Low battery notification not in app
I've heard 2 low battery warnings overnight from the base station but the details of exactly which sensors they are do no show on the app or on the keypad. I went until the device menu and saw an alert at the up of the screen, but when the page refreshed the alert went away ( before I had a chance to go to the detailed description) and never came back after that.

Hi LSamuel,
That is very strange. Where did you see/hear that warning? My first thought is that it might be your Base Station, if it had been unplugged or if your home lost power. But you should also have gotten a "Power Outage" notification in your Timeline several hours prior.
Of course, you can check on the current battery and error status of your whole system from the Dashboard on the SimpliSafe app.

I got a message that the battery was low but it did not say on what device. Went to my dashboard but I saw nothing that told me what device had a low battery and the dashboard shed me nothing.

I just spent an hour between chat and phone support having this same conversation. the base reports on something that you may only partly hear and then you can’t find the problem in the app.

There's a glitch in the system. Since my original post, I've replaced the batteries in several entry sensors and what wasn't clear to me then that is now it is now is that the alerts from the base station, key pad and what's in the app so are not aligned. If I check the app and it actually indicates the entry sensor that needs to be addressed, I take a screenshot because there's no guarantee that that detail will show up the next time - even if the battery has not been changed. You're not going crazy, there's definitely an issue that needs to be addressed. Good luck!
