App Overview
Residentry is a free Android application from Wyobi, listed in the Lifestyle category. It’s built to help people living in gated communities or managed estates control who enters their property by offering a digital invitation system tied to residents' contacts.
Visitor entry mechanism
Residents register and invite guests directly from their phone address book. Invitations can be sent through SMS or WhatsApp, and visitors can present a Personal Access Code (PAC) at the gate to be admitted. The PAC replaces the need for physical keys or passes, streamlining and securing visitor entry.
Messaging, PINs, and bookings
The app includes an on-estate messaging feature with an inbox for announcements and communications. Residents can also create numeric PINs and schedule visitor bookings for future dates, which makes it useful for planning deliveries, appointments, or guest arrivals.
Security improvements
A recent update resolved an SSL connection problem, improving encrypted communications between devices and the service. This patch enhances data protection and helps ensure safer access operations for users.
