What is the ParkStash Access Control App?

The ParkStash Access Control App is a versatile mobile application that lets permit holders open gates, doors, and amenities using their phone. It supports multiple access methods—Remote button press, Bluetooth tap, QR code scan, and integrates with LPR (license plate) access. Everything is tied to digital permits, so access is automatically granted or revoked based on permit status.

What access methods does the app support?

The app supports four access methods: (1) Remote Access - press a button to open gates over cellular, (2) Bluetooth - tap or get near Bluetooth readers, (3) QR Code - scan auto-refreshing QR codes at readers, and (4) LPR Integration - drive up and the camera reads your plate. All methods work from the same app and are tied to your digital permit.

Can the app control amenities like pools and gyms?

Yes! The Access Control App isn't just for parking gates. It can control access to swimming pools, fitness centers, clubhouses, package rooms, laundry facilities, and any door or gate with compatible access hardware. Access to each amenity is controlled by permit type.

How does permit-based access work?

Access is determined by your digital permit type. For example, a resident permit might grant access to the parking gate, pool, and gym, while a visitor permit only opens the parking gate. When permits expire or are revoked, access is automatically removed—no manual updates needed.

Do I need different apps for different access methods?

No. The ParkStash Access Control App is a single, unified app that supports all access methods. Whether you're using Remote, Bluetooth, QR Code, or LPR, it's all in one app connected to your digital permit.

What happens if my permit expires?

When your permit expires, all associated access is automatically revoked. You won't be able to open gates or amenities until your permit is renewed or extended. This happens in real-time—no manual intervention required by property staff.

Is the app available on iOS and Android?

Yes. The ParkStash Access Control App is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. It works on all modern smartphones and updates automatically with new features.

How do visitors get access through the app?

Visitors receive a digital permit (via email or text) with instructions to download the Access Control App. Once they activate their permit in the app, they can use whichever access method is configured for visitors at your property—typically Remote or QR Code access.

Is access activity logged?

Yes. Every access event is logged with the permit holder's identity, access method used, time, and location (which gate/door/amenity). Property managers can view complete access logs in the dashboard for security and auditing purposes.

What property types benefit from the Access Control App?

Any property with gated access or controlled amenities benefits: apartment communities, student housing, commercial office buildings, gated communities, retail centers, medical facilities, and industrial properties. The app scales from small properties to large portfolios.
