The Nimbio mobile app allows residents and property managers to open electronic gates directly from their smartphones. Available for free on iOS and Android, the app connects to the Nimbio cellular controller, eliminating the need for physical keys, fobs, or legacy call boxes.
Upgrade your property with Nimbio’s patented cellular retrofit technology. Our cloud-based access control system provides property managers, HOAs, and residents with seamless, secure, and modern gate management.
Remote Smart Gate Entry: Easily open your community gate or commercial door from anywhere using the Nimbio smartphone app.
Instant Digital Guest Keys: Securely grant and revoke digital access for visitors, delivery drivers, and service providers directly from your phone.
Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Integration: Leave your phone in your pocket. Securely open your gates directly from your vehicle’s dashboard screen for a frictionless entry experience.
Keyless Entry with Fob Compatibility: Eliminate the high cost of replacing lost clickers and RFID fobs. Nimbio operates alongside your existing legacy hardware, meaning old fobs will still work if residents prefer them.
Nimbio GuestView™ (One-Way Video): See who is at the gate, instantly. Visitors can request a one-way video call from the digital resident directory, allowing you to visually verify guests on your smartphone before granting access.
Eliminate Shared PIN Codes: Protect your community by replacing unsecure, untrackable shared 4-digit entry codes with individualized digital credentials.
Real-Time Access Logs: Property administrators can monitor current gate status and track exactly who has entered or exited the property with comprehensive digital access logs.
Automated “Hold Open” Scheduling: Property managers and administrators have the flexible ability to keep the gate open for a specific duration or set a recurring schedule for busy community events.
Over-the-Air (OTA) Updates: Future-proof your investment. Nimbio’s cloud-based system receives automatic over-the-air feature deployments, ensuring your community always has the latest security and functionality.
