    Got this for my daughter after we installed SimpliSafe alarm system in her apartment following a robbery. Great to have when carrying in groceries and want to shut off alarm first before entering or if you had children who are always beating you inside. The buttons do not depress very easily, so I would not be worried about accidentally having anything go off while they are in a pocket, purse or backpack, as some have questioned. The fob only works 30 feet from the base station, so if you did push it accidentally, you would be close to your keypad. There is also a panic button on top which you can push in case of emergency, and I love that my daughter can put this by her nightstand and have that extra reassurance. It can also be set up to send a medical alert for the elderly. Inexpensive, great product for piece of mind and convenience.

    The remote fob is super simple with on/off/away/home and panic capabilities with an excellent operating range. I can lock down the house and arm or disarm the system without fear of a false alarm. The fob is flat, easily attaches to key ring and fits in pocket.

    Easiest way to arm and disarm

    Works great. I used to take the keypad in the bedroom overnight in case I needed to manipulate the alarm in the middle of the night. Now I just keep my keys by the bed and the keypad stays hanging in the living room. I've used it over 100 feet away through a wall and it still worked. I was worried about the finish wearing off in my pocket but I've used it everyday for more than a month it still looks brand new. Now, for the money, it should be 2 way. 2 way aftermarket car alarms with confirmation beeps and vibration cost this much. Like I said, I used it from over 100 feet away but I didn't know if it had worked until after I'd opened my front door. But, if you can handle the price, it will most likely perform as expected. And it will give you more flexibility with the keypad and the keypad placement if you only have 1.

    This was a bonus item that came with my bundle- for free!! Did not want to buy it- but seeing as how I had a chance to use it - I would definitely buy it. It makes it easy to arm and disarm the security system as well as an emergency button you can push to sound the loud alarm!

    Added this to my SimpliSafe system It has three buttons on it to put it in off, home or away mode. There is a fourth hidden button on the end of the fob that is a panic button. Just a push of the red end calls the monitoring center and sounds the alarms. I've used this to disarm the system when I am coming into the house with arms full of groceries, etc and cannot get to the control panel with a third hand to disarm the system. Same holds true when I am leaving with my arms full. I have added this to my key ring so I can arm and disarm from inside the car. It has a good range from the garage and inside the car. I have not tested it beyond the garage.

    SimpliSafe Keyfobs

    Awesome Keyfobs for the SimpliSafe alarm system. Easy to set up and they make Using the alarm a snap. You use them to arm and disarm the system instead of setting it with the key pad. It makes it easier to do from inside the vehicle before you get up to the door. So much easier than trying to hurry to get to the key pad. I would recommend getting one of these for everyone in the house and also anyone that you have that house sits for you. Great product.

    If you have the SimpliSafe system then I recommend this. My wife likes it on her vehicle keys so she doesn’t “forget” to arm or disarm it.

    This remote works quickly and correctly but has a few small connectivity issues.It might need to be re-paired with system to work right and the buttons are very easily activated in your pocket.

    Works well with SimpliSafe system. I bough extra for a personal alarm instead of the panic button because it’s more portable. Excellent range for my 1800 sq ft house. You can set your alarm for home or away or turn the alarm system off with this fob. There’s also a discreet red recessed button at the end to push in an emergency.

    Super easy to link up to my system. I now have a number of them so that I do not need to always run across my house to disarm/enable my system. And the built in panic button is a plus.

    We bought one for each family member in the household. This is easy and comes in handy. Whether you are using it to disarm the alarm from outside or inside, in case someone goes out early in the morning and forgets to disarm, I can shut in off from my bedroom on the other side of the house. Great to have.

    Simplee Safe is very costly when compared to other security systems. I was able to buy the system for cheap with my best buy bucks and a gift card during a really good flash sale. I added a few extea items like the fob. It is the most useful item in the arsenal because it comes allows instant home, disarm and away with a bonus paniv alarm. It is extremely easy to set up and name in the system and makes so much sense. This is a highly recommended piece for this system.
