The Frontdoor^® app helps homeowners get things done smarter with a simple tap on their iPhone or Android.

Frontdoor, Inc. (NASDAQ: FTDR), the nation’s leading provider of home service plans, announced today that Frontdoor, the one-stop-app for all things home maintenance and repair, has reached over 225,000 downloads in just the four weeks since it launched on April 11.

“We are seeing tremendous consumer response to the app. Consumers can download Frontdoor for free and do one free video chat with one of our Experts to get help with any repair or maintenance need,” said Bill Cobb, Frontdoor’s Chairman & CEO. “We have Experts on standby for immediate consultation for issues with plumbing, electrical, HVAC, appliances, and we even have a handyman category for problems that don’t easily fit into these other categories.”

But that’s not all the Expert video chats can be used for.

“We are seeing people call in for advice on a variety of issues. One homeowner asked if the recent estimate they received for replacing their HVAC was fair and our Expert was able to give an informed opinion,” Cobb said. “In other cases, people have called in asking about what they should do for a mold problem, or how to remove wallpaper, so if you have a repair or maintenance need in your home of any kind, do a free video chat with one of our Experts.”

Powered by Frontdoor’s proprietary Streem video technology, Frontdoor offers membership plans for every homeowner. The Basic membership is free and includes one free video chat session with an Expert, followed by a list of local, vetted service Pros, and access to Frontdoor’s How-To Tips library. The Prime membership is an annual plan at $99 a year. It includes everything offered in the Basic package with three total Expert video chat sessions a year, exclusive discounts (up to 50% off retail pricing) for heating and A/C system replacements with financing options available, discounts and special pricing for home products and services that can be booked at any time.

Homeowners have everything to gain by downloading the app and doing a video chat with an Expert – all for free. If you like the Basic experience, you can upgrade to Frontdoor Prime for additional benefits at just $99 a year.

The Frontdoor app is available to download now on iPhone and Android. For more information, visit www.frontdoor.com.
