Level lock HomeKit seperate access

on a side note, if you really want to do this and cant grant access codes tiy cab automate it. you could make an NFC tag that has a web address associated with it ONLY accessible on your network. https://github.com/Djelibeybi/homebridge-button-platform this plugin creates virtual buttons that can be called using an API call. which could easily be triggered by visitng a web address. if you encode that address to the tag and only have it accessible on the network (so dont forward your ports to the open internet please) then the thinking is a guest could hop on wifi, scan the tag, then get entry KIND OF like HomeKey

Control KEF LS50 using a bluetooth button
1 project | /r/KEF | 15 Oct 2021

It is a little bit of a pain setting up flicd on a linux machine (I'm running it on a 15 dollar raspberry pi zero) but in case anyone else fancies swapping their remote for a single bluetooth button, the code is all [here](https://github.com/llvllch/flicKEF)
