SmartRent

Smart home controls for residents

SmartRent is a House & Home app for residents living in properties equipped with SmartRent-connected devices. It brings common home controls into one place, including door access, thermostat settings, and selected smart home services. It suits renters who want to manage their apartment remotely rather than rely on separate controls or physical keys.

Useful access and automation tools

• Remote entry: Lock or unlock a connected door from the app when you are away from home.
• Guest access: Provide temporary access codes for visitors, cleaners, maintenance workers, or other trusted guests.
• Climate control: Adjust connected thermostats and create schedules around your routine.
• Home alerts: Receive notifications for supported events such as possible moisture or leak detection.
• Activity history: Review entry and exit events to keep track of access to the property.

Designed around everyday property tasks

The app focuses on actions residents are likely to need quickly, such as checking a lock, changing the temperature, or confirming a guest’s access. Its usefulness depends on the devices and services installed at the property, so not every feature will be available to every resident. SmartRent can also work with selected third-party products and platforms, including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Ring, where supported.

How it is rated

SmartRent is published by SmartRent and has more than 500,000 installs. Its average rating is 4.37 out of 5 from about 20,599 reviews. Those figures suggest a generally positive response, while the property-specific hardware requirements remain the main limitation: the app is most useful when your building already uses the SmartRent system.
