They also appreciate the keyless entry, eliminating the need for physical keys. The auto-lock feature provides peace of mind by automatically securing the door after a set time. However, some customers have encountered challenges during installation due to insufficient information in the manual. Additionally, connectivity issues with the Wi-Fi hub have been reported, requiring frequent resets.

I'm so glad we purchased this. With teenagers in the house who always are forgetting their keys or to lock the house...there are no worries either way with this. They each have their codes and the deadbolt automatically locks itself back! And the app lets you know when someone goes in and out.

Hub never works

The lock works great. Seems very solid. Replaced another push button lock and am satisfied with that portion of the package. The problem comes with "hub". The wifi hub that connects the door lock to the app never works for more than a couple of hours before needing to be reset again. Once you reset, you can control the door from your phone. However, don't get used to it because it will stop working very soon. Have been very disappointed with this function. Not being able to use the wifi function makes this product over-priced as a standard push button dead bolt.

Easy to set up and install. Pro tip: connect the lock to your Wifi before you install it because the signal may be weaker at your door. I love that it tells me when the door is locked and unlocked because it is on a door shared with our upstairs neighbors. Not sure about battery life yet, but already better than my last battery powered keypad lock.

Opened box from delivery today. Overall quality appears good. Instructions were lacking but BB website has videos that will help with install and programming. Overall installation looks pretty straightforward. I will install tomorrow and will update review in a few weeks after using lock and IOS app. Docked 1 star for poor instructions.

I was able to install the product. Normally I would have had someone install the lock. I like the keypad and not having to use a key.

More Trouble Than I Feel It Should Be!!

Installation of this product required some work with a drill because it didn't just fit in where the old locks had been, and for a while, the latch wouldn't turn, but that wasn't a major issue.
Beyond that, if you're going to use it just as a keypad entry lock, then it's fine, but for the money, you can get that type of lock for much less than this product costs, so personally, had I known at the time of purchase what I know now, I'd never have purchased this product because connecting the "smart" features, and keeping them connected, has been nothing but trouble from the start.
Initially, we couldn't even get the lock to connect to its own little hub and app. That took hours of frustration, trying to interpret instructions that either weren't there at all or were in very poor English. Once we did get an initial connection, it wouldn't stay connected. And that's where we stand now. Some days it'll work; some days it won't. It doesn't work reliably enough with Amazon Alexa (which is advertised on the box) that we can go somewhere & know that the connection will work if we attempt to access it remotely, which was the whole point of the purchase for me in the first place.
So honestly, no, I would never recommend this product to anyone for "smart home" use. It's not worth the hassle. And it cost way too much money to just be a simple keypad lock, which is really all it is for us at this point. So I'd suggest sticking with the well-known names in locks and avoiding this brand!!

Internal mechanisms of the lock failed within 12 months and it would not lock properly as a result. Also, this was the only device I could not connect to a new router I had setup, despite trying every possible (uninstalling and reinstalling, and hard reset on the device). Went from a "smart" lock, to a lock with no app functionality, to a "dumb" lock that couldn't even physically lock the door anymore.
Get a Yale or Schlage right off the bat and save yourself the time and money associated with this one.

I live in a condo. My main entrance is on the ground floor and my living space is the 2nd and 3rd levels. This lock makes life much easier because I can lock or unlock my door from anywhere with my smart phone.

My roommate leaves the front door open all the time and this is perfect for that. I also can give access to visitors as necessary using the pin code. The sensor for the door opening was difficult to use since it has to be exactly aligned and stays on door with Velcro.

This is a great lock. The only thing I don't like about this type of lock is you only have one lock to secure your door. I like two locks and it is pointless to install a key lock with this Bluetooth lock.
