Lorex App: Home & Away Mode

You can set an area surrounding your property so the app will intelligently change notification settings based on whether you are inside or outside the set area. For example, if you do not wish to be disturbed by system notifications while you are at home, you can disable notification while you are inside your home area.

NOTE: Home & Away™ mode requires the use of your mobile device’s location services, which can impact battery life.
