Bricked after about one month
Got a solid pink light and unusable device after the first battery install, about one month into using this lock. August support confirms there's nothing I can do to fix it and wants to replace this device and is refusing a requested refund. I do not feel safe using a security device that gets bricked after one month of use. If you google this issue, you will see I'm...

Works well!
We’ve had our system for 3 years now, and we love it. We feel secure, it’s easy to use, and very reliable.

Great product!
It’s been great having the August Wi-fi Smart Lock. When we have family visits us, or stay with us while they’ll be in this area for other purposes, they download the app and we can choose how many days to grant them access to the lock. This makes it great when they want to come and leave as they wish!

It has everything I wanted
I’ve had this lock for several years and never had a problem, there is nothing to see on the outside except the original deadbolt. It unlocks when I approach the door and automatically locks at the time I set it to.
It does come with a small keypad that can be mounted outside out of site if desired.

Convenient
For the most part this lock works well. Occasionally it does not communicate and needs a reboot. I wish the batteries would last longer.

Everything is great. Except for keypad
I’ve been using this product over other ones, and it works beautifully. The only flaw is when connecting the keypad, it takes forever to unlock and is not instant. Other than that, it’s a great product.

August smart door locks have enabled me
I don’t have the ability to get myself out of bed and into my wheelchair so if someone rings the doorbell, I can now unlock the door for them from my bed.

A welcoming friend
It’s so nice to pull into my driveway and know the door will be unlocked for me! I get the Welcome Home notification on my phone, too! My husband gets a bit annoyed that he has to change the batteries every two months but I love it enough to listen to the tiny grumble LOL

This whole system is the best
If you don’t have one of these, you need to invest… It never fails… Unlocks right when you walk up to it… It’s so easy to send people a keypad code if they need to get in your house. Tells you who’s bc coming and going! If your hands are full of groceries, you don’t have to worry about getting your keys out and unlocking the door. Plus it locks automatically if you set ...

Works great, easy to install and use!
I have been using several months now and am very happy with it. I do recommend getting rechargeable batteries so that it’s easy to swap out when needed.

I love this tool
It saved me: I got it when I had knee surgery. I have 17 stairs.
This tool makes it easy. I can open my door without going down!!!!
It needs 2 special Energizer batteries. The original batteries lasted for 2.5 months. Not too bad!
When my batteries were low the app August reminded me (to replace them). I did. Also the app asked me if I changed the batteries. I...
