Getting started
Last verified: October 4, 2026This guide is for the SAGE app (version 3) and management portal you use today. See the guide for the new apps.
The SAGE app is how you get through your community’s gates and manage who else can come in. It runs on iPhone and Android. From the app you can open gates, add guests and one-time codes, and see every property you have access to.
How you get started
You can’t sign up for SAGE on your own. Someone has to invite you first: your community’s management team, or a resident who adds you to their household or guest list. When the invitation is ready, SAGE sends you a text message with a link to download the app.
- Get registered - If your community gave you an enrollment link or QR code, use it to register your household. Management reviews it before invitations go out.
- Download the app - Tap the link in your invitation text. See Download the app.
- Set up your account - Open the app and enter the phone number your invitation was sent to. See Set up your account.
- Verify your identity - The app may ask you to photograph a government-issued ID. See ID verification.
- Sign in - After that, sign in with your email and password.
The first time you open the app it shows Let’s set you up!, the screen for new invitations. If you already have an account, tap Sign in under Already have an account?.
Around the app
- Home screen - The address at the top is the property you’re using. Tap it to switch properties. Below it are the Guests, Codes and Access Keys tabs. Which tabs you see depends on your role at the property.
- Profile - Tap your initials at the top left for your access keys, vehicles, invitations, password and support.
- Notifications - Tap the bell at the top right to see recent activity.
You can also use SAGE in a web browser with the same email and password.
