    I use this Multipurpose Sensor on my front door. I linked the sensor to my Smarthings Hub and assigned it to send me text messages once it detects the door opening. I also assigned the sensor to turn on some lights once the door is opened. It works like a charm, and it can detect door vibrations, and temperature logging.

    I would rate SmartThings a 5 but it lacks in one area, and, it's important. There is no way to arm or disarm the system outside of the APP. SmartThings needs to listen to the people that buy this system and get either a FOB or KEYPAD to perform a simple function to arm or disarm. My experience with Samsung is that they don't listen to the consumer, at all.

      Thank you for the feedback. We continually strive to improve our products for the best user experience and we appreciate your suggestion. We do offer an Arrival Sensor which upon arriving or leaving your home can initiate any number or programmed routines including arm/disarm and can work just like a fob. You can find the sensor here on Best Buy's website -- https://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-smartthings-arrival-sensor-white/4481808.p?skuId=4481808
      Thank you for your continued support! ~Samsung Brand Ambassador Samsung

    Absolutely obsessed with these! My fiance has started to get annoyed with how many of these there are, but now she is on board as we can have our entire house automated. I am very happy with these sensors, and do believe they are worth the asking price. They work extremely fast with the gen 3 SmartThings hub
