Kwikset Halo Wi-Fi Smart Lock, Keyless Entry Door Deadbolt, Geofence Auto-Unlock, Grade AAA Certified, No Hub Required Easy Install, Satin Nickel Lifetime Finish Warranty, Backlit Keypad

Awesome product and great valve from an American Company 👍
Compared with my other August lock with optional Key Pad and Wi-Fi bridge that I’ve installed 3 years ago, right off the back, the Kwikset Halo Wi-Fi smart locks performs way much better and offers much attractive price in a One-Piece solution.1. Compared to the August retrofit of existing deadbolt, the Kwikset replaces the old Deadbolt and works better than August, which at times will get “hang-up” on the keeper and unable to lock. The Halo works seamlessly and works every time.2. On the Halo, Wi-Fi and Numeric pad is fully integrated into the lock hardware and works great. On the August, the optional Numeric pad sucks so much battery that it needs to be replacement very often. The August Wi-Fi bridge ad-on is just a pain in the rear, when Spectrum Internet goes down, the bridge will looses connection and have a hell of a hard time trying to get it connect. The Wi-Fi setup on the Halo is a breeze.3. The Halo apps display the battery status on the APP, while August lock don’t show battery status and email you when battery is about to die. Go figure.4. I was able to install the Halo fairly quickly reading the manuals briefly without watch install video on the APP, unlike the August, I’ve to call support during Wi-Fi bridge installation due to sloppy BlueTooth software stack implementation, the Bluetooth was not compatible with my Motorola Android phone, have to uses a older Android phone. The Wi-Fi setup on the Halo was like a walk in the park.5. Did not have a need to call customer service, unlike August, have to call their overseas based customer support that I’ve a tough time understanding due to the accent of the customer service rep.6. Overall, the Kwikset apps is easy to use and have all the functions that I needed and works great. I would be replacing the August and other manual locks soon.7. Great product, at a great price. Highly recommended.

Not reliable, eats batteries, disconnects from wifi, buy a Schlage Encode instead
I bought this for a vacation cottage I rent out, for $199 in 2022. I’ve had nothing but issues with this thing, even getting a replacement a year in. The replacement has the same issues and bugs. It goes through batteries like crazy, even with the firmware updates. And good luck getting it to update automatically. I had to call and get customer service to update it. It randomly drops codes. I had a cleaner using the same code since I set this up, a few months ago it deleted all the admin codes and cleaners codes and we had to reset it. But try and put those old codes back in that we have been using for the last couple years, nope says they already exist but when you input them it doesn’t unlock or lock the door. It won’t let me delete certain codes and then says I need to connect to Bluetooth to see what codes are in the lock. I do that and shows no codes! But guest codes I input still work…even though they don’t exist in the app. We go through a set of four double A batteries at least once every couple of months even with little to no use on the lock. It will randomly disconnect from my Wi-Fi making it impossible to add new codes for guests. I have to physically drive to the cottage to take the batteries out and put them back in or ask my cleaner to so it can reset itself and reconnect to WiFi. It’s been nothing but trouble and problems since we’ve had it. I should have taken the advice from other negative reviews. This lock is worthless and causes more stress when it’s supposed to be helpful. I have a Schlage Encode on my other rental space and it’s never given me any of these problems. It’s completely reliable and automatically updates it’s own firmware. Spend the extra money and get a Schlage Encode you’ll be glad you did. I plan on replacing this one with Schlage Encode as well. I’m tired of this Kwikset pain in the butt.

I did a lot of homework on purchasing this wifi deadbolt and went with the keypad over the touchpad. I was hesitant as quite a few reviews indicated poor wifi connection and long updates and some other issues. My experience being quite handy and installing for an existing keyed deadbolt is that it was simple, user friendly instructions to install, installed quite easy and straight forward and had absolutely no issue to connect direct by bluetooth to set up wifi connection and the perfectly smooth to hook to wifi and get the firmware update in a reasonable amount of time.My eyes will be on battery consumption as we go forward but if i have to change batteries every month so be it, not a big deal compared to the function of the unit itself and its app that shows every entry and easy to monitor and program for up to 250 diff user codes. Also has the ability to set up a timer for a one-time-use code which is handy if a contractor needs to come and i cannot be around to meet etc. I liked that feature that i was unaware it even had!So, in conclusion at this time of having it installed and operating for just ONE week so far, its a great unit!!
