So you know those condo access cards?
the other day I saw a boy open the door using his phone but I was a bit paiseh to ask him how he set it up.
I’ve been googling etc but can’t find a way to add it. Does anyone know how to?

Most of these access cards are using rfid, which can be in a form of round rfid tag or credit card type.

How do you know the access card is actually not behind his phone?

Yup it's most probably rfid card. I find it extremely unlikely for any condo mcst to adapt NFC door/gate unlock. Unless TS talking about unit's digital lock, then there is the possibility 🤣

Ask your condo for what condo app they hav signed up for. Use that app to unlock. its by bluetooth.
But no point la, coz the app cannot activate the lift system.

The boy's parents most likely didnt give him a card, in case lost. He will have to go to lift lobby and intercom his parents.

No man I saw the boy open digital card wallet and the door opened. I was flabbergasted LOL
you probably should ask your MCST then. it's anybody's guess when there is lack of details.

which condo? you want to say? reduce guessing

Years ago i also saw someone tap his phone on the lift to go up without using his condo card.
I tried putting the card on the back of thr case but it can't detect so i think it's something to do with adding the card to an app like Apple wallet.
I also want to know the condo card is a hassle to bring sometimes forget the card have to intercom

maybe the type of case matters. like the material. and the thickness

You can check with your condo management. Chances might be the lock they use support home kit or are matter compatible lock. Then you can use your home kit app to set up.

I was bz carrying my baby and holding all the bags haha. I only know I saw the boy - confirm no card behind phone and opened up a wallet looking app and the door opened.

but he may have been using android lol this one I not sure.

but my condo is damn old, not the new fancy type and definitely not up to date with tech 😅😂😂

maybe go ask MCST when free. Just thought maybe can ask here see if anyone know. Condo card and work pass is the last two physical cards that’s forcing me to use a card wallet

But I got confused, thought is NFC. You guys are right it is 99% RFID.
Maybe it was an android phone that could copy rfid and create a digital card.

I dunno about iPhone... but I know Samsung pay (now Samsung wallet) may have this option ... you can store the loyalty cards or membership cards and call out virtually to tap and/or scan the hp screen instead

i used to put my card in between dbrandz skin and used it seamlessly. I have seen before in China that they can that electronic condo card for you. But not sure how it works.
