We have all been in a situation where you need to buzz up your roommate's food delivery, Amazon delivery, or their hundredth guest during one of their parties. To make matters worse, if you are unavailable to answer the buzzer then your roommate has to make the trek down to your building lobby.

Dingbot solves this issue by letting everyone in your apartment suite answer the buzzer and intercom door from their phone. In this post we will be going over how to open your intercom door with multiple phones. We will show how easy it is to add others to your apartment buzzer through the Dingbot app, and how you can instantly change who is answering it with a simple button tap.

One Tap Is All It Takes

After signing up for Dingbot, you are given a special Dingbot number which you hook up to your intercom in the place of your phone number. The Dingbot app takes care of everything from there!

The Dingbot app was designed with simplicity and ease of use at the top of mind. Changing the buzzer is as simple as navigating to the "Change Buzzer" screen and tapping the face of those you want to answer the buzzer. Hit "Save" and you are immediately shown an updated view of the buzzer, so you always know exactly who is answering it at any given time.

You can even select multiple people to answer the buzzer at once, in which case all of your phones will ring at the same time when someone buzzes up to your suite. Or, set a "Buzzer Priority" if you are feeling extra fancy, so your roommate's phone will only ring for the buzzer if you miss the call.

Your Suite, Your Rules

When you first sign up for Dingbot and create your suite in the Dingbot app, you are given a unique invite code. Give others your code when they sign up and they will instantly join your suite. Your invite code is unique to your suite, so you can have confidence that only those you give the code can join.

That's all for now, till next time! 💜
