Now your smartphone is your access key. You don’t need to carry a card credential.  Both Isonas and Hartmann include Apps that connect your smartphone to their readers using Bluetooth. This mobile credential is the latest way of controlling your door access.

These Door Access Systems Use Your Smartphone as the Credential

Isonas provides a simple solution that requires opening an app on your smartphone while the Hartmann system will connect to the reader even if the phone is locked. Both systems use virtual credentials that are added to the smartphone. They provide easy registration and management of the virtual credentials.
