Review on Yale Assure Lock Touchscreen, Wi-Fi Smart Lock - Ultimate Accessibility with Yale 🔒 Access App, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, HomeKit, Phillips Hue, Samsung SmartThings - Satin Nickel by Viswanath Badasz

I bought this digital door lock because it was the only one on the market that had all of the following: 1) Has a key fuse (electronics can fail and is the only if you entered my apartment, I couldn't afford to take the risk of not getting in. If you have a house with a different door, you risk being left without a key) 2) Automatic lock and unlock function based on my presence on the phone (this lock excels at that. I just have to turn on bluetooth, which is for my car anyway. No need to open the app. I just close the door and it locks automatically, and when I get home the Door automatically as soon as I get close.You don't need to take your phone out of your pocket or worry that d the app is running. It really is that simple.) 3) Connect to Wi-Fi (allows me to get alerts on who is entering or exiting my neighbors in an emergency. Handyman when he calls by just pressing a button in the app on my phone) 4 ) Keyboard to enter a code for entry (permanent or temporary) 5) It's not too inconvenient to look for a double electronic/key lock. Others are too industrial or just plain ugly. I see others saying such things don't work or are broken. I had a problem that I caused myself. After installation, everything did not work stably. While I was able to lock the door with the key, the automatic locking and unlocking was unreliable. I also noticed that the privacy button doesn't work. After some research I found that the latch could not be fully extended as the existing hole in the door was about 1/8 inch too small for it. After wasting it, everything worked great. This is an area where Yale could improve troubleshooting. While he likes to talk and let you know his status (I turned that off in the advanced settings as it's annoying after the first time), it doesn't tell you something's wrong, it just doesn't work reliably. The only other element that may put people off is that you have a "jumper" plugged into an outlet to control the lock over wifi/internet. But it's industry standard as Bluetooth is energy efficient while Wi-Fi is not. Imagine your door has electricity or you change batteries every day. No thanks, a small jumper is the best solution at the moment. I've been using it for 3 months now and couldn't be happier. Batteries not changed yet. I would definitely buy again. Not that the key supplied is a Kwikset (KW1) and can easily be replaced by your local locksmith.
