Ajax can easily be used for independent monitoring of your house, apartment or office attributed to an advanced user notification system: a combination of push notifications, text messages and phone calls. Even if you connect your security system to a central hotline, you will stay informed of all events and be able to view the resolution of each problem. Of course if you don't miss the Ajax alarm .
Several types of Ajax notifications minimize the risk of missing a critical event: a burglar detected in a home, fire detectors indicating the presence of smoke or water leaks. Push notifications require an Internet connection, but they can be received via Wi-Fi within seconds if there is no mobile signal. On the other hand, SMS works independently of an Internet connection, while phone calls attract the most attention, given the length of the ringtone and vibrations.

But if all three types of notifications are enabled, this cannot guarantee that you will not miss a security system alarm notification and the reason for this can be attributed to the iPhone's settings . All you have to do is reduce the number of notifications all the way down, switch to silent mode (disabling vibrations at the same time) or turn on Do Not Disturb mode, and your chances of missing an important event quadruple.
Unfortunately, it wasn't just the companies providing services with extremely important notifications for users who realized they had a problem, but also Apple. In iOS 12, Apple added a new type of notifications: critical notifications . Regardless of your smartphone settings, these notifications play an audio notification and a message appears on the screen.
This is how critical notification functions work:
| Apple only supports critical alerts for applications related to health, public safety and homeland security. To access these notifications, application developers must demonstrate that users are interested in receiving notifications that override device settings, and that the application is subject to additional moderation. |

The app Ajax security system was one of the first security applications in the world to receive Apple authorization for the use of critical signals. When you open the application after upgrading to version 2.11.2, you will see a message asking you to sign up for the new feature. We strongly encourage you to follow the advice!
Ajax Security System uses only critical alerts to communicate warnings when detectors signal intrusion, fire or leakage, and in the event of pressing the panic button on the key fob or when forcibly entering a code on the keypad. System notifications do not ignore your smartphone's sound mode.
If you want to disable or enable previously failed critical alerts, gaat u naar Instellingen ▻ Ajax ▻ Meldingen .
Don't forget that you Ajax can connect to a central security company hotline to ensure 24/7 monitoring of security events and rapid response to alerts.
