Easy to install and user friendly app. The only bad thing is up have to buy the connect separately for remote access.

Size is good, significantly smaller then previous generations, I didn’t like that you must purchase separate keypad to get more out of the lock. I returned it and opted for a Yale lock instead,

Has a lot of nice features and I like the idea that you don’t have to change your current key you have. It also does to make it appear you have a smart lock hooked up. Lots of nice features that you can utilize to make life easier.

I loved my previous gen August lock, but this newest version takes odd batteries that die way too fast, and it needs recalibrated once a week.

Great Smart Lock, replaced a August Gen 2 with it and its a nice upgrade.
Works with Homekit and allows you to use the stock bolt and key which can be important if you are renting.
Seems to have a lot more torque then the Gen 2.

I haven’t had this device installed for more than four months and I’ve already been told by the app to replace batteries TWICE. There’s nothing wrong with the installation or the Wi-Fi, or the batteries, i’ve even limited remote locking to save battery after first replacement, and they still last only about a month and a half. Don’t waste your money on this worthless trinket. Avoid the sales hype and do your research first. Consider locks with the steadier energy source.
