Overview

The Alarm.com for Apple TV app brings a video-focused user experience to the TV. Users can view all of the cameras on the high-definition screen on a user interface optimized for use from the couch. Up to four simultaneous streams can be viewed on the screen at one time, and if a user has more than four streams, the feeds will rotate out every 10, 20, or 30 seconds, depending on the user's preferences.

Compatibility

• Almost all Alarm.com cameras, with the exception of doorbell cameras, can be viewed through the Apple TV app.
• The Apple TV app supports streaming live video directly from compatible cameras.
• The Apple TV app does not support Two-Way Audio. For more information about Two-Way Audio compatibility, see Two-Way Audio Installation and User Guide.
  Note: Apple TV does not support Two-Way Audio. When port forwarding a device that has Two-Way Audio while using Apple TV, disable the microphone and speaker for the camera.
