“Doug Brown at Alarm Engineering in Ocean City is great. Knowledgeable and focused on what works best for the customer. Called him with a problem while we were a long way out of town, and he dropped everything to help us out. Very reasonable prices.

For the past couple of years, lucky children have awoken on Christmas morning to a holiday surprise. A snapshot of Santa’s visit, captured by their smart home security camera. This year, make sure that your kids get in on the fun too.
Imagine the scene. It’s the big day and you are clutching your first coffee. Your family gathers around the tree and your kids grasp their first gifts eagerly.
“Wait just a minute, kids,” you say, with that magical twinkle in your eye and a nod to one of Alarm Engineering powered by Alarm.com cameras that guard your home. “Guess who WE caught on camera?”
Excited? So are we.
To catch Santa in your home or on your property, you’ll need the latest version of the Alarm.com app, and a compatible Alarm.com home security camera.* Follow the steps below or watch a quick tip video here.
1: Open your Alarm Engineering Alarm.com app and select a live video feed (choose a compatible Alarm.com security camera).
2: Tap the Santa icon in the video feed. This will get a still image from your security camera.
3: Choose a Santa from the menu to add to your snapshot. You’ll see full-color images of the real Santa for a daytime snapshot, and black and white options for the night. You can resize and move Santa if you need to.
4: Delight your family! When your kids wake you up on Christmas morning, show them your snapshot.
5: Share the magic! Share your Santa snapshots with family and friends by email, text*, and social media (hashtag: #SantaSecurity).
A genuine Santa Alert from your smart home security system is another way to show your kids that Santa visited. All you need is your Alarm.com app, your web dashboard, and a single contact sensor.
