The safe gate opener — phone, Android Auto & Automotive OS
Last updated: 2026-06-13
Gate (package pt.familius.gate) is a tailored app developed by Familius LDA, for Android phones, Android Auto and Android Automotive OS that opens your own gate, garage or door by triggering a Shelly relay. This policy explains what the app stores and sends.
To operate your equipment, you enter your own Shelly Cloud details in the app's settings: the Shelly API URL, your Shelly authorization key, and your device IDs/channels. You may also enter an optional one-time "sync" URL to import these settings.
These settings are stored only on your device (in the app's local storage). They are not uploaded to us, and the app contains no analytics, advertising, or tracking.
When you tap to open a device (or an auto-open countdown completes), the app sends a request directly to the Shelly Cloud API using your credentials, to switch your relay. This is the only network destination the app contacts, other than an optional sync URL that you explicitly enter to import your settings.
We do not collect, sell, or share your data. Communication is between your device and Shelly Cloud (operated by Shelly/Allterco), governed by Shelly's own privacy policy.
Uninstalling the app, or clearing its data in Android settings, permanently removes all stored settings from your device.
