Does doorbell connect to Amazon echo?

We have the security system. We would like to add video camera. Can we get alerts and motion detection to show on our Amazon echo?

Hi @1986mclee,

 

SimpliSafe uses a closed system with unique methods of communication. So our cameras and systems - including settings and notifcations - can be accessed and viewed only through the SimpliSafe app and website.

That's horrible

@rochellemcghee​ in a world where cybersecurity is more important than ever, our focus is in making sure that our customers' data is fully locked down and secured.

@davey_d​ I don't care about anything but the doorbell.  We have a large home and only ringing at base station doesn't work for us, especially if we are outside.  We need a better way of hearing the doorbell.  If our phones are with us, they sometimes will ring the doorbell sound, but they aren't always with us. Would love to see this integrated, it would be a big help.  I do understand the security issues, I'm just asking for doorbell ringing integration.

The only thing you can do with alexa is ask her to arm your system or ask her what is the status of your system but can't disarm it or view cameras with alexa. That's fine by me though as there some things I don't want a third party doing and that's messing with my security system.
