## What is ACIE AC_BL?

Acie AC-BL turns your iPhone into the key to your accesses. It works with ACIE Bluetooth access-control readers (LEC-BL, CLBC-2C and CLBL-2C WDT).

OPEN WITH ONE TAP
Get close to the reader, select it and press the button. The app tells you straight away whether the identification succeeded or access was not allowed, and your iPhone vibrates to confirm.

HANDS-FREE
Turn on hands-free and the reader will identify you as you approach, with your iPhone locked in your pocket. It keeps working with the app in the background.

ONE BUTTON FOR EACH ACCESS
Give each reader a name you recognise ("Community garage", "Entrance 1") and choose its button: push button, key, slide, press and hold, barrier, sliding gate, garage door, swing gate, turnstile or glass doors.

SIRI AND QUICK ACTIONS
Open your accesses with Siri ("Hey Siri, open Garage with AC-BL") or by pressing and holding the app icon.

IDENTIFICATION LOG
See the last 1000 identifications, with date, time, reader and mode (remote or hands-free). The log is stored only on your iPhone and you can clear it at any time.

FOR INSTALLERS
Configure the readers from the app (read format, output protocol, detection distance, LED indicators…) and prepare your customers' phones: name each access, choose its button and share it with a QR code, WhatsApp or email. The customer imports it and their app is ready.

YOUR IPHONE IS YOUR KEY
Each iPhone has its own key number. Register it in the access-control system just like another card.

PRIVACY
The app does not collect or send any personal data. All information (key, names, log) is stored only on your iPhone.

Requires an ACIE Bluetooth reader and your key to be registered in the installation.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-11-05

• Add to Siri: in Readers, ⋮ menu of each access, record your own phrase (for example "Garage AC-BL"). When you say it, Siri opens the access without opening the app, even with the iPhone locked, and tells you the result. Works from iOS 15.
• Your installer can include a Siri phrase for each access in the site QR: when you import it, just tap "Add".
• Hands-free: the "Hands-free on" notice comes back when you leave the app and, by touching and holding it, you can turn hands-free off without opening AC-BL.
• If AC-BL notifications are turned off, the Hands-free screen warns you and takes you to Settings.
• Stability improvements.

### 1.1 — 2026-11-03

• Siri tells you the result: "Hey Siri, open Garage with AC-BL" now waits for the reader's answer and tells you whether it opened, access was not allowed or it could not connect. Also in the car with CarPlay.
• Hands-free indicator: on iOS 16.1 or later it shows as a Live Activity on the Lock Screen; on iOS 15 and 16.0, as a silent notice in Notification Centre. New "AC-BL hands-free" widget for the Home Screen and Lock Screen, with the last read.
• Notice if the app is closed with hands-free on, so you know to open it again.
• Set up customers' phones: the button for each access is chosen by seeing the animated buttons, as in Readers.
• The keyboard now closes when you tap outside the text field (link code, PIN, names…).
• Stability improvements.

### 1.0 — 2026-11-02
