[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We absolutely love the stylish lines and the quality construction of the lock, which is a Schlage trademark. The ease of installation was a precursor to the feature rich functionality of the app. Adding access accounts and monitoring usage is super easy and the notifications make this a perfect lock/app to manage access to our home.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that I able to have control and see who access the locks with pre designed codes, I can track usage and eliminate codes easily while storing a large amount of access codes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use. Can put up to 100 codes in it. Automatically syncs with Airbnb. Very convenient and anyone can set up.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This would be a great lock if it wasn’t but for a few poorly designed and not very thought out features first if you live anywhere where there’s humidity or even a big variance or temperature swing you’re gonna have sweat in the lock you can put desiccant packets inside there and frequently open it up and dried out, but any place with humidity or any moisture in the air or any ability to have moisture in the air from hot or cold outside and opposite temperature inside you’re going to run into this wet problem. The company was great about supporting it and sending me a replacement lock, but the sweat still consent continues even in the new lock second, the programming is absolutely atrocious. The instructions look so simple but they just don’t work most of the time you have to reset the lock over and over again until it finally works. I work in technology for a living. Every once in a while, something comes along with the instructions are very easy however, it just doesn’t perform the way the instructions say it will. This is one of those things overall I love the features. I love opening it up with my Apple Watch and or my phone. I love that it connects to Apple home using matter and or Alexa or Google. It just has some really quirky things.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installation was straightforward. The app connectivity works well and being able to set multiple custom access codes is great.
My only complaint is sometimes the lock doesn’t recognize you touching the buttons and without you realizing.
