Managing Shared Users
Removing Access
- Open the app, and go to the Users tab.
- Swipe left on the user’s name and tap Delete.
Automatic Revocation
- If the tenant moves out, all shared access is automatically removed.

Key Benefits for Tenants

- Monitor who accessed the unit and when directly from the mobile app.
- Remove access instantly with a simple swipe.
- Only the tenant can manage shared access—shared users cannot share the unit with others.

By using the Shared User feature, tenants can enhance convenience and security while maintaining full control over their unit’s access.
