[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so glad to finally have a smart lock that natively integrates with Apple HomeKit and Apple Home Key. The setup was brilliant with proximity NFC. No difficult WiFi setup processes or apps to register for.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Replacing a Schlage normal deadbolt with a smart one. The quality and consistency of the Schlage product Has brought me back year after year and this new smart deadbolt did not disappoint. Everything matches up and it was changed, programmed and I was done in under 30 minutes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this lock and within 15 minutes the old lock was removed and the new lock was successfully installed.
Then download the app connected to my WiFi and everything worked perfectly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looks Great, Easy to Install. App lacks visibility of keyboard, so a bit hard to set up without using a Bluetooth Apple Keyboard. Very happy with the flexibility of the codes because we have special needs person who tends to lose keys, and we can create a code she can remember.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installation is easy in place of old Schlage lock. Be sure to have a leveler when installing the lock to help align the plunger. One item that I have noticed is the keypad backlight. You can press the home/lock button to light the keypad. The predecessor is to press the SCHLAGE logo. One feature that I enjoy most is to unlock with Apple smart watch and iPhone when my hands are preoccupied. It does require Apple home kit setup. I don’t see this function with Android devices using Alexa or Google. It might able to check the lock status. But it wouldn’t be unlocking the lock.
