Do I still need browser notifications if I use the app?

Residents who install the native app get VoIP-style incoming calls. Browser Web Push remains available for desktop users.

Can guests use the mobile app?

Yes. Guest mode uses the same public portal APIs; QR or HTTPS links can open the app when installed.

Use the same OpenApp account you already use at openapp.house. If your organization uses its own OpenApp web address, that works too.

Native OpenApp Intercom apps answer visitors with the system call UI, then connect over WebRTC (same PeerJS signaling as the dashboard).
