Ajax can be easily used for autonomous monitoring of your home, apartment or office, which is attributed to an advanced user notification system: a combination of push notifications, SMS messages and phone calls.Even if you connect your security system to a central reporting point, you will remain informed of all events and can view the resolution of any problem.Of course if you don't miss the Ajax alarm .
Different types of Ajax notifications minimize the risk of missing a crucial event: an intruder detected in a house, fire detectors indicating the presence of smoke or water leakage.Push notifications require an internet connection, but they can be received in seconds over WiFi if there is no mobile signal.On the other hand, SMS works independently of an internet connection, while phone calls attract the most attention, given the duration of the ringtone and vibration.

But having all three types of notifications enabled does not guarantee that you won't miss an alarm notification from a security system and the reason for this can be attributed to the iPhone's settings .All you have to do is turn the number of notifications all the way down, switch to silent mode (disabling vibration at the same time) or enable 'Do Not Disturb' mode, and the chance of missing an important event will quadruple.
Fortunately, it wasn't just the companies that provide services with extremely important notifications for users that realized they had a problem, but also Apple.In iOS 12, Apple added a new type of notifications: Critical Notifications .Regardless of your smartphone settings, these notifications play an audio notification and a message appears on the screen.
This is how the critical notification features work:
| Apple only supports critical alerts for applications related to health, public safety, and homeland security.To access these notifications, application developers must demonstrate that users are interested in receiving notifications that override the device settings, and that the application is subject to additional moderation. |

The Ajax Security System app was one of the first security applications in the world to receive Apple critical signals authorization.When you open the application after upgrading to version 2.112, you will see a message asking you to sign up for the new feature.We strongly recommend that you follow the advice!
Ajax Security System only uses critical alerts to communicate alerts when detectors detect intrusion, fire or leakage, and in case of pressing the panic button on the key fob or when entering a code under duress on the keypad .System notifications do not ignore your smartphone's sound mode.
To disable or enable previously failed critical alerts, go to Settings ▻ Ajax ▻ Notifications .
Don't forget that you can connect Ajax to a central reporting point of the security company to ensure 24/ 7 monitoring of security events and rapid responses to alerts.
