Share codes
What is a Share code?
Share codes make it possible for someone with an openshock.app account to directly control your shocker with their account.
Share codes can only be used once!
You need to generate a new code every time you want to share the controls of your shocker with a new person. Shares are permanent until unshared/deleted by the owner of the shocker.
What you need
Create a share code
- Go to openshock.app and log in.
- Switch to the Shockers section.
- Open the context menu of the shocker you want a share code for (the three dots next to the name).
- Select Shares.
- Click on the green plus icon to generate a new share code.
- Send this code to a person you trust.
Use a share code
- Go to openshock.app and log in.
- Switch to the Shockers shared section.
- Click on the green plus icon.
- Type in the share code you received from someone.
Now the shocker is linked to your account and you can control it. 🎉
You can find all shockers you added with a share code on the same page in your account under Shockers → Shared.
Edit share code limits
You can also set limits on every share code.

For this step to work, someone has to use your share code first.
