All channels work on the same data. The same platform, wherever the booking actually happens – in the browser, on the move, in the team chat or on the way to the office. ## Key facts - **Web:** wa.doorjames.app in the browser - **Mobile:** native apps for iOS and Android - **Wearables:** Apple Watch and Wear OS - **In the car:** Apple Watch, Wear OS, CarPlay, widgets ## Features - **Web app** – Full functionality in the browser, no installation – the fastest route for desk-based work. - **Native apps** – iOS and Android with push notifications, QR scanner, geofencing and an offline-capable badge. - **Microsoft Teams** – Book without switching tools: the Teams app uses the Microsoft identity and shows activity in a Teams tab. - **Home screen widgets** – Agenda with tap-to-check-in, current booking, favourite colleagues and who is on site at a chosen office. - **Smartwatch** – Apple Watch and Wear OS: the next booking, check-in and the badge QR code on the wrist, with a next-booking tile and a watch-face complication on Wear OS. - **CarPlay** – Booking and check-in by voice on the commute, without picking up the phone. - **Outlook add-in** – A task pane while you create the meeting: it suggests Door James rooms and fills the appointment in, so the room is booked where the meeting is planned. - **Demo mode without an account** – A fully working version of the app with example data, reachable without a login – the fastest way to show a colleague what this actually looks like. - **Kiosk** – A tablet at reception for visitor self check-in and badge printing. - **Designed for accessibility** – Door James 2.0 is designed against BITV/WCAG 2.0 criteria. An independent certification has not been completed. ## One source of truth, many surfaces The number of channels is not an end in itself. It follows the observation that bookings rarely happen at a desk: the office day is planned on the sofa in the evening, the parking space booked on the way to the car, the room agreed in a Teams chat. Every missing channel shifts effort to reception or creates unbooked usage – and therefore inaccurate occupancy data. ## What belongs on which channel The web app remains the place for planning and overview. Native apps own everything related to arriving: check-in by scan or geofence, badge, push. Widgets and smartwatch reduce that to a glance or a tap. The Teams app targets organizations where Teams is the primary tool; it is deliberately lean and not a replacement for the Admin Panel. ## What users say about the app 4.4 of 5 – 45 ratings in the Apple App Store (DE), https://apps.apple.com/de/app/door-james/id6444570436 10,000+ downloads on Google Play, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgi.doorjames.companion - **The solution for a seamless hybrid work experience** (5/5, ~Dieter~, 2023-01-05, Apple App Store): "Door James is an excellent app for managing a hybrid work life.
