London: Piper has announced a partnership with Life360, the leading Family Network used by more than 50 million families to privately share their locations and stay connected. The partnership will give Piper and Life360 users the ability to know their home and family members are protected by Piper when they are not around through a new feature called ‘Smart Arming’. With the Life360 integration into Piper’s home security solution, users can feel at ease knowing their families can check in or out with the simple touch of a button.
“Piper users are always looking for smart and efficient ways to protect their families and make their home security systems smarter, whether it is through sensors, smart switches or customisable notifications alerting them to what is happening in their home. That is why we believe Piper and Life360 are a perfect pair - users can protect their families in and out of the home with Smart Arming,” said Jason Domangue, vice president of Piper Marketing at Icontrol Networks. “This partnership brings additional peace of mind to Piper users, who are able to check-in with their loved ones throughout the day.”
With Smart Arming, Piper will notify users when their system is unarmed and no family members are detected in their home. Users then simply tap the notification on their mobile device to set Piper to “away” automatically arming Piper without having to open any apps.
"Our focus has always been on providing peace of mind by letting people know where their families are and that they're safe," said Alex Haro, co-founder and president of Life360. “We’re excited to partner with Piper as part of our ‘Works with Life360’ program to connect homes and devices to your family network. Not only can people know their families are safe with our service, but now with Piper they never have to wonder what is going on in their homes thanks to the smart security and real-time alerts that allow them to check in at any time.”
