Again, if you have the ability to use Android Pay then your phone will work Make sure your Android phone is not rooted. The app can’t be installed on rooted phones as the device is exposed to security threats. Make sure that your phone is running the latest available version of Android.

After this the key will work whether you have internet or not. Press the “Tap to use the lock” button. You will receive a pop up telling you your phone is ready to scan. Hold your phone up to the lock (for between 3 and 5 seconds usually) to unlock the door – It is very important that you hold the right part of your phone up to the lock.
