Parrow Entry puts your property's entrance — gate, lobby, or front door — right on your phone. When a visitor arrives at your community gate or building entrance, Parrow Entry rings your phone with a live video call — even when your phone is locked. See who's there, talk to them, and open the gate or unlock the door with a single tap, from anywhere in the world. No more missed deliveries. No more driving down to the gate. No more buzzer you can't hear. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Answer the door by video or voice — see and speak with visitors before letting them in • Unlock the door, gate, garage, or elevator with one tap • Arriving yourself? Open your own gate or door straight from the app the moment you pull up — no fob, no keypad, no keys to fumble for • Create guest passes so friends, family, and services can get in without you — save them to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet • Issue PIN codes for visitors to enter at the keypad • Share access with your household — everyone's phone rings, and whoever answers first takes the call • See your full entry history — every call, unlock, and pass in one place • Get an instant notification the moment someone's at your door BUILT FOR HOW YOU LIVE • Full-screen incoming calls, even on the lock screen • Manage access at more than one property from a single app • Available in English, Spanish, and French • Fast, secure, and private by design WHERE PARROW WORKS Parrow Entry is built for every kind of controlled entry — gated communities, apartment and condo buildings, HOAs, offices and commercial buildings, and retail sites. It works for residents, tenants, employees, and on-site staff alike: let visitors in, or open your own gate or door when you arrive.
