Sharing access with guests using August Smart Locks is a convenient process designed to facilitate secure entry for visitors. To share access, the primary user must first have the August app installed on their smartphone and be logged into their August account. Once logged in, the user can go to the "Guest Access" feature within the app, which allows for the creation of temporary or permanent access codes.
To share access, the user should select the option to invite a guest and enter the guest's email address. The guest will then receive an invitation to download the August app and set up their own account. After they accept the invitation, the primary user can customize the level of access granted, specifying which doors the guest can unlock and for how long. The access can be time-limited or even set to expire after a certain period, providing flexibility based on the user's needs.
It is important to note that guests can access the locks using their smartphones once access has been granted. For further troubleshooting or assistance, it is advisable to refer to the official August website, where there may be additional resources and contact information available.
