The iLOQ HOME mobile app works with most NFC-enabled Android phones. The Android OS version must be 9 or newer. However, considering the great variety of Android phones from different manufacturers out there, it is not guaranteed that the app works seamlessly in all Android phones. Therefore, it is recommended to test the application with your phone before taking it into full use.

Note: You must install the app first before registration.

Before installing the app, make sure that:

1. Your phone is NFC compatible.
   1. NFC is required for updating keys. The app can only be installed from Google Play on phones that support NFC. 
2. Your phone is not rooted.
   1. Rooting exposes devices to security threats. The iLOQ HOME mobile app cannot be installed and used in rooted devices.
3. Your phone operating system is running the latest available version. The Android OS version must be 9 or newer.
   1. This is to ensure your phone is protected by the latest security patches. For security reasons, it is important to always keep the operating system updated to the latest version.

The iLOQ HOME mobile app is free to install from Google Play. 

Note: You must have a Google account on your device to install apps from Google Play.
