Feature Overview
The Door Status feature in BioStar Air provides real-time monitoring of doors connected to the system. Administrators can check whether doors are locked or unlocked, view door sensor status, and remotely control access by locking or unlocking doors.
Note: Customers who began using BioStar Air access control before May 2025 may still be using the Airfob Space app, which has since been rebranded as the Suprema Pass app. Both apps offer identical functionality and are fully compatible. There is no need for existing users to switch — mobile credentials work seamlessly across both.
