Great Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Prior to the Yale we had a kwikset Wifi lock and had a ton of issues. The Yale was a little difficult to set up at first due to an error in the instructions, however once set up it was amazing!

I would recommend this to a friend Good, not great. Hard to install, loses network.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The lock itself is great. The ability to unlock the door from the Nest app on my phone is excellent. The areas where this device fails are twofold. 1) Installation was much more difficult than I anticipated. Took several hours. Granted, I had to drill a larger hole in my door to accommodate the deadbolt since my previous deadbolt was smaller, but the entire installation lasted about 6 hours. This time was due to unexpected difficulty, trips to the hardware store and cleanup of sawdust. Once installed, the lock sits slightly crooked. 2) Network Connectivity is unstable. The lock connects to your wifi through the separate Nest Connect bridge device. This device lost wifi connectivity twice in the first week. After much research, I found this has issues with mesh networks, even Google Wifi (Nest is owned by Google.) I finally moved the Nest Connect to the guest network, all by itself to resolve the issue. Side note, if you ever have to perform a reset of the lock, you have to unscrew the panel and remove the 4 batteries to access the reset button. What a pain. All in all, when it works, it works well but double check your existing deadbolt size, triple the amount of time you plan on installing and expect network issues. I sincerely hope the second generation of this lock fixes the issues. This device is not in the same user experience league as the Nest Thermostat and Google Wifi.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Connectivity

Posted .Hi there, Bhack3tt. We're glad that you're loving the Nest x Yale Lock. It's unfortunate to hear that you're experiencing connectivity issues when using the Nest app on your mobile phone.
You may want to try out some helpful steps below:
- Disable the cellular/mobile data for your mobile device where the Nest app or Home app is installed. If you’re using your cellphone to check, make sure it’s connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your lock. To help make sure cellular data is off, turn on Airplane mode and then turn on Wi-Fi.
- Check the OS version of your mobile phone device. We recommend the following versions for the best experience when using the Nest app or Home app:
Android phone or tablet with Android 8.0 or later, and iPhone or iPad with iOS 14.0 or later versions.
- Try updating the Nest app or Home app.
- Try installing the Nest app or Home app, using the same account, on another mobile phone or tablet device, and see if you will experience the same issue.
- If you don't experience the same issue with another device, we recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the Nest app or Home app on the main mobile phone device.
If the issue persists, please feel free to speak to our support specialists for further assistance using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
