eKEY for iPhone!


Below are some frequently asked questions about the new eKEY for iPhone product.



When will eKEY for iPhone be available?

eKEY Basic and eKEY Professional for iPhone are available now

The iPhone does not have Infrared, how will it work?

We have created a Supra iPhone Adapter which plugs into the 30 pin dock connector. It adds Infrared to the Phone. It is designed to hang from a key chain when not in use. When you are ready to show a house, just slide it out of its cover, and plug it into your iPhone.

How much does the Supra iPhone Adapter cost?

There is a one time fee of $55 to purchase the iPhone adapter. To use the eKEY software there is a monthly key fee like our other keys. The monthly key fee varies by Board or MLS


Will the Supra iPhone Adapter require batteries?

No! The Adapter gets its power from the iPhone, thus no batteries to change and it will never need to be charged.

Will eKEY for iPhone work with the eKEY Fob (the one that works with the BlackBerry)?

The eKEY fob used for BlackBerry and Windows Mobile devices will not work with the iPhone. It was necessary to design an accessory specifically for the iPhone. Thus, we decided to create an adapter that would plug directly into the phone. In this way the eKEY for iPhone is a fully integrated solution.

How do I get eKEY for iPhone?

eKEY for iPhone will be issued just like the other eKEYs. When the product is released, the Supra iPhone Adapter will be available for purchase directly from Supra and from most Boards and MLSs. After you have your adapter, you can download the software from the App Store, and get an eKEY serial number and authentication code from your Board or MLSs. Once the authorization code is entered into the software, you are ready to open lock boxes with your iPhone!

Moving from DisplayKEY or ActiveKEY is a very simple process. It will only take a few minutes at your local Board or MLS (whoever issued you your current key), and you will be opening lock boxes with your iPhone.

What models of iPhones will be supported?

eKEY for iPhone will run on all current models of iPhone (2G, 3G, 3Gs). It will also run on the new iPhone 4. Note that for 2G, 3G, and 3Gs devices, you must have iPhone OS 3.1.3 or above.

How do I get the software on my iPhone?

The eKEY for iPhone app will be on the Apple App Store. The download will be free. While the software itself is downloaded free, there will be an ongoing monthly charge for the key service.

Is there a way to see how eKEY for iPhone works before I buy it?

Yes. There will be a demo version of the software. It will be on the App Store and it will let you check out all the eKEY Basic features. To start using it to open lock boxes you will just need to to speak to your Board or MLS and get an authorization code.
