Open Doors - iPhone App

This Paxton application is available on the Apple App store. The app is designed to run on any iPhone running iOS 5.1 or above and includes high-res images for devices with a retina display.

‍Reset all credentials

Touching the "Reset all credentials" button removes all the saved data. This is useful when the device is to be used by a different user. A warning message is displayed before any data is cleared.

Help me

Touching the "Help me" button displays the Paxton Apple Apps page within mobile Safari.

If the "Confirm open door" option is set, a confirmation request will appear before transmission.

The dots at the bottom of the screen indicate how many pages of doors there are. Swipe left or right to move between them.

The button remains grey while waiting for a response from Net2 Anywhere.

A successful request will turn the button green for a short period, otherwise it will turn red.

Multiple open requests for different doors can be sent at the same time.

‍Pass code protection

The pass code must now always be entered to run this application.

A user has 3 attempts to get the pass code correct. After that, the app will display a warning message and then close.

Send feedback to the authors

This option will open an email template that allows the user to send any questions they have to the Net2 Anywhere team.
