Discontinued: iSmartAlarm appears to be out of business. The domain ismartalarm.com no longer resolves (DNS lookup failed, confirmed via curl/dig on 2026-07-11). Multiple 2026 review sources (Alarm Reviews, Reviews.org, BestCompany) report the company went silent around 2019-2020: customer support stopped responding, the app stopped receiving updates, and the cloud servers the CubeOne hub depended on eventually went offline, bricking existing customers' hardware. No bankruptcy filing is publicly documented, but there is no live product, no active support, and no purchasable 2026 offering — old kits are still listed on Amazon by third parties but reviewers explicitly warn against buying since there is no functioning cloud service or support behind them. Because there is no current live offering, the specs below are LEGACY specs describing the pre-shutdown (circa 2015-2019) product only, sourced from review-aggregator summaries, not verified against a live company site (the site is down). Confidence is capped accordingly and most spec-sheet fields are omitted rather than guessed.
