You can now control your Abode security system from your Apple TV.

The DIY home security company launched the new app today and expanded its Android TV app. Users can now arm and disarm their Abode system from their TV, view live video feeds from up to four cameras, see recorded clips, and control devices through “quick actions.”

Some Abode systems and cameras are Apple Home compatible, so they could already be controlled on Apple TV via the Home app, but this dedicated app expands the functionality to all Abode systems.

The Abode app is now available on Apple TV. No subscription is required to use it, but some features, such as controlling devices via quick actions and viewing recorded footage, require a sub, which starts at $7.99 a month.
