Ive tested Ring, Hikvision, cheapo Chinese, dahua doorbell and Dahua telephone entry, they all ring your phone via an app but none unlock the phone. Yeah the call goes though but it doesnt unlock the phone, even when Im on a call I have to use my fingerprint if i need to unlock it. If an app unlocked phones it would be a big security risk. It can be made to unlock the phone using Tasker but I dont like the idea of my phone being insecure in any way with bank apps and other financial apps like wechat and Revolute on it, its changed from being a phone to being a personal computer, that I holds more than just my phone contacts.

Ok I misunderstood, as I am dodgy engineer who doesn't read things ,I though you meant to answer a call you need to u lock the phone , but yes apps don't unlock phones , I assume a rooted phone with special app would do it , same way trusted devices settings unlock the phone you might get an app that is trusted and phone unlocks when it rings it , not seen the latter tho , or tried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driller Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) Just seen this topic. If it's any help have a look at Doorbird (doorbird.com), I installed one at work and very happy with it. Very nice looking stainless call units with multiple call units to mobile and all highly configurable (relays, movement detection onboard etc), also has an indoor monitor screen option.
