List of smartphones compatible with the AirKey system
Please note that the smartphones’ compatibility depends on many factors
and not every smartphone that meets the minimum requirements can
guarantee compatibility. For this reason, EVVA comprehensively tests
smartphones. For a permanently up-to-date list of tested smartphone
models suitable for use with AirKey go to the list of compatible
smartphones.
Enabling access to "Telephone status and identity" is necessary to
uniquely identify smartphones when adding them to a new access control
system.
Access to the location is necessary because Android 6+ demands the
activation of location services to be able to scan for Bluetooth
components! If you would like to use Bluetooth functions in the AirKey
app, you must activate the location services as well as authorise the app to
access this data in the device settings. If you REFUSE to activate location
services, you can establish a connection to the components (media and
locking components) using NFC.
With Apple devices (iOS operating system) there is no option to deactivate
the "Access telephone status and identity" authorisation. iOS can also
search for Bluetooth components without having been granted access to
location services.
3.4 AirKey media
As media currently available are tested smartphone models as well as cards, key fobs, combi
keys and wristbands in various configurations, for example in combination with Mifare
DESFire EV1 technology.
The required data sheets as well as the product catalogue are available on our homepage in
the download section: https://www.evva.com/en/downloads/.
Media, such as cards, key fobs, combi keys or wristbands are supplied in
factory state. You must add media to your access control system before
being able to use them.
3.5 AirKey Online Administration
The AirKey Online Administration is EVVA’s online software solution to manage access
control systems. The electronic access control system is compatible with all common
Internet browsers and operating systems and does not require local software installations or
dedicated IT infrastructure. EVVA is responsible for live operation and maintenance of AirKey
servers.
