August Smart Deadbolt with Wi-Fi is the smart lock that looks dumb from freeamfva's blog
If you fancy the accessibility of a great smart lock, but prefer the look and feel of a traditional Yale deadbolt, it’s now possible to have both, all in one package.To get more news about wifi Fingerprint Smart Door lock, you can visit securamsys.com official website.
August – a sister company to traditional locksmiths Yale (both owned by parent company Assa Abloy) – has launched a smart lock that gives you a classic Yale lock on the outside, and an August Smart Lock on the inside.The set comes with two physical keys plus an August Connect Wi-Fi Bridge which allows you to control the lock remotely, granting guests access and sharing virtual keys with visitors.
You can also set up an auto-unlock which detects when you’re approaching the door and opens it for you – ideal if your hands are full.If you’re an anxious sort who (like many of us) worries about whether they shut the door as soon as they’ve driven away, it’s also easy to check on the app and see if the door is currently open or closed.
Wyze is back with another wallet-friendly device: the Wyze Lock Bolt has gone live and costs just $69.99 (well, $79.99 once you've paid the shipping).
"Why so cheap?" I hear you cry. And your cries are warranted, given that the August WiFi Smart Lock costs $250 and the new Apple Home Key friendly Schlage Encode Plus Smart WiFi Deadbolt is $300.
Well, it's because Wyze's new smart door lock isn't all that smart. There's no Wi-Fi, no cellular, heck there isn't even any Zigbee or Z-Wave going on.
It's smartness comes from being able to connect via Bluetooth with the Wyze app on your smartphone (iOS or Android).It, therefore, requires you to be within Bluetooth range of the lock to operate it using the app and that lack of internet connectivity means no remote access for guests.
However, that doesn't mean that your friends and family will be locked out should you not be home, you can create one-time passwords in the app to share for temporary access and, for regular callers, you can also store up to 20 permanent access codes and up to 50 fingerprints.My take is that the easiest features of a smart lock are all present and correct - local app access, codes, fingerprints - it's just a shame you won't be able to add lock/unlock states into smart home routines and automations.
The Wyze Lock Bolt is battery powered (4 x AA) and the budget smart home specialist says it's good for 12 months between changes. There's emergency USB-C power on board should you accidentally let the juice run dry.
Fingerprint recognition is stated at just 0.5 seconds and Wyze says it takes just 20 minutes to install and replace your existing deadbolt.
