Nice Lock - skip WiFi and connect with Matter

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ought and installed three of these Encode Plus locks. We use HomeKit and want a lock that integrates nicely.
Physical Installation was quick and easy. Good instructions and the process is straight forward.
Software Installation I initially setup on the Schlage App connecting the locks via WiFi as it instructs. Minor hiccups but was successful with all three. I have multiple WiFi antennas so each lock was close to a WiFi antenna.
After just a couple weeks the brand new batteries were running down on all three. I replaced with brand new batteries. After another 3-4ish weeks the batteries were running down again. This went on for several months. Did some internet research and others switched from WiFi to Matter/Thread connectivity.
I had to delete the locks from HomeKit and Schlage App, but was successful factory resetting and this time installed via the Apple HomeKit leveraging Matter/Thread. WOW! What a difference. Functionally there is no difference, but battery life is triple (or more!) verses WiFi. Again the functionality is identical but much better battery life.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this lock. It does everything I need. Several codes for family and friends. Don't have to have keys, quick entry. Whst i like the most is that I can open and close the door with my phone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having the flexibility to not only make sure I did lock the door when I left home but to also allow others into the house when I’m not home with WiFi capability has been a game changer. Love it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don’t ever need to worry about forgetting my keys at home again or take the time to walk down two flights of stairs to open the front door now. Awesome product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have now installed a couple of these locks for my customers and hands down one of the best electronic locking system. Very easy to program and connect WiFi and directions make it a very easy install.
