Access Smarter Living with the New RemoteLock Resident App

Today’s residents expect more from their living experience. From mobile keys to smart thermostats, convenience is no longer a luxury — it’s a standard. That’s why RemoteLock is proud to introduce the RemoteLock Resident App, designed to give multifamily residents simple, secure control over their access and climate preferences, right from their smartphone.

This app enhances the resident experience while saving property managers valuable time. With streamlined access and automation features, the RemoteLock Resident App reflects what today’s renters want most: simplicity, security, and smart technology that fits seamlessly into daily life.

What the RemoteLock Resident App Offers

The new RemoteLock Resident App allows residents to:

  • Unlock doors to their unit, building, and shared amenities using their smartphone
  • Temporarily unlock doors for guests remotely without needing staff involvement
  • Adjust thermostat settings remotely for the perfect temperature

These features provide unmatched convenience for residents. And because the app is powered by RemoteLock’s access-centered platform, residents can count on a secure, reliable experience with every interaction.

To enable these features, property managers must use Bluetooth-enabled locks and compatible Honeywell thermostats, added to their RemoteLock dashboard.

Why Residents Will Love It

For many renters, managing everyday life from a mobile device is second nature. The RemoteLock Resident App meets those expectations with:

  • Seamless entry: No more fumbling with keys, keeping track of fobs, or remembering PINs. Residents can simply tap their phone to gain access where permitted, whether at their unit door or shared facilities.
  • Real-time climate control: Whether heading home or turning in for the night, thermostat settings are always at their fingertips.
  • Guest access: With temporary unlocks, residents can let friends or delivery drivers in with ease — without leaving their unit or compromising security.

This isn’t just a convenience upgrade. It’s an essential part of creating a smart home experience that today’s residents actively seek.

Why Property Managers Should Take Advantage

Offering a branded resident app isn’t just a nice-to-have. It’s quickly becoming an expectation. According to recent industry surveys, a majority of renters want smart devices — like locks and thermostats — to be offered in the units they rent.

RemoteLock’s Resident App helps multifamily operators:

  • Reduce calls and office visits 
  • Lower utility costs through energy-saving features
  • Increase resident satisfaction with intuitive, single-app control
  • Scale easily across properties without upgrading locks or Wi-Fi coverage
  • Secure account-based changes that limit privileges to authorized users

Because the app works in tandem with RemoteLock’s access control platform, you get all the oversight and control you need — without creating more work for your team.

One Platform, Complete Control

The RemoteLock Resident App is part of a growing suite of tools designed to centralize and simplify multifamily property operations. RemoteLock already integrates with more than 50 property management software systems, giving operators a single solution for managing access, climate, and more.

Whether you’re managing 30 units or 3000, the RemoteLock Resident App adds convenience for your residents and efficiency for your team. Discover how it fits into your property strategy.
