Update: Dec. 2019 -- still works perfectly, to be honest I love this thing and will get for my front door.Wow, it's very nice. Frankly, I'm amazed that I was able to install it and set it up without any issues. This zigbee version works great with my Echo Plus. I'm no good at handyman-type stuff, but I managed just fine and everything is exactly as described.I use it for the entry between my garage and the side of my kitchen. The keypad is responsive, it paired quickly in the Alexa app with my Echo Plus (nothing else needed), and the instructions were good enough. I never installed any additional apps, I just used the Alexa app. I did look on Youtube to watch a few people install theirs. You can lock the door using voice, routines, or the Alexa app. I'm very impressed.I was concerned when shopping because multiple different shopping tools I use warned me of fake reviews for this product. Fakespot gives this product an F: "Our engine has profiled the reviewer patterns and has determined that there is high deception involved." There is a lot of evidence that suggests most of the reviews here are fake. But I took a Prime Day chance, and I have to say, this works really great. Now, the only question that remains is, how long will it last?

I really like this lock. To start, I will say that I bought this lock with my own money and have not been asked by anyone to write this review. I was a fairly early adopter of smart locks having preordered the first generation Kevo when it was announced. I’ve had the original Kevo and then the Kevo second gen when it came out. I was convinced Kevo was the best option out there for now despite it being somewhat unreliable. When it came time to put a lock on my garage, I was about to put another Kevo on that door as well but decided to give the Yale Assure a try. I put the old Kevo on my garage and the new Assure on my home’s front door to see if it would give us a better experience than we had with the Kevo. Although it is not as mindless to operate as touching the lock with your finger to lock or unlock it like you do with the Kevo, the Assure ended up being far better in my opinion. Locking is just as easy as the Kevo since you simply touch the keypad with the back of a few fingers and it locks. Unlike the Kevo, the Assure locks immediately and 100% of the time with a single touch whereas the Kevo was maybe 80% on the first touch and took a few seconds to process the request. The Kevo became frustrating when you’d touch it, wait a few seconds, and find that it didn’t respond so you had to try again. As far as unlocking, the Kevo again was very simple as it only takes a touch of the lock with a finger, hand, elbow, or whatever is available when you’re carrying bags of groceries into the house but again, it was only about 80% on the first try and the rest of the time took an extra tap and another 2-3 seconds to respond and unlock. The Assure on the other hand can be unlocked by typing in the user set passcode, asking Siri to unlock it, or quickly getting to HomeKit through the iPhone control center and tapping unlock. Since I keep my phone in a cell phone holder on my car’s dash when driving, I find it very easy to tap unlock or ask Siri to unlock the front door as I’m pulling up to my house and then it’s already unlocked by the time I get to the door. Unlike with the Kevo, I no longer have to stand at my door tapping it the lock once, twice, or even three times to get it to open sometimes. I, by the way, am not trying to put down Kevo, I owned one for several years and still feel that it is one of the best options currently available, just not the best for me any longer. And for those familiar with Kevo, yes, I have done calibrations, installed software updates, kept my phone (or the fob) in a consistent location in my front pocket, uninstalled and reinstalled the software/app and lock within the app, etc... to troubleshoot. My wife actually just gave up on it at times in favor of using her key. For anyone that wants a physical key for grandma, they Kevo is a good option. Another situation where Kevo would win over the Assure is in the case where you only have one door; the Assure doesn’t have a key hoe so if the battery dies, you have to run to the store to buy a 9V battery to touch to the bottom of it to get inside. If your Assure is your only door lock and the electronics in it fail, you’d have no way to get inside other than breaking a window. If you have HomeKit and have a second door to your house with a physical key lock as a backup, the Assure is a really good option. I still have the Kevo and just put it on my garage which I don’t access as often as my front door but after using the Assure for a few months now, I’m considering putting an Assure on the garage as well and just using the Kevo for another side door. I suppose I should mention August briefly as well. I almost bought an August instead of the Assure when I was looking for something to replace my Kevo but when I saw the physical size of it in person at a local electronics store, not just looking at photos online, I was turned off by the enormity of it. August seems like a cool lock with great options and functionality but I just couldn’t bring myself to put something that size on my front door. If August wants to send me one, I’d put it on my door and give it a try I suppose but for now, the Assure is the lock for me; I have zero complaints about it to date and couldn’t ask for more. Hard to believe as I can most often list out several pros and cons to just about any device.

Perfect, sleek Apple HomeKit compatible KEYLESS Lock! There is NO Keyhole to bump or pick! Once set up, you DON'T need your phone or a fob on you to Lock/Unlock the door which is what a lot of the others require.Installation: Easy to install in an existing standard deadbolt door hole. Remove old deadbolt, install new stuff, per instructions. I personally didn't have to change anything. Comes with three different depth depth screws for attaching the exterior touch keypad to the interior locking/network mechanism to accommodate most all door thicknesses. I used the medium(black) ones in my set up.Set up:Pretty easy, just follow Yale Secure app instructions (download and login first), Need to Set Up Master Code first, I believe.Two minor issue during set up, not enough to lose a star:1) Instructions are little confusing on the initial "Master Code" Setup part due to the way the instructions are written (maybe the video from the BILT website/app is more clear?), but once that was over it was pretty straight forward. Hint: after covering the key pad with your hand, press the "Gear Icon" before trying to enter your Master Code. The audio makes it seem like you enter it immediately, but you need to hit the gear icon first. Then it will prompt you the rest of the way. To set up User codes -> Use the app, much easier! ("Yale Secure" is the correct one, I know there are others out there even if you have other Yale smart locks you need to use the Yale Secure App, I believe) 2) Not super clear that you need to touch the keypad with 2 or more fingers or back of hand to activate it before entering Key code or that covering the keypad with you hand (after all set up is done) will lock it AKA the "One-Touch Lock". Some of the advanced setting functions are not explained very well in the app, but are in the documentation if you dig a bit. HomeKit integration with the iM1 module version is flawless, follow the instructions on setup in the Yale Secure app and it'll show up in Apple "Home" in HomeKit under "Default Room" and you can go from there adding it to scenes all that jazz.Improvements that would be nice, but not showstoppers:Show what keycode was used to unlock the door in the notification, instead of generic "Front Door Unlocked" message. However,this may just be a HomeKit limitation and an easy software update (Get on it, Yale & Apple!).Overall: Great smart lock with HomeKit integration that doesn't have a keyhole or require a fob or phone to unlock. Slim and sleek keypad design looks great even on our craftsman bungalow door, doesn't take away or try to be too 'Edgy'. Works great day to day once you get over the few set up issues that an be cleared up with better documentation. Leave the keys and phone at home and go for a distraction free bike ride or walk!

Great for what i wanted - has bolt and is home kit compatible
