Pros & Cons

Pros

August app is great and dead simple. No issues with connectivity at all. If you're looking to get away from bridges & hubs and go directly to wifi, this is a great upgrade.

Definitely worth the switch and a no brainer if your lock is currently not connected. My only small gripe is the bridge—it's just another extraneous piece of hardware. Lock is very very durable.

The august app makes you configure in the app push notifications of the door being manually locked, unlocked, and if a user enters their code. Great for when your away but need to give family access to your home without a bunch of copies to a key out ... Read More

Cons

This is categorically false. There is zero effort from yale to address the problem or offer support.

The connect disconnects from my deco m5 mesh router system roughly three times each day and then reconnects later. They refer to this as a wifi solution, and claim all over that the bridge is required for homekit.

The radio in this unit is no good. It's not clear whether the problems are in the lock, the dongle connection to the wifi, or the glitchy app. Bluetooth range is very poor. Turn off seamless roaming between devices for a device which i tried.

Packaging/appearance

My only small gripe is the bridge—it's just another extraneous piece of hardware that should ideally be built into the module/lock.

Competitiveness

I had tons of issues/glitches with my z-wave module, and while it integrated into my ring app and security system, it was just ... Read More

Almost just bought a whole new lock that would’ve cost 250+!
