The lock is manufactured by yale and august which i have never heard of until now supplies the wifi integration components
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
That consists of a wifi module that plugs into the innards of the lock and a wifi receiver that plugs into your wall socket

I have to give a shout out to the excellent support that i needed to lean on when the lock would not report an accurate openclose status of the deadbolt to the app
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I called august support and they eventually pulled in yale support
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The problem was that the deadbolt was longer than the deadbolt it replaced and i had to drill out the receiving recess a bit more

A small but powerful magnet is mounted to the door frame and when the lock is close enough to detect it the status is closed
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I chose not to install that because i didn’t have the 58” spade bit needed to flush mount the magnet and i have heard reports of premature battery depletion so i didn’t feel that another battery draining feature was worth it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I may change my mind later but we have never had an issue with leaving the door opened
