A VIP at Howz is a very important person that you, as a data owner, share your information and data with.
Your VIP(s) will be able to see your data via the Howz app and web portal. They will also receive push notifications through to their mobile device to let them know if there has been no movement/activity detected.
The reason behind adding a VIP is to enable your important people to learn your daily routine through the use of appliances, door sensors and movement sensors. This will enable your VIPs to make sure all is well without them feeling intrusive.
