How to set up and use Siri with your smart door entry system

How can I set up Siri or shortcuts with the app? Can I open the door with my Apple Watch?


The DuoxMe app supports the Siri ecosystem, allowing you to access some of the app's core functions through shortcuts and voice commands.

You can invoke Siri to perform the door opening, by saying something like: 

"Hey Siri, open Main gate in DuoxMe"
"Hey Siri, open Main gate"

On the Apple Watch, it is also possible to open the door via the created Shortcut.

"Hey Siri, open My Gate"
"Hey Siri, open Gate"
"Hey Siri, unlock Main Gate"
