Approvals & Notifications
Every Guest Needs Your Approval — Every Entry Sends an Alert
Residents decide who gets a pass before a guest ever reaches the gate. Once a guard scans the QR code, the resident app sends a real-time notification confirming who entered and when.
- Approve or decline visitor requests from the app
- Get notified the moment a guest is scanned in
- Review entry history for every guest you invited
In-app notifications
- Approval requested for a guest at the gate
- Pass approved — QR sent to your guest
- Guest scanned in by the guard at the gate

Family Members
Give Every Family Member Their Own Access
Households are rarely just one person — GuardWatch reflects that.

Recurring help access
Standing passes for domestic help or day workers who visit regularly.

Visitors just show the QR code at the gate. No installs, no waiting.
Send via WhatsApp
Share the QR pass directly in a WhatsApp chat with your guest.
Send via SMS
No smartphone or app needed on their end — a text message works too.

FAQs
Resident App Frequently Asked Questions
Answers households ask before inviting their first guest.
How do residents invite visitors with GuardWatch?
From the resident app, a household enters the guest name and expected visit window. GuardWatch generates a unique QR pass that can be shared instantly via WhatsApp, SMS, or a direct link — no separate app install needed for the guest.
Do residents need to approve every visitor?
Yes. A visitor pass is created by a resident before the guest arrives, so entry is always tied to an approval from the household. Guards scan the QR code at the gate to confirm the pass instead of relying on a verbal call-up.
Can more than one family member use the resident app?
Yes. The head of household can add family members to the unit, and each family member can get their own app access to invite guests. The head of household retains visibility over all visitor activity for the unit.
How does the resident app handle deliveries and domestic help?
Residents can create a one-time QR pass for a single delivery or a recurring pass for domestic help and day workers who visit regularly, so frequent visitors do not need a fresh approval every time.
What notifications do residents get?
Residents are notified when a visitor request needs approval and again when a guard scans that guest in at the gate, so households know who entered and when without checking a paper register.
Does the guest need to install the GuardWatch app?
No. Guests only need to show the QR pass shared with them — by WhatsApp, SMS, or a link opened in any mobile browser. Only residents and guards need the GuardWatch apps.
Can residents see past visitor activity?
Yes. Every invite and gate scan tied to a household is stored, so residents can look back at who visited their unit and when, instead of relying on memory or a shared paper log.
