Solid, durable product, but with some limitations

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Encode Plus a nice product that has plenty of convenience features. It was easy to install and was mostly easy to set up. It was a bit slow at times to connect to my phone, but the real downside was that you can only connect to EITHER Apple HomeKit or A Google Assistant, not both. So households with mixed operating systems will not have feature or convenience parity. The app itself gives a sense of security, since you can check to see if it was locked, and remotely lock it if needed. I also wish that it has a proximity sensor to light up the keypad when approaching at night, since it's dark. The battery life isn't bad, maybe 2 months with daily usage before needing to change.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good features, love not having to give a key to someone that needs access to my home and worrying whether they duplicated it or not (Too much dateline perhaps but a real worry nevertheless).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Getting an installed, I had an issue with the door, not the lock. Install installed and downloaded the program. I like to feature that I can put it on the Airbnb app and schedule new codes with Tenants. I’d highly recommend this product.

Great Connectivity without WiFi or cell service

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The instructions were written so well that my 15 year old son installed the lock, set up the app, and got our phones and watches set up in about an hour. We needed an Apple TV box to complete the setup. We used a phone hotspot to provide WiFi to set everything up since our Internet was down. This lock still works without internet with our Apple Watches and phones. My youngest daughter doesn’t have cell service or wifi on her phone and she can still unlock the door with her phone and watch.

Safe and easy to use lock

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the older schlage lock (connect), but this one is in different level due to its connection to wifi. You can view and control you door lock.

Great product overall, few things to improve

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall a very solid product. Works well, strongly built. I was shocked at how easy it was to set up. App is good on the Android platform. My one hope would be that they create a web app to manage the lock access on the PC/Mac platform.
Otherwise very happy with the deadbolt. Will likely buy more in the future.
