Original story (published on December 12, 2018) follows:

Simplisafe, the Boston based wireless home security system company, is reportedly having a service outage of sorts at the moment.

We’re seeing reports from users that say both Simplisafe mobile app and web app aren’t working at the moment.

Take a look at some reports:

@SimpliSafe so any one going to answer your contact # tonight? Why does my camera randomly turn on (Source)

Been on hold with @SimpliSafe for close to 45 minutes. What gives? System down? (Source)

@SimpliSafe is there an outage for web app and mobile app ?? (Source)

The company hasn’t responded yet to this reported outage, at-least not through its social media channels.

It could be a temporary glitch, in which case you need to wait for some time. However, rest assured, we are keeping a close tab and will update the story as and when more info surfaces.

This means we do a lot of hard work to come up with news stories that are either ‘exclusive,’ ‘breaking,’ or ‘curated’ in nature. Perhaps that’s the reason our work has been picked by the likes of Forbes, Foxnews, Gizmodo, TechCrunch, Engadget, The Verge, Macrumors, and more.

Since then, I have written for many leading publications, including Computerworld, GSMArena, TechSpot, HowtoForge, LinuxJournal, and MakeTechEasier to name a few. Here at PiunikaWeb, I started with covering smartphone related breaking stories as well as some other interesting stuff, but now I have switched over to more of a leadership role. I also take care of several operational aspects of the website. Some of my current responsibilities include business development, and working with Piunika to make sure we’re progressing as envisioned. If you want to get in touch, I am active on LinkedIN, and also available on Twitter/X.
