Overview
ADT security camera — indoor/outdoor video with ADT app integration (ADT cameras or bundled Google Nest cams on eligible plans).
ADT / Nest video devices integrate with the ADT+ or ADT Control app for Live View, motion notifications, and linked automations with alarm and other ADT devices. Video history and advanced features typically require ADT monitoring plan subscription.

- Wi-Fi band — 2.4 GHz requirement for most models.
- Transformer (wired doorbells) — voltage and power kit requirements.
- ADT monitoring plan — recording and advanced features vary by subscription.
- Shared device access — owner vs shared user troubleshooting permissions.
