According to our alarm system expert
The Chuango H4 Plus is a Wi-Fi alarm system. The smart hub is connected to your router. All individual sensors are connected to the hub. The hub receives a signal when a paired sensor detects trouble. All connected users then receive a push message on their smart device (iOS and Android). This way you always and everywhere know that there is danger at your home. The package consists of 2 remote controls, 2 magnetic contacts and a motion detector. In addition, the H4 Plus is compatible with Amazon Alexa. You can also integrate the Nest thermostat easily in the Chuango H4 Plus app.

This order is the second instance since the first died in an update. The system is well thought out, has beautiful accessories (which are handy/easy to connect). BUT: it is a very poorly designed product (I really don't say that so quickly and don't have any shares in a competitor). Very little about the device is stable/reliable. Wifi is flapping like crazy (which is of course absolutely not necessary with an alarm system). The app is unstable (continuously asks to update the device, but if you don't, the app/device hangs). Hanging it on the wall is not very easy (mini screws with different plates). Also, the IoT platform (some platform in China) is regularly down so that the app has no access to the device at all.
And now perhaps the most important thing: there is NO support or helpdesk (or other way to get in touch with the manufacturer) and on the manufacturer's site, where you hope you can find information, support has been listed for months a message: "coming soon". http://www.chuango.com/supports/
I don't like to 'roast' a product, but this product should be removed from the Coolblue range. There are better alternatives in the market.

Bought this alarm as an upgrade to my existing eminent alarm. This only worked via SMS and was therefore very cumbersome to set up. Now with chuango H4 plus it's a piece of cake. Accessories are so linked. App works fast and stable. Only downside is perhaps the nest integration. This works through the browser. He actually just opens the site in the chuango app, which takes longer than through the app. So don't use it. But otherwise a top alarm, especially for the price. Little tip for the animal-friendly motion detector. Place this upright. Not angled towards the ground. Otherwise he will still see movement.

Unlike other cheap Chinese stuff, there is a clear manual and all supplies are neatly included. The installation goes very smoothly. However, the initial enthusiasm is greatly dampened by the android app, which contains bugs that make the system appear (but isn't) offline and the app drains your phone's battery at lightning speed. If Chuango would solve that, this would be highly recommended. However, because of the faulty app, it's just that way.
