SMS / WhatsApp Users
What is it for?
The SMS/Whatsapp list shows the guests who signed up to your Wi-Fi with their phone number (SMS or WhatsApp verification). From here you can approve, block or delete a guest, or change their details, group and password.
When do I use it?
- You want to see whether a guest is registered and when they signed up.
- You want to stop (block) a guest's logins or allow them again.
- You want to move a guest to a longer-lasting group or delete their record.
Before you start
- The list shows the guests of the selected device.
- Numbers, first names and last names are masked under the Turkish data protection law, KVKK (example:
5306****15,Yu***). If you are allowed to see full values, open them with the eye icon; every reveal is written to the Audit Log. - Employees on the Excluded Users list are not shown here.
Step by step
- In the left menu open Guests and click SMS/Whatsapp.
- To find a guest, type in the Search... box at the top right. The newest sign-up is at the top. The Status column shows whether the guest can sign in; the Registration Type column shows whether they signed up by SMS (phone icon) or WhatsApp (WhatsApp icon).
- Use the buttons at the end of the row. Hover over a button to see its name: yellow Disable User (green Enable User if blocked), red Delete User, blue Edit User. If the guest is waiting for approval, a green Confirm button appears first.
- When you press Edit, the User Information tab opens. Change the guest's details and press Save.
- To change the guest's group or password, go to the Group and Password tab, pick the new group in Group, type a new Password if needed and press Save.

Frequently asked questions
The guest is on the list but cannot sign in.
Check the Status column. If it is Passive the guest is blocked; press Enable User. If it is Waiting for Approval, approve them.
Will a deleted guest come back?
If the guest connects and verifies by SMS/WhatsApp again, they are added as a new record. If you do not want them back, block instead of deleting.
Can I send a bulk message to the guests on this list?
Yes, only to guests who gave permission: use the Opted-in Guests and Bulk Send screens under Bumerang.
