Keep the Christmas magic alive this year for your youngsters by “capturing” footage of Santa inside your home! Your little ones will be incredulous that they actually saw him bringing their gifts.

Follow the Alarm.com instructions here to set the scene. Simply select a Santa option to add to your video still, then move or resize him as needed. All that is needed is the latest version of the Alarm.com app and a compatible Alarm.com home security camera. (To tell if a video camera is compatible with Santa Security, open your Alarm.com app and look for a Santa icon in the top right corner of the camera’s live video feed.)

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.

2020 has been a difficult year in many ways. Finish off the year strong with this delightful surprise for your family!
