Billing
How billing works
We bill every 60 days. Regular Home Watch invoices are issued on the 1st of January, March, May, July, September, and November. If you own more than one property, they'll be combined onto a single bill. Special projects or maintenance may be billed outside the regular cycle and will appear in your Current Billing Cycle.

Security
Two-factor authentication (2FA)
🔐
Authenticator app
Checking…
Adds a 6-digit code on top of your password at sign-in. The code comes from a free app like Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, or the iPhone built-in Passwords app.
App lock
📱
Face ID / Fingerprint
Checking device support…
Locks the app even when your phone is unlocked. Useful if you ever lend your phone or leave it sitting around. Uses your device's built-in biometrics — nothing leaves your phone.
Require Face ID / fingerprint to open
"In background" means after you've switched to another app or locked your phone. Bringing the app back to the front after this much time triggers a Face ID prompt.
Your browser doesn't support biometric app-lock. iOS Safari 14+, Android Chrome, and macOS Safari/Chrome with Touch ID are supported.
If you lose access
Lost your phone with the authenticator app?
Use one of the backup codes you saved during 2FA setup. Each code works once.
Lost the backup codes too?
Contact Father & Sons at (239) 826-1767 — an admin can reset your 2FA so you can sign in and set it up fresh.

Set up 2FA
Step 1 of 3: Install a free authenticator app on your phone.
Recommended apps (all free):
iPhone built-in — Settings → Passwords → tap any login → "Set up verification code"
Google Authenticator — App Store / Play Store
Microsoft Authenticator — App Store / Play Store
Authy — has cloud backup so codes survive a new phone
1Password / Bitwarden — auto-fills codes if you use a password manager
Already have one of these installed? Just tap Continue.
Step 2 of 3: Open your authenticator app and scan this QR code.
Loading QR code…
Can't scan? Type the code manually
In your authenticator app, choose "Enter setup key manually" and type:
—
Account name: Father & Sons Home Watch
Once the entry is in your app, enter the current 6-digit code below to confirm everything's wired up.
Step 3 of 3: Save these backup codes somewhere safe.
If you lose your phone, these are how you sign back in. Each code works one time only. You'll only see them here once — screenshot, print, or save them in your password manager before continuing.

Add to Home Screen
Adding the portal to your Home Screen opens it like an installed app — no Safari or Chrome address bar, faster to launch, and works offline for stuff you've already seen.
Step 1 — Open the portal in Safari or Chrome.
Both browsers can add the portal to your Home Screen on iPhone and iPad. If you opened this link from an email, you're probably already in one of them.
portal.fshomewatch.com
Step 2 — Tap the Share button.
It's the square with an arrow pointing up.
Safari: bottom-center of the toolbar on iPhone (top-right on iPad).
Chrome: top-right of the screen, just left of the three-dot menu.
⬆️
Step 3 — Find "Add to Home Screen".
In the share sheet that slides up, look for a row labeled "Add to Home Screen" with a ⊕ icon next to it.
In Chrome: if you don't see it right away, scroll down and tap "View more" (the downward arrow) to reveal the full action list — then "Add to Home Screen" will be there.
Add to Home Screen⊕
Step 4 — Tap "Add" in the top-right.
You can change the name if you want (it'll appear under the icon on your Home Screen). Then tap Add. The Father & Sons icon appears on your Home Screen — tap it anytime to launch the portal like an app.
Step 1 — Open the portal in Chrome.
Most Android phones use Chrome by default. If you opened the link in Gmail, it'll usually pop you into Chrome automatically. If not, tap the three-dot menu in Gmail's preview and choose "Open in Chrome."
portal.fshomewatch.com
Step 2 — Tap the three-dot menu.
In the top-right corner of Chrome, tap the ⋮ icon to open the browser menu.
⋮
Step 3 — Tap "Install app" or "Add to Home screen".
In the menu, look for either "Install app" (newer Chrome) or "Add to Home screen" (older versions). Both do the same thing.
📲Install app
Step 4 — Tap "Install" or "Add".
A confirmation will pop up — tap the blue button. The Father & Sons icon appears on your Home Screen (and sometimes in your app drawer). Tap it anytime to launch the portal like a native app.
