Great product.
This product is awesome. It’s so easy to install and I was done in about 10 minutes. I love the app and being able to lock or unlock your front door from anywhere. The app also allows you to make different codes for other family members like your children. It’s nice being able to see when they access the front door after they get home from school. I would definitely recommend.

For Apple HomeKit experience, a good addition.
Review of Yale Assure Lock 2 The Yale Assure Lock 2, a Smart Lock Keyless Wi-FI Deadbolt with Apple Home Keys and Touchscreen Keypad Access includes features that makes easy to install and uniquely compatible to Apple HomeKit. Its size compared to other models, looks compact as its design is simplistic and compact framework. At least visually makes appealing appearance. But on hand, it is heavy (4 lbs), feels sturdy and secure as impression. To install (hardware side), 1. IF need to make new hole, the manual includes measurements and guidance on how to measure 2. IF existing door and has standard hole, it can skip the “1” above, and start immediately installing. It fits to existing door lock deadbolt as it is removed and replace. Afterward of either options, the process is straight forward. The only step where I struggled a bit was first finding the right screw that match the door thickness as the door lock includes three type of screws, and secondly connecting the cable between both parts, the exterior touchscreen keypad and the interior lock as it was bit challenging to identify which side match each other connectors. To setup (software side) First, I started by adding to the Apple Home Kit without downloading the Yale App, and without doing the Bluetooth connection to the phone. By scanning the code for HomeKit directly, it was added to HomeKit. And this process took me a bit of challenge as the code is inside the Interior Lock in vertical and the phone was not recognizing it at first attempt. However, to continue, it requires the Yale App and add the lock via Bluetooth, then all the corresponding setting has to be done from the Yale App. After this, at high-level, everything else are almost similar as adding any device to the phone, needing to change settings and personalize for security. The experience via HomeKit Using the default setting as is out of box, and having setup to integrate with HomeKit, it can control to open and lock without issues. The HomeKit add a wallet card, and with it, as approaching the phone to the door touchscreen lock, it immediate recognize and unlock/lock. It is like using Apple Pay. From the Home app, it has toggle button as move up/down lock/unlock. On the other hand, while watching Apple TV and anyone lock/unlock the door, a message pop on the tv screen about the status. Similarly, while I am away and kids at home open the lock/unlock the door, its status shows up on the phone screen, if not on iPad screen. Hence it works seamlessly across multiple apple devices. The result is same as the home key is shared to second user by adding via invite or as homeowner, and of course it is another apple device user. The experience of personalizing To personalize, for this it has to be done via Yale application. It allows to set alike Auto Lock, Auto Unlock, Door Ajar Timing, Door Sense, Smart Alert to mention some of their features. The Auto Lock/Unlock I find it most practical need to use in such case that when I come home automatically sense the device and unlock. What it does or made well At first attempt it does well: - Connect to iPhone via Bluetooth. - Adjustable deadbolt is long at least as it is for the door where has been installed. I don’t know the standard, but I think it is a good thing. - Noise while locking and unlocking is smoother sound compared to another model from different brand I have. -Interior Lock turning nob turns smoothly - The Yale Smart Module is a separate piece such can be added or removed. This allow the Wi-Fi connection and I think it is good to have the hardware option to connect or not to Wi-Fi due to the remote hacking concern. And removing it, it doesn’t allow to control remotely while being away from home. - Some of features are only available to change only by being next to the lock and cannot be modified remotely or being away. This add to the security aspect of the lock, I think. What I wish it would do better: 1 - Wire connector, it is hard to identify and match both sides. And it is hard to remove once it is connected. It takes a bit of hassle to disconnect. 2. - As Locking/Unlocking, it does the sound as if it is rotating twice. Feels like if it is locked, to unlock, lock and unlock again or internal motor turning full circle. This potentially is not efficient for battery’s duration. 3- Locking/Unlocking from the phone, it is not instant, there is latency from the moment initiate the action to actually lock/unlock, and I think it is more than reasonable time. Of course, there is several factors in between, but under same Wi-Fi Network with same phone, the process with other brand doesn’t feel that latency. This observation is from using it at front of the door lock. 4- Auto Lock/Unlock, it doesn’t recognize when the user is inside/exterior home. For instance, if I want the feature get activated when I am arriving home, from external side, and only work in this use case, I can’t. Or if there is a way of setting such way, I couldn’t find it, or it is not a simple settings process if there is such setting. 5- It requires to install Yale application. It is not included in the HomeKit once it is integrated or added to it. The become another app on the phone. The package reviewed here included: 1. Door Sense, 2. Smart Module, 3. Battery Cover, 4. Mounting Plate 5. Exterior Touchscreen Keypad 6. Interior Lock 7. 4 Batteries 8. Adjustable Deadbolt 9. Strike Plate 10. Screws, Reset Pin, and other needed accessories for installation. To finish, the Yale Assure 2 is for HomeKit is not very different to other models. Only difference and how it changes the experience is mostly the device added to Apple ecosystem and its user experience. The installation process is same as other platform, in the same setting the software side. But it is good and possibly save deadlock if need specific for Apple experience and doesn't want or convert or integrate through separate application.
