iPhone Security App Catches Burglar in the Act

Via Homesecurityteam.com - Yet another burglary was avoided in Dallas, Texas recently thanks to an iPhone security app that allowed a home owner to stop thiefs in the act of burglarizing his home. Home owner Vince Hunter had secured his home in Dallas and taken his trusty iPhone along with him for a much needed vacation in Connecticut. Before he left, Hunter had purchased an iPhone security app that was designed to provide him with a notification anytime that any of the security checkpoints on his home was breached.

Much to his surprise, he was notified of a home intrusion during his vacation that enabled him to take swift action that let him contact local police before burglars could make off with his property. Three different components of the iPhone security application allowed Hunter to protect his personal property: alerts that alarms had been triggered, live security camera footage and notification to the local police.

The story began when Hunter was alerted that a motion sensor had been triggered in his home by a text message provided by his iPhone security app . Although Hunter lived in a high crime area, personal alerts like these allow home owners to investigate the nature of the breach rather than notifying the police every time that a home alarm is triggered.

Hunter then used is iPhone security application to access the security cameras in his home. He was shocked to find live footage of multiple intruders in his home after having broken glass to get inside. Hunter responded immediately by using his iPhone to dial 911 while continuing to watch the burglars in his home.

Hunter was able to watch the entire burglary unfold from beginning to end thanks to his iPhone security app . The application was able to provide playback of the moment that the men broke into his home to the final moments that the police arrived on the scene.

Not bad for a $4.99 iPhone app.
