Super easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the Swann motion alert sensor for a little over a month now. I had other Swann accesories already hooked up so this was a perfect fit for my existing system. This is an excellent motion sensor when you consider value and performance. My Swann system has always been effective so when I built a vault to keep things in my pole barn I decided to put motion sensors in and around the area. This sensor is super simple to install, maybe 10 minutes, and has an amazing range. It covers 180 degrees in front of the safe, and another one covers the entire interior. I don't have it set up in a large area but it easily covers the 20 foot range needed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

App only notifications
on August 25, 2022
Posted by: Ryan330
from Warren, Ohio
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I ordered the swann montion senor I didn't realize that it only worked by downloading an app. I was hesitant to even bother with it but I'm happy I gave it a try. It doesn't beep at the senor, only has a blue light that comes on, which is good for testing purposes. The app was pretty easy to load, but I ended up taking it off my phone and putting it on my old phone so that I can keep it in my bedroom and the kids can have it around them. Anyone can also log into the acct on a tablet too, so I can have multiple devices getting the notifications. The range is very wide on what it will pick up and you can adjust it all with the app in the settings. Now when the kids hear the notification they run to the window to see what triggered the alarm.  I hear the notification, I'll call the dogs upstairs and put them in my room. They haven't even realized that someone is approaching the house yet and this way I can avoid them barking like crazy when a package is getting delivered.

Quick and easy setup!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you are looking for a security system that can be quickly and easily setup nearly anywhere then this motion alert sensor by Swann is just what you need. Everything you need for installation is included and the device is able to detect motion up to 110⁰. The Swann security app allows you to receive notifications directly to your phone when motion is detected. You can also add other Swann security products such as cameras and sirens to go along with the motion sensor at a later time. I would definitely recommend this product, especially to anyone looking for some peace of mind without the need for an elaborate and hard to install security device.

What is the point of it ?
on October 1, 2022
Posted by: Finghard
I have had this now for a while so can give it a fair review Pros : amazing battery life - Easy to install - descrete.
Cons : doesn't send notifications unless app open ? - no temp reading like it advertises. (Misadvertised) - no sensitivity settings - can't link in to cameras to record if triggered -
Conclusion : basically useless toy that does not send a notification unless app open and can't make a camera record .

Motion sensor for siren
on March 10, 2022
Posted by: Abaxt801
from Utah
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This siren was added in addition to my security system I already have in place. This siren was extremely loud and would be very deterring if someone broke in my house and heard it. I think in combination with the sensor this is going to be a great addition to my system.

Detects Motion.......

Frequency of use:Daily
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The set up is very easy! Add batteries to the unit and then pair the sensors. You will need to download the Swann Security App on your smartphone to pair and set up. We got the sensor to let us know when our loved one who has dementia is near the front door. This is to insure her safety and make sure she doesn't wonder outside without us knowing.
I would recommend this to a friend!
