Head below for our video walkthrough with August’s Smart Lock Pro and the recently released native Apple Watch app and HomePod support now available for the HomeKit-enabled lock.
Hands-on w/ August Smart Lock Pro
August Smart Lock Pro has quickly become one of the most popular HomeKit smart locks on the market, but recently it gained even more functionality for Apple users with a new native Apple Watch app as well as HomePod support a couple months back.
As you’ll see in the video above, on average the August Smart Lock takes less than 10 minutes for installation and it utilizes your locks current deadbolt and handles to blend it with your current setup and design aesthetics.
With both the new native Apple Watch app and the recently introduced support for Apple’s new HomePod, you can now use both devices to unlock and check lock status of your door without having to reach for your iPhone or even have it nearby. This is especially handy for the many users that might take their Watch for a walk or run outside without bringing their iPhone.
The native Apple Watch app is also accessible by anyone who is set up as a house owner in your August account, so your family members and others can also have access without their phone or keys. The HomePod support will be especially useful for hands-free support around the house as well as for those that use Scenes often. For example, including it in a goodnight scene to lock the doors via HomePod.
Also included in our exclusive discount is the August Smart Keypad, a physical keypad that you can optionally have outside of your door for keyless entry even without your smartphone or Apple Watch. It is wireless and runs off two AA batteries, and is therefore easy to mount to an exterior wall without any wiring required, making installation a matter of minutes.
