FAQ¶
- How do I prevent notification overload?
- Filter notifications by user type - only alert for guests and temporary codes. Enable Quiet Hours at night. Use per-event type control.
- Can I get notifications when someone tries the wrong code?
- Yes - enable failed attempt notifications. Set threshold to 3-5 attempts. Lock enters 30-second lockout after failed attempts.
- Will notifications work without internet?
- Push notifications require internet. If internet is down, the lock still operates locally. Check the activity log in the app when internet restores. For more information see our Smart Lock Key Fob and RFID Tag Guide.
