iLOQ App makes key-fob management and shared access even easier

The latest iLOQ App release introduces greater flexibility for managing key fobs and sharing access, making everyday access simpler for users and administrators.

The latest version of the iLOQ App brings new functionality designed to make everyday access management easier and more flexible. Main improvements include the ability for authenticated users to update key fobs within the same customer system, as well as new time-limited access sharing that automatically expires when it is no longer needed.

The release also simplifies the way users select how long a lock remains open and includes a range of usability, visual and translation improvements.

Keep key fobs up to date more easily

Previously, only people with iLOQ key fobs assigned to them could update the using the iLOQ App. With the latest iLOQ App release, this restriction has been removed creating greater flexibility and fewer dependencies when keeping key fobs up to date.

Any authenticated user within the same customer system can now update a key fob, even when the fob is assigned to somebody else. This makes it easier to keep shared or centrally managed key fobs up to date without having to wait for specific people.

Users who have their own key fob automatically have the functionality available. Other authorized users can enable physical-key updates through the iLOQ App settings.

Share access for exactly as long as it is needed

The release also introduces time-limited key sharing, giving users greater control when sharing mobile access with other people.

When sharing access, the owner can specify exactly when the recipient’s access should begin and when it should end. Once the defined period expires, the shared access ends automatically, removing the need to remember to revoke it manually.

This is particularly useful when providing access to:

• Friends and family

• Visitors and guests

• Contractors

• Service providers

• Other trusted third parties

The owner can easily see current, upcoming and expired shares in the app. Once shared access becomes active, the recipient can also see the expiry date and time directly on the relevant key card in the iLOQ App.

Continuous improvements to the iLOQ App

Alongside the new functionality, the release includes further usability, visual and translation improvements and general fixes.

The enhancements form part of iLOQ’s continuing development of a more intuitive, flexible and convenient digital-access experience.
