APPhone is a modern video intercom system right on your smartphone, designed for residents of modern housing communities, multi-family buildings, and private homes. With APPhone, your phone becomes a fully functional intercom handset. Answer calls wherever you are – at home, at work, or on the go. KEY FEATURES: • Real-time video calls: See and speak with visitors calling from the entry panel before opening the door. • Native iOS integration (Apple CallKit): Intercom calls ring just like standard phone calls – even with your screen locked. • Remote access control: Unlock pedestrian gates, entry barriers, or building entrance doors with a single tap. • Smart presence (Geofencing): The system optimizes call routing, prioritizing notifications when you are near your building. • Family & PIN management: Easily grant access to family members, generate custom access codes, and manage permissions. • Call history: Review call logs and see who visited your apartment while you were away. • Do Not Disturb (DND) mode: Silence intercom notifications whenever you need peace and quiet. GETTING STARTED: The app requires an active account associated with a building equipped with the APPhone intercom system. Contact your property manager to receive an invitation with your activation code.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: APPhone at none against Anker Nebula's 4. APPhone also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 5 weeks). Anker Nebula's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.4). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
