Gate Problems

The front gate almost never works on the first several attempts. Frequently, I have to exit through the entrance as well, because the exit never opens from my phone.

Broken app

This app worked for years, mostly well, now, totally broken, can’t use it, when I need it to save minutes moving my unit.

Distance

You have to be very close to the unit in order to activate it.

Genie 🧞‍♀️ Works Good 😊

Garbage

Waste of time!! This used to be a good app but it has been ruined by unnecessary updates. As a storage operator we used it with our gate system as it was super easy to set our customers up and we could tell them they didn’t need data as it only required Bluetooth. But now as it requires texting and codes and redundant bs we will not be telling our customers to use it . Definitely be looking into the gate software Sitelink is now offering. Thanks for making it worth the hassle of switching with your needless horrible for customer updates. But I’m sure it made some engineers life better so screw the customer right!
