Manage Auto-Verified Guest access at your property (for property managers)

Amazon Key Access Control System's Auto-Verified Guest feature allows residents to grant scheduled access to trusted visitors through the Ring app. They can add their trusted guests and set specific schedules for when they can enter your property. Auto-Verified Guests can then access your property via their Ring app.


Important note: For properties that have at least one Amazon Key Access panel (Virtual Intercom) installed, you can additionally enable settings that require Auto-Verified Guests to tap on the Amazon Key Access panel to verify their physical presence at the property before they start using Amazon Key Access. Once verified, they can unlock Amazon Key Access entrances directly from their Ring app. You can also set the duration after which the Auto-Verified Guest need to re-verify their presence.

As a Property Manager, you can:

  • Control whether residents can share access with Auto-Verified Guests
  • Set a limit on the number of Auto-Verified Guests that can be added by each resident
  • Determine which Entrances can be accessed by Auto-Verified Guests
  • Define access schedules for each shared Entrance
  • Monitor unlock events of Auto-Verified Guests at your property
