How do I get the base station to announce the entries name when I open a door?
When I open the door or back door or garage door, I would like the base to announce its name.
oh, I have kids in the house from time to time and this is a great safety feature.
I switched from another security system to simple safe, and the old system had that function. The base knows it’s name I’ve heard it say it so I would like to know how to make it announce whenever a door is open either an alarm mode or off mode.
thanks

@kadijdriscoll on the contrary, Entry Sensor Announce was released in the fall of last year. Learn more about it here.

Hi @lea0619,
The Base Station currently doesn't have the capability to announce the name of your sensors once they are opened. This is a highly requested feature that has been passed along to our dev team. If and when this feature is rolled out, an official update will be announced in this thread.
In the meantime, you can set your Entry Sensors to Secret Alert to get a text notification each time your sensors are opened.

this feature has been "highly requested" for a while now. I am doubting the dev team will do this. Its odd that they are not capable of doing this.

Surprised that this feature is still not available. I just switched to SS but contemplating to return the unit as this feature is not available.
