Annoying Operation

Too much “carousel” effects at my building’s lobby access points. Can’t select the one I want when it sound like that.
Same thing goes for the elevators, with the added annoyance that it takes forever for my floor to be selected, and the Elevators section doesn’t take any touch commands on my phone’s screen, and that’s for the 1% of the time it actually works at all.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your feedback. We'll explore ways to make the door tiles easier to select. For the elevator controls, please contact us through the app directly so that we can help troubleshoot that issue. In the app menu, select "Contact Kastle" and email us from there.

Great for pandemic safety

My company is using this app in conjunction with some motorized doors and a “destination” elevator at our building. Walking through doors hands free is of course fantastic, but I also really appreciate the touch free destination elevator integration. It’s not normally a big deal to touch an elevator display to select what floor I want to go to, but these aren’t normal times, and I’d rather keep my interactions with high-touch surfaces to a minimum. The app lets me select my floor through it - so no touching the elevator display.

Worst app, Technology gone bad

This is the worst app I have ever used on an iPhone. This is an example of technology making our lives more difficult and complicated. Using a badge for building and elevator access is a lot more effective than this app. Almost every time you open this app it has several annoying pop ups that do not let the app work effectively, causing you delays to open doors or use an elevator. Often times in my case I am carrying my laptop bag and maybe other items that make it really difficult to dismiss the pop ups and operate the elevator in a timely manner.
