Make Simplisafe ADA (deaf) accessible

Please add ADA accessible features such as allowing connection to vibrating devices and smart light bulbs for flashing lights. 
I would even buy a something like the homebase that just lights up and vibrates when the doorbell rings or the alarm goes off. Allowing the system to work better with Alexa to change the lights would work too. PLEASE ADA features!!!

Hi @eliseat227 ,


Thanks for the feedback. We do have an active request for a Strobe Light component right now that works similar to the Wireless Siren.

In the meantime, our strongest recommendation is to set up the SimpliSafe app on your smartphone, and to use your device's vibrate function for alerts. Also make sure that you have Critical Alarm Notifications enabled, so that you'll get the alerts even when you're asleep.

Of course, our engineering team continues to work on improvements to the system to make it safer and better for all - including those with different needs!

Unlikely in the near future, IMHO, maybe even ever. It's DIY for now.

What can be done if using SimpliSafe is intercept the push notifications with certain Android automation apps or Samsung smartphones and their modes and routines app.

Or Home Assistant.

Then for example, for a Samsung, there are smart devices that can be triggered, if Samsung compatible.....same with Home Assistant and compatible devices.
