Product Requests and Suggestions: How to Use This Section

​Welcome to ​​Product Requests and Suggestions​​! Just like the name suggests, you can post ​​in this category​​ about what new features you’d like to see added to our hardware, software, and services. These requests are seen by our product teams, and it’s a great way for you to tell us your thoughts. Here are a few guidelines to keep in mind before getting started:​

​One Request Per Post​

​To help us track your submissions and keep this section organized, please include only one request or suggestion per thread. If you have multiple ideas, create a new thread for each of them.​

​Search Before Posting​

​Often, a product or feature that you want to see added has already been requested by another user. Please use the search box (top right of every page) to find similar requests, before posting a new thread.​

​Upvote and Comment​

​If you do find an existing request post, we strongly encourage you to Comment or Reply, and to use the Upvote function on the top left of the page. The more activity there is on each post, the more we know that the request is popular!​

​Check the Status​

​As mentioned, we’ll keep you updated on the status of each request, through a label on the top right of the post. Here’s what these statuses mean:​

I am having a senior moment.  How do I get to this "section" of this web site?

Integrate Simplisafe with Matter 2.0 so can be integrated with other smart home systems.

Allow multiple accounts (different emails) to manage Simplisafe with different levels of access.

@general_kaos I mean that you should create new posts for each request, not just reply in this same thread. Head over here and click the [Ask a Question] button to create a new post.

But by the way, here's where you can find threads for all three of those requests:

Is there an expected firmware update that will allow the external cameras to be synced to the system status......cameras off when system off, etc. (with options for override)? With the cameras continually activating with yard work, kids, etc., the camera batteries are lasting 3-4 weeks and my data bandwidth is being eaten up.

Hi @bheadley​,

At the moment there is not a firmware update for outdoor cameras to sync with the system’s status in the works. When it comes to your Outdoor Camera’s battery life, installing our Outdoor Camera Solar Panel will help to keep it charged.

For future requests, head over here and click the [Ask the Community] button.
