Customers often highlight the ease of use and straightforward installation of the Kevo smart lock. Positive feedback also mentions the security features and the convenience of remote access, although some users note that the lock's reliability can be inconsistent and that battery life may be an issue. Concerns were also raised regarding the Bluetooth connectivity and the unlock speed. The price point was also mentioned as a potential drawback by some customers.
Okay, I read the reviews and bought the lock. Once home, I read the directions and downloaded the Kevo app onto my phone. Once installed, the app said it is not compatible with my phone. Looking harder into why the app won't work, I discover that the app only works with older phones. I have a Note 8, and the newest phone the app works with is a Note 4. Then ... I see in the reviews that a fair amount of people are finding the internal moving parts are plastic (like the gears) and have a short service life. I never even took the lock out of the box, and returned it the next day.

I bought the Kēvo to help me from having to fumble around for my keys every time I try to get in my house. It’s also great for when you have your hands full of groceries. All you need to do is tap the deadbolt and it unlocks. Very convenient. Will purchase more for my other doors.

It’s amazing and I love that when I’m not home I can secure my office from my toddler getting into stuff
