Smart devices offer certain conveniences that were previously simply impossible to experience, and the convenience offered by locks is breaking new ground for some brands. One of them is Nuki, which offers a very interesting operation so that everyone can open the door automatically without needing the key in the hand.
This experience It was called “smart hosting” and is used to send access permissions to people entering a house or house. It is perfect for controlling the house remotely and thus giving access to a person when you cannot give them the keys.
It is an ideal solution for managing the entry and exit of people such as friends or family when they are absent or for owners who use Airbnb-type platforms and thus allow travelers to easily access the rented accommodation. This experience improves the previous one of the manufacturer, since you had to enter an access code on a Nuki keyboard or an invitation link that unlocked the lock in the room’s Nuki app.
What I realized was that you also had to download the app to install it and have that previous experience, but now everything is very simple by being able to click on a web link. You simply receive the link to click by email or message in a WhatsApp type application.
And the most curious: this web link from Nuki will be valid during the selected dates by the owner to be used as if it were the button that opens the door. And always with one rule: press the link from a smartphone with active location to check that it is close to the smart lock. Which means it cannot be opened remotely.
The owner or owner of the smart lock you will be able to control everything and modify or deactivate the links so that they stop working. A very memorable experience for a link to be the access key so that it can even be shared with the companion or several and they can open the door with their cell phone.
This new feature will be available from this summeralthough Nuki did not give a specific date for its implementation in order to better manage who has access to the key in the form of the URL of a smart lock that can be placed on a door.
