Introducing Offline Mode

Offline Mode enables residents and staff to unlock smart locks without internet connection.

Use the Homebase App Anywhere

Smart locks enable self-guided tours, instant move-ins, access notifications, activity tracking, in-unit grocery delivery, and more. But how do they perform in your parking garage located 4 stories underground with no service? If you have a community WiFi solution that is designed for seamless connectivity, like Homebase WiFi, you’re set. If not, connecting to your smart locks might be a struggle.ย 

Meet Homebase Offline Mode

Go off the grid ๐Ÿ”

No connection, no problem. Homebase residents and staff can now unlock Bluetooth-enabled locks without an internet connection. As more Homebase communities shift to a stress-free, app-only solution, parking garages, basements, and rural areas will see the same consistent Homebase performance as the rest of your community. Poor device connection should never be an issue for your staff or residents. With Offline Mode, regardless of your WiFi connection, it won’t be.ย 

How It Works

After creating a Homebase account, the app automatically saves each lock the user has access to. Using Bluetooth credential technology, Homebase instantly connects to the smart lock without the need for an internet connection. Bluetooth credentials are automatically generated for each community, ensuring every Homebase user has a fast, secure experience. Homebase is a hubless platform, making all of this possible at an affordable price.ย 

As always, if you are looking to improve connectivity in hard-to-connect areas of your community, Homebase offers community WiFi solutions for outdoor areas, parking garages, construction WiFi, and more.

With Homebase Offline Mode, you can trust that your smart locks will respond even when the internet doesn’t. Want to learn more? Chat with our experts about creating a smart building system that you can rely on.
