    SimpliSafe Key Fob

    Very convenient to use and very compact - about the size as a stick of gum, my wife and I both have one and it is great for letting the dogs out at night without using the keypad, yes, I know that it is movable, or opening your phone in a dark room when everyone is sleeping.

    Small size, works as a remote should. Attaches to your key ring if needed. Can function as a panic button away from your keypad.

    I have the phone app for my SimpliSafe Security Alarm but wanted a backup just in case I could not arm/disarm my system. I purchased two of these so my wife and son does not need to have the app and I was truly surprised how good these remotes work. I’m thinking about purchasing another for my other son when he comes home from his military deployment.

    This remote is just an extension of what your phone can do without having to go through the hassle of getting your phone out and etc. For example, I normally come in my house through the front door which is where the keypad is kept. One day, I decided to come in through the garage which is a lil ways from the keypad, but no worries, I had the remote which saved me a swift jog to the keypad. Overall, I don’t really think it’s necessary, but just a caveat to the simply safe alarm system

    I've had the SimpliSafe system for a while. Sometimes I forget to set it after I have locked the house. This makes it so much easier because I just press the on button from outside without having to go back into the house to the keypad. Also, if someone is coming to my home, I can slip them the key fob to turn off the alarm without giving them my code.

    Works perfectly. Even at my long driveway. I have to admit I was surprised! The fob is very small and streamlined so it’s perfect for a keychain. Nice solid clicks too, so you know you’ve engaged it

    This fob is amazingly light and easy to carry. the buttons are recessed and it also has a panic button on the top which is very useful having everything in one place. The only thing I would recommend is to have some sort of cover that you could either open and close like a door so that you could cover the buttons up to prevent accidentally pushing them when they're in

    Adding this fob was as easy as going to the menu, select add device, choose fob, and following the directions. Took less than one minute. Actually bought this for an elderly family member to wear around the neck for its panic button feature in case of a fall.

    I bought these for people that prefer not to use the app to disarm and arm the system. I was pleased to see a panic button on the keyfob. Very easy to program and use.

    I bought the Key fob so that I could use it while in car or in bedroom at night. It is lightweight and sends a on-off signal to home or away with a single push of a button. It also has an emergency button at the top of the device. Transmission range is limited outdoors, but overall a good device.

    Handy little remote, got it for the top panic button, but great for setting to home mode in the evenings. If you park outside, I wouldn't keep this in your car, but I like having it as an alternative, quick access to setting modes while home or preparing for bed. Prefer this over the panic button device as it's less easy to accidentally press and can be left in a nightstand without concern, etc.

    Quick and easy way to set your Simplisafe home alarm. Works best for a quick neighborhood walk, running a quick errand, or when guests are at your home. Panic button is a nice feature as well.

    This is an extra for my SimpliSafe security system. Very handy, and has an incredible range. This one is for my neighbor who watches my house when I am away. Makes it very easy for him access my house without having to mess with the keypad and its required passcode. Click it's off before he enters - click it's on after he steps outside.
