Arming/Disarming separate locations

GM01 — Wed, 04 Feb 2026 03:35:06 GMT

I have two separate locations. The new app combined the two into one. I can not arm one location without arming the second location. So I’m away from my second home but can not arm it unless I arm the other home. This sucks!

@GM01 - just want to add that you can move devices into a second location without on-boarding them again. Though it might be prudent to make the second location the home you are at now, and leave the remote devices undisturbed.

If you have a subscription, then the bad news here is that you will need one subscription for each location.
