Brinks Home introduces Vacation Watch and Package Detection

DALLAS – Brinks Home announced two new firmware update features for its home security platform, Vacation Watch and Package Detection.

Vacation Watch allows homeowners to seamlessly create temporary “Escalated Events” rules via the Brinks Home website or mobile app to automatically enable recording while away. Package Detection ensures homeowners are the first to know when a package is delivered.

With Vacation Watch and Package Detection, Brinks said that customers can experience additional video monitoring control, making it easy to customize a surveillance schedule. Vacation Watch enables automatic video monitoring at the time of departure and pauses recording upon arrival, sharing alerts via a push notification, text, and/or email the instant a significant event occurs. In addition to notifying customers when a package is delivered, Package Detection will notify customers when a package is retrieved with a video clip to show the customer who has retrieved it.

"With our commitment to protecting and meeting the needs of our customers, the new Vacation Watch and Package Protection features are an incredible addition to our advanced security monitoring offerings,” said Jonah Serie, Brinks Home Senior Vice President of Field Operations. "We’re proud to present more innovative solutions to home security, and are humbled at the opportunity to improve homeowners’ safety and grant peace of mind to customers nationwide.”

These features are available now via the Brinks Home website and Brinks Home Mobile App, Vacation Watch and Package Detection features can be adjusted and activated in the settings.
