Access Control
With zendō you can personalise the floorplan for each member of your family.
Intro
Access Control allows you to decide who can see and control each accessory on your floorplan.
You have three options for each accessory:
Everyone (no restrictions)
Show to: only the selected People will see and control the accessory
Hide from: the selected People won’t be able to see and control the accessory, but everyone else can
Setup Access Control for an accessory
Enter edit mode (Settings, then “Edit Floorplan”)
Tap on an accessory on the floorplan or on “Manage Media Players”
Scroll down to the “Access Control” section
Change the settings to your liking and save
Admins will see
all accessories
when in edit mode. Access Control filters are applied after saving.
Inspiration: examples of Access Control
Here are some examples of Access Control settings you can apply:
Hide accessories from kids so they can control only their own room
Simplify your setup for guests by hiding accessories they don’t need to control (e.g., appliances, robot hoovers, etc.)
