How to Enable Push Notifications

Setting up Alarm.com alerts is easy—but first, you need to enable your Push Notifications.

Here’s a quick video on how to do it with your Alarm.com app.


Why set up push notifications?
Your smart home security system can alert you to all kinds of activity. You can get an alert if you leave home without arming your system. You can get an alert if there’s unexpected activity in the house, or if your dog walker doesn’t show up, or even if there’s a power outage when you’re away.


Step-by-step instructions:

  1. Log in to the Alarm.com app.

  2. Tap the Menu icon in the top right.

  3. Scroll down and tap Notifications.

  4. Tap the Push Notifications toggle switch On.

You're all set to receive push notifications!
