DoorBird App certified as “Software Made in Germany”
Software security and quality confirmed by the German Association of Medium-Sized Enterprises in the IT Industry
The DoorBird app has been awarded the “Software Made in Germany” and “Software Hosted in Germany” quality seals. The German Association of Medium-Sized Enterprises in the IT Industry (Bundesverband IT-Mittelstand e.V., BITMi) awards the seals to German companies whose software meets particularly strict data security and quality criteria. The app is the central control tool for DoorBird IP video intercoms developed and manufactured by Bird Home Automation in Berlin.
With the DoorBird app, all functions of the DoorBird IP intercoms can be accessed and configured from any location. The app enables users to see on their smartphones and tablets who is ringing at the front door and talk to visitors. If someone presses the call button or a motion is detected, the door station sends automatic push notifications to the resident’s smart device. Electric door openers and connected smart locks can be unlocked comfortably from the app. Access rights, visitor history and action schedules are also configured via the app. The DoorBird app is available free of charge for iOS and Android devices.
The “Software Made in Germany” Initiative is under the patronage of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy. The “Software Made in Germany” seal is awarded to companies that develop their software in Germany, offer expert service and multilingual user interface and documentation. The “Software Hosted in Germany” seal confirms that the software data is hosted in a computer center in Germany, and that the hosting contract underlies the German data protection law.
