Route buzzer calls to your phone
Forward every buzzer ring to the right people instantly, including roommates, concierge, or security, so someone always answers.
Phone buzzer app for apartments
Route buzzer calls to your phone, buzz someone in remotely, and stop missed deliveries with Protobuzz.
Why use a phone buzzer app
Buzz someone in remotely
Unlock from anywhere with tap-to-open controls and caller ID so you know who entered and when.
Missed-delivery prevention
Create call chains, SMS fallbacks, and delivery windows so couriers get in on the first attempt.
Roles and permissions
Assign who can answer calls, unlock doors, or create guest links, ideal for property teams and households.
History you can trust
See who answered, who unlocked, and which calls escalated to backups for full accountability.
Works with existing panels
Keep your current buzzer hardware; Protobuzz layers software routing on top without rewiring.
Buzz someone in from anywhere
Keep your existing call buzzer while adding modern controls: call routing, unlock permissions, delivery windows, and audit-ready logs. Protobuzz makes the buzzer as flexible as the rest of your building software.
Whether you live in a condo, run a rental portfolio, or staff a concierge desk, you can see every call, route it to the right person, and open the door with confidence.
How it works
Forward your buzzer
Point your existing buzzer number to Protobuzz without touching the panel hardware.
Add who should answer
Choose the phones to ring (roommates, concierge, security) and set the order or simultaneous ring.
Control unlock rules
Decide who can unlock, add delivery windows, and set SMS fallbacks so no call is missed.
