Haven

If your hotel room has a safe, how safe are your valuables? The security app Haven keeps watch and is designed to ensure that your possessions are safe when you leave your hotel room. Although this app is only available on the android mobile devices, it is worth it because of the safety it provides to its users. Micah Lee, a computer security engineer, wrote a piece about how efficient this app is when it comes to protecting your belongings like your laptop. He said, Haven connects to your mobile device’s microphone, and camera to catch any movement in the room. If someone comes into the room, you’ll be notified.

This app is guaranteed to keep you safe since it eliminates the stress of losing your room key and break ins. You can learn more about the OpenKey app by clicking here.
