AT&T Reboots Smart Home with Google & Abode

AT&T has introduced Connected Life, a new smart-home security platform rolling out across the United States. This initiative marks a significant pivot from its previous Digital Life service, now featuring partnerships with tech giants Google and Abode. The platform aims to streamline the smart home experience by offering integrated kits that combine Google Nest smart devices with security sensors, simplifying setup for consumers.

Customers can choose between two kit options, available through monthly subscriptions or upfront payment, which include various Google smart home products and essential security components. The service integrates with the Google Home app but allows users to manage all devices solely through the Connected Life app. Subscription tiers offer features like extended video history and intelligent alerts, with a premium plan providing 24/7 professional monitoring for emergency dispatch.
