Yale Smartsync alarm, trying to disarm Alarm by google assistant

Clicon — Fri, 27 Jan 2023 22:57:27 GMT

I have just found out, that I can arm my Yale Home alarm system via google assistant. But when I try to disarm the alarm via google it says security panel has a security restriction enabled . Can this restriction be overcome ? If so can google assistant disarm the alarm by using a Pin Code in google home ?

Thanks in advance

Clive

Hi folks,

Gotcha — thanks for trying. Here are some things you can say to Google Assistant:

"Hey Google, is the [location name] door locked?"
"Hey Google, lock the [location name] door."
"Hey Google, make sure my [location name] door is locked."

Note: Be sure to say the name or location you gave your lock when you set it up. To find this info, open the Nest app and check the label beneath your Nest × Yale Lock.

When using voice commands, keep in mind: You can’t unlock your door using voice commands. This is a safety precaution to help prevent an unauthorized person from unlocking your door with their voice. Learn How to lock and unlock the Nest × Yale Lock. Make sure your door is closed when you tell Google Assistant to lock your door. The Nest × Yale Lock can only turn the deadbolt. It won’t close the door for you.

Let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks,

Not to hijack the post but the product we are revering to is the Yale smart alarm and not the Yale x nest alarm.

I can understand insecurity for voice command but why can we not disarm using routines which is something we set up.

Hi janthadeus

I don't have have smartlocks just the smart alarm. I was just wondering if you could disarm my smartalarm by saying the disarm command followed by saying saying your secret PIN number? 🤔

Exactly it would handy to disarm the panel by also saying your secret pin number 👍

Im sad to say since there wasn't any option, I downloaded and connected Alexa. You can do it on the Alexa app with a pin code.
