User Reviews

User reviews consistently report a unreliable Brinks/Protect America iOS app: frequent offline/connectivity and SSL errors, missing or delayed push notifications, and long support waits post-takeover. False alarms and police dispatch add risk. A few note camera access and remote arming as intended features when the app works, but overall sentiment is negative and many consider switching providers.

Pros

Camera viewing/access within the app is appreciated by some users.
The app is intended to allow remote arming/disarming for convenient security management.
Historically, some users felt the app worked better under Protect America before the Brinks takeover.

Cons

The app frequently reports offline or cannot connect, leading to unreliable monitoring.
Notifications do not consistently arrive (push alerts/banners fail), reducing timely awareness of system events.
Brinks takeover and perceived mismanagement have degraded app performance and customer support.
False alarms occur, sometimes resulting in police dispatch due to app glitches.
Support is slow or unhelpful, with long hold times and authentication/login issues.

Recent reviews

Either the app or brinks in general, I no longer receive any notifications on my phone. Customer service no longer exists. It just automatically sends you a link that is supposed to help you troubleshoot your issues yourself.

This app constantly reports it cannot connect, or indicates alarm is offline, or most commonly reports an SSL error. My wifes iPhone 14 connects a little more often, but still not consistent. Brinks and protect america just have me do a manual reset on the panel. This is ridiculous. The poor app performance and inability to connect consistently is the reason I have decided to get away from Brinks and Protect America to something else more reliable and dependable. Had the same issues when i had an Android phone. Junk app. Do not recommend.
