[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to install as a standard deadbolt. It’s a bit annoying to set up the watch and phone feature. It basically wouldn’t connect for me to set it up. You have to put in a code that doesn’t seem to communicate with anything.
I have the app I don’t know why it can’t just add itself. I can unlock it from my phone but not with my NFC connection. Make it make sense.
It’s a deadbolt. So it secures good enough.
The buttons are hard to see until they light up. Needs a sensor to light up the keypad when you approach.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lock has been so convinient for me, I no longer have to worry about loosing my key. It was easy to Install. It connects to my phone, I get notifications whenever someone enters exits my home. I can make temporary passwords to any family member that I need to give access to. I get alerts. It Interface has a beautiful sleek design not bulky. I put this lock in all my homes. And one of my vAcant homes there was several attempt of burglaries and it was impossible for them to break this lock.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installation was super easy and quick. The directions easy to follow. We love that we can control this lock remotely and with Apple Home.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Product was simple to install following along with the wizard. Great, as always, to be able to match the physical keys with our other Schlage locks. I love how we can have multiple ways to enter the home, I don’t have an Apple Watch, but my wife does and she loves using her watch to unlock. Being able to remotely lock the house is really provides peace of mind. It integrated seamlessly with Apple home kit. Obviously very happy with our selection
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy install. Works great with Airbnb. However, if I'd of known beforehand, VRBO bookings can't be "Saved" the same way as Airbnb, I wouldn't have let the the Apple integration. Apparently, when agreeing to Apple, it takes away the Schlage feature of saving a VRBO guest name under the number assigned to them. I looked all over the Schlage site without any luck. I found info about the Apple issue on a search on the internet. Now I have to return and fix the issue with a reset. 140 mile trip.
