## Description

Blue by ADT’s DIY home security system evolves with your needs. Use a Camera Only setup or a full system, and it integrates with compatible smart home devices for a seamless experience; secure mobile access lets you manage everything from your phone.

From arming/disarming remotely to streaming live video and managing alerts, you can set up custom rules, view event history, access saved media, and control connected devices like lights, locks, thermostat, and garage door. The free mobile app also sends push notifications and emails for arming, sensor alerts, motion, doorbells, and more.

## Review summary

Many reviews praise Blue by ADT for providing live monitoring and security over the years. However, a large number report severe app instability: frequent crashes, login issues, and feeds that won’t go live or buffer. These persist while some users see the service as reliable and secure. Customer support and billing problems are also common complaints, with nagging review prompts adding to user frustration.

### Pros

- Good live footage and monitoring when the app is functioning
- Long-standing reliability and a sense of security for some users
- Covers both indoor and outdoor cameras in real-time

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and daily instability; the app often freezes or won’t stay logged in
- Live video feeds and cameras often fail to go live or buffer, leading to unreliable streaming
- Login/authentication problems, including repeated sign-in prompts and re-login requirements
- Unreliable service with billing issues and perceived poor customer support
- Constant prompts to post reviews after logging in
