In this video, Jorge from Alarm Grid explains how you can use an Android phone to control a IQ Panel 2 Security System. This is done using the Alarm.com platform. There is an Alarm.com Mobile App for Android that you can download for free from the Google Play Store. An Alarm.com account is required.

A Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Security System needs to connect with the Alarm.com Servers for monitoring service. Whenever the system experiences an alarm or trouble condition, it relays the incident to Alarm.com. From there, Alarm.com forwards the alert to a central station and/or the end user depending on their alarm monitoring plan. However, Alarm.com isn't just for sending out notifications and alerts. Alarm.com is a complete interactive platform that is used for security and automation purposes.

When you activate your IQ Panel 2 for monitoring service, you will need to set up an Alarm.com account. You can then use this account to access the Alarm.com platform. By accessing your Alarm.com account, you will be able to control your system in many different ways. You can arm and disarm your system, check its current status, control Z-Wave home automation devices, activate smart scenes, view the live feed for Alarm.com Security Cameras, and so much more.

Alarm.com has a mobile app for Android that lets you access Alarm.com and control your Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Security System from an Android Phone. All you need to do is download the Alarm.com App from the Google Play Store. Once you have the app, you will provide your Alarm.com username and password to access your Alarm.com account. You will then be able to control your Qolsys IQ Panel 2 System just like you would from the Alarm.com website. As long as you have a network connection on your Android Phone, you can control your system from pretty much anywhere!
