You can manage rooms within the mobile app very easily if you have a DIY installed alarm system. If you have a professionally monitored installation then the rooms will be set up for you by a Boundary engineer when the system is installed.

Reassign Sensors first!
If a room has sensors assigned to it then you must reassign the sensors to a different room before you can remove it. See our managing sensors article for details on how to do this.

- Login to the Boundary app on your phone
- Tap Settings > Rooms
- Tap the Room Name you wish to edit
- Tap the Edit button for the room
- Tap the Delete Room button
- If there are no sensors assigned to the room it will then be removed.
