Made building entry harder
My apartment building switched to mobile entry with this app and it only works half the time. Sometime you just get “general error” sometimes it takes forever to load which is not great is its raining, cold or if you are concerned for your safety and need to get inside fast.
Recently we get the code ‘no door found’ on our elevators on the gound floor which is really an accessibility issue. I keep the app up to date but its not reliable as a system of entry. Id rather just have a key fob
Mobile key not working
The mobile key has never worked for me
Huge Downgrade Compared to Normal Fob
My building recently switched exclusively using the mobile keys through this app. Unfortunately, this app frequently needs to fetch data from the web in order to even launch, and if your parking space is in a basement garage with no service that means the app may never launch, forcing you to have to consciously launch the app prior to entering the garage in order to make sure you can get into your building. Additionally, the UI is pretty terrible and accessing the Key functionality takes at least 3 taps, when this is by far the single most used feature of the app.
Please update this app to be able to launch quickly when offline, and please support Apple Wallet/home key features which will allow residents to use their phone or watch (which would be the most convenient option) to easily tap for entry into the building without having to fumble with this clumsy and slow app.
All in all this app gets a 0/5 from me
Sorry if your building chose this app
This app is absolutely garbage. I don’t know when building management decided to make a terrible decision on using an app that was seemingly untested and slow.
1. My app sometimes takes 10-25 seconds to load, and this is JUST FOR THE KEY.
2. The UI is absolutely terrible. Why do I have to click about 4 buttons just to get to the key.
3. This is a huge safety risk. What if someone’s phone is out of battery at night, how can they get into the building and to their appartment safely?
4. There is no hard fob solution for those who either don’t want to use the phone app or for those that don’t have a smart phone. It is not inclusive, and that’s not right.
Why should we even need to use an app? Not everything needs to be on a phone. Residents will ALWAYS have their keys with them, so a key fob will always make sense. We don’t need to have our phones all the time when we leave the apartment.
There are other fob solutions that connect to the apple wallet and have more hassle-free operating steps. If you have a basement to your apartment with low service, you’re screwed.
Loading so slow
The slowness of the app to load anything makes it unusable. Very frustrating
Moblie Access Key
Mobile Access Key activates Apple Pay instead of opening door. Any suggestions or fixes?
Not working since the last update
I cannot login on my iPhone SE
Can’t login
This app stopped working all of a sudden. Not the first time but at least it usually works itself out.
Unimpressed
Interface for contact numbers is difficult to read.
Secure, Thorough and Reassuring
The building I live in just switched to this format and it is much stricter than the last entry system we had. The visitor, upon requesting access, has to have their photo taken and give an email. While it is extra steps for everyone, it does provide a record of non residents. Delivery persons are also required to use this which is great.
