For security reasons, home members do not by default get control of the Smart Door Lock from the Home + Security app when they are added. They must request it from another member who already has control.
Sharing control – User with control
- If you haven’t already done so, start by inviting the person you want to share control with to join your Home + Security home where the Smart Door Lock and Keys are installed.
- Open the Home + Security app.
- Go to Settings.
- Select User Management, then Home Users, and finally Invite a User.
- Once the new member is added to the Home + Security home, share control of the Smart Door Lock with them. To do so, make sure you meet the following criteria:
-
- You are within Bluetooth range of the product.
- You have the Property Card.
- You are with the new home member.
- Then follow these steps:
- Open the Home + Security app.
- Go to Settings.
- Select User Management, then Share Control.
- Lastly, follow the instructions shown in your app and the new home member’s app to complete the process.

Get control – User without control
- If you haven’t already done so, join the Home + Security home where the Netatmo Smart Door Lock and Keys are installed using the invite sent by the home member. (see step 1 of the “Sharing control” section above).
- Once you’ve been added to the Home + Security home, stand close to the Smart Door Lock (within Bluetooth range of the product, i.e., 5 metres maximum).
- You must be with a home member who already has control of the Smart Door Lock and who has the product’s Property Card.
- Tap the “Get control” button shown on the main menu of the Smart Door Lock in your Home + Security app, then follow the steps shown in your app and the other home member’s app.
