How do PoolScout alerts work?
In the event of a high-severity event— such as unattended toddler near the pool, PoolScout will activate the alarm unit and will send phone alerts to all the contacts added to your PoolScout app.
Within the app, the Live Stream allows to quickly decide on how to react. When an unsafe scenario is detected, the app displays the most relevant actions you might need to perform as well as your predetermined contacts, so you can reach those people when it matters most.

What is the PoolScout app?
The PoolScout app is the control panel for your PoolScout System.
PoolScout is an artificial intelligence (AI) detection system that is entirely automatic, with no human intervention or monitoring required. If a dangerous situation is identified, the system will automatically raise an alert via the PoolScout App (installed on one or more home account mobile phones) and also through the alarm unit.
PoolScout is the only safety system that can distinguish between toddlers, people and pets in real-time.
