Getting started with Sentry Guard

From store download to a working app on your phone — all sign-in happens in the app only, not on this website.

Get the app

Coming soonApp StoreComing soonGoogle Play

Paid app — download and purchase through the App Store or Google Play.

  1. 1

    Download from the store

    On iPhone: search «Sentry Guard» in the App Store and tap Get/Buy. On Android: search in Google Play and install.

    Use the correct Apple/Google account — the purchase is tied to your store account.

  2. 2

    Open the app and connect your vehicle

    On first launch tap “Connect your vehicle”. You’ll approve in your vehicle account and return to the app automatically.

    Use the same vehicle account that owns your vehicle.

  3. 3

    Approve the virtual key in your vehicle app

    Open your vehicle app → Security → Manage Keys → approve Sentry Guard.

    Without key approval the app can’t read vehicle data or send commands. The app will remind you if it’s missing.

  4. 4

    Confirm your vehicle

    After connecting, your linked vehicle appears. Make sure the name and VIN are correct.

  5. 5

    Allow push notifications

    When prompted — tap Allow. You’ll get approach & threat alerts in real time, even when the app is closed.

    You can change this later in phone Settings → Sentry Guard → Notifications.

  6. 6

    Adjust settings (optional)

    In the Settings tab: active hours, auto-honk, flash, sensitivity, and parking mode when you don’t need monitoring.

  7. 7

    Make sure monitoring is armed on the vehicle

    On the home screen you’ll see monitoring status. “Live monitoring” or “Vehicle resting” are both normal when the car is asleep.

    No need to pull to refresh. When someone approaches and the car detects an event — you’ll get a push.

You’re set — the app should be working

If you connected your vehicle and approved the virtual key and push — you’re covered. Check that your vehicle appears on the home screen with monitoring status. Drive safe.

Helpful tips

  • This website does not offer sign-in — the app only.
  • Parking mode: pauses monitoring and API usage when you don’t need alerts.
  • If push doesn’t arrive — check active hours in settings and notification permissions on your phone.
  • To fully disconnect: log out in the app or request account deletion by email.
