## Description

XFINITY Home is a smart home security and automation Chrome extension that keeps you connected to your home anywhere, anytime. It allows you to remotely arm and disarm your security system, receive real-time alerts via text and email when alarms or motion detection events occur, and access remote video monitoring to check on your home instantly.

Beyond security, XFINITY Home offers integrated control over compatible devices such as Ecobee thermostats, Philips Hue lighting, Lutron Caséta switches, and smart door locks like August and Kwikset. This seamless control enables you to manage lighting, temperature, and locks remotely from your smartphone or tablet. The extension requires an Xfinity Home service subscription, an active internet connection, and an Xfinity ID.
