Separate voice prompt volume settings e.g. for Armed/Disarmed

I'm a new SimpliSafe customer, coming from a competitor, and I'm genuinely shocked and disappointed at how noisy the SimpliSafe system is in general. The competition has more options for silent modes.

1) The keypad: why isn't there an option to turn off all beeps? If I am standing in front of it pressing they keys, I do not need to hear beeps to know they are being pressed. This is thoughtless user design. We should be able to turn off button press beeps.

2) I do not want the base station to announce that it has been turned off. It's 5am, I'm turning off the alarm, and I don't want it to wake up my family. It's already set to the lowest volume in settings. But if I turn it off entirely I may miss important announcements. This is thoughtless user design. We should have some granularity around when it makes announcements.

Hi @JasonDunn ,

Thanks for submitting your ideas! In the Product Request section, we ask that you create a new thread for each idea, so we can keep track of the status of each request.

There is already a thread for Keypad Silence, and currently there has been no update. So I've changed the title of this thread to reflect your second idea only. Of course, I will pass this on to our dev team.
