not really a subscription fee. certain models and stores offer lifetime maps with the unit but don't assume it comes with lifetime maps. Do not buy the traffic adapter. Its worthless.

I have used LT for years once you buy a seat that's it, but only on one machine. I don't know about the subscription but I would imagine it to be the same.

No, it does not require a subscription if you buy the keypad lock without the kit (much cheaper). You can program in about 20 different codes and change them whenever you like. If you want to monitor who is coming and going, then you can purchase the kit, but I will tell you that I did that and Nexia is NOT customer friendly. I had this system all set up and working, and then flew back to the state where I live, and the Nexia system quit working. There was absolutely nothing they would or could do, and I was stuck with a system that did not work, and no help. It was a complete waste of money. The Schlage lock itself is wonderful. Nexia is terrible! If you can find another system, I would choose that. No, it does not require a subscription if you buy the keypad lock without the kit (much cheaper).

Not necessary, but yet, do not buy a new item for a limited use. I get bad and that leaves much to be desired for their services.

Depends, really. On the shipments I get, on the subscription, I usually have 6-7 months of "use by" availability, but I can only imagine that it varies.

Yes! Yes! I did exactly this. Apply the product code to your account. The expiration date of subscription extends by one year.

No, there is no subscription required. They do periodic software updates, but they are free.

Yes. I'm not sure how much it is, but you need to buy the subscription and some sort of account activator.

It comes with the subscription office services, but they nag for a membership. I just use Google docs, and spreadsheets.

I ordered the subscription and the only real benefit is the hardware replacement if unit stops working (2 year). You can order this anytime after you purchase and register your product as long as it's not end of life. I would not purchase a subscription if I ordered another.

Unfortunately no. But it is ok, and probably the best you can get without a subscription.

You have to have a subscription to view the data. The subscription is modestly priced for most budgets.

No! You don't have to have it but I purchased it. Just for the no-hassle factor.

If you're looking to use it with the official Nexia system, it does require a subscription. With Vera or HomeSeer, it does not.

I am not if an active subscription for your IPhone is required. I would think that if the app is on the phone that is all you need. Try emailing Re customer service to see what there response is.

No subscription needed. Just buy the device, the steaming data is free. The data is delivered via radio waves, ie a pager network. Check your zip code to see if you live in one of the 152 major markets that is cover by the data signal. Think of this device as a data-radio, instead of sound, it receives and displays information.
