Download GateZ 1.8 on Windows PC – 7.7 MB

No more wasting time and touching your phone while driving, with GateZ your call based gate will open for you like a charm the moment you approach it.

After a very short setup you will no longer have to call the gate yourself, instead we will do it for you.

The setup includes 3-steps:

1. Set the gate phone number.
2. Set the gate closing hours (from when and until when it is closed).
3. Mark the gate location (either on map or by standing next to it and using current location).

Thats it! The next time you will approach the gate GateZ will automatically call the gate for you so by the time you arrive it will be wide open for you, like a magic!

Gatez also allows you to pre-define a special key phrase that upon receiving an WhatsApp message containing that key phrase, GateZ will automatically prompt you to open the gate. It is up to you to share that key phrase with the correct friends.
More then that you can create your own favourite friends list, that upon receiving the sms from them the gate will automatically open without the need of manual confirmation.

In order for GateZ to work you must enable Location services in your phone but don't worry about the power consumption, GateZ only use your location while you are driving the car and the greater the distance between you and the gate the less location we use.

More then that, GateZ can also detect driving upon connecting to your car Bluetooth hands-free device. This is recommended since it is more precise and energy saver.

Attention Xiaomi users: in order for the app to work please allow it the AutoStart option in the privacy settings.
