What is ADT Trusted Neighbor?

The new ADT+ home security system combines traditional security with the best smart home devices from Google and Yale using a new service called Trusted Neighbor which lets you assign specific roles to people you trust, giving them access to your home in predefined situations. The idea is, you want or need someone to enter your house, but only at certain times, or under certain circumstances.
