WI-FI SETUP
10/Verproof Biometric Safe Elite
The SmartLife app is an incredible management tool. Android users can download it from Google Play and iOS
can download from the Apple Store.
Scan the QR code on the right with your smartphone camera to access the video tutorial for Wi-Fi functions and
features or visit https://www.youtube.com/@Verproofsafe/playlists and select your model.
Pairing the Safe with the SmartLife App
1 On your smartphone, turn on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Open the SmartLife app, tap the “+” icon in the top-right corner, and tap “Add
Device”.
2 On the safe, press the “2” button, then press the Learn button.
The safe will announce “pairing” and the keypad will flash, indicating it has entered pairing mode.
3 On the "Searching for nearby devices" screen, your safe will appear. Tap it.
4 On the "Enter Wi-Fi Information" screen, select the Wi-Fi network that is the same as the one your smartphone is connected
to, enter the password, and tap Next. Wait for the safe to connect.
Upon successful connection, the safe will announce “connected”.
Pairing Time Limit: 2 minutes.
If the time expires, the red indicator light will flash 3 times with beeps and the safe will automatically exit pairing mode.
Note: For a successful connection, install the safe close to your Wi-Fi router. During pairing, keep your smartphone as near as pos-
sible to the safe.
VERPROOF WIFI SAFES WILL ONLY CONNECT TO 2.4 GHZ NETWORKS. ACCESS POINTS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED.
DASHBOARD FEATURES
11/Verproof Biometric Safe Elite
Upon successful connection, the app will display the dashboard for your safe.
The following features are available:
1 Settings (Fingerprints / Vacation Mode / Dual Entry)
Fingerprints: Edit fingerprint names. Delete individual fingerprints or all
fingerprints at once.
Vacation Mode: Toggle Vacation Mode. When enabled, fingerprints and
passwords are disabled; the safe can only be opened with the physical key.
Dual Entry: Toggle Dual Entry mode. When enabled, opening the safe re-
quires both entering the correct password and scanning a registered fingerprint
for dual verification.
2 History Log: Displays the safe’s opening records. These records cannot be
deleted unless the safe is unbound from the app.
Notes:
1 When no external power is connected and the safe is in wake-up mode, op-
erating the app will keep the safe awake. If no operations are performed for 20
seconds, the safe will enter sleep mode and can no longer be controlled via the
app. To wake the safe and restore control, press any key on the safe’s keypad.
When external power is connected, the fingerprint light will continuously pulse
blue (breathing eect), indicating wake-up mode. The app can control the safe at
any time.
2 If the safe is too far from the Wi-Fi router, app operations may respond slowly.
Please be patient or reposition the safe closer to the router.
Tips: Every time the safe wakes up, it needs about 5 seconds
to connect to the server. During this short period, you may
notice a slight lag in the dashboard feedback.
We recommend keeping it plugged into the external power
supply — this way, the safe and server will stay constantly
connected.
