Smart home control shaped around the stay.
Octopancy aligns supported smart-home controls with occupancy, from preparation before arrival to time-limited guest access.
Prepare before arrival
For example, configure how far ahead of arrival heating should be set to a planned temperature and reduced after the stay. The actual room temperature depends on the building and system.
Guest access with clear boundaries
Guests can use their smartphones to operate authorised controls during their stay. Compatible hardware, an operational provider connection and configured permissions are required.

Can guests control the heating?
Authorised, supported heating controls can be used by smartphone during the permitted period. Hosts define the allowed scope.
