire, or emergency medical services through the Alarm.com app.
Once released, you’ll have 10 seconds to cancel by entering your PIN, or your emergency will be sent directly to a trained operator who can dispatch help to your location, even if your phone is turned off or broken during the countdown. Safety Button is empowering, but it is not a replacement for 911.
