I live in South Korea and, here, keys are pretty much a think of the past. It has been 5 years now without carrying a key, and this is wonderful. I don't know why the electronic locks used here are not more popular everywhere. They are amazing.

@tritip1102

Great review and one of the first (that I’ve seen) to honestly talk about the experiences of having to dig out a phone each time you want to unlock the door.

@saadshamshair8907

2y↑7

Very glad you mentioned battery life off the bat, it’s been my experience as well. I actually contacted August support for help, and they sent a free WiFi bridge which has helped extend battery life a bit!

@6MonthsLater

2y↑2

I'm glad the WiFi bridge helped extend it! I've been thinking about getting on as well - Josh

@tae1921

2y↑2

That’s my only knock against the lock is the battery life is terrible and i don’t even get 3 months

@theotherrobzombie

I have the same issues with battery life. Even when I don't even use one of my locks. The other issue I have is with using Google, it gets my code wrong more often than not. But that's on Google.

@neozizen42

I got this lock because there were concerns about not being able to use the regular old fashioned key. It was an extremely good way to provide some comfort knowing that you could always use your key to get in to the house in the event the lock didn't work. The locks work so well that keys are no longer carried around. I would recommend them to anyone who is hesitant to make the jump to smart home locks and I would give them at least an A rating. Why not A+? So, these locks are the reason I started using Home Assistant. I wanted to have a more reliable and much faster "Auto Unlock" feature. I wanted Auto Unlock to work on more than just one door in the house (August won't support having more than one lock in your house/garage Auto Unlock) because they haven't figured out how to properly sense for your phone. August, if you ever read this... bayesian algorithm, use it! I wanted a button on the home screen of Andriod/Apple phones to quickly unlock door without having to open an App. I wanted better control of Auto Lock feature so that I wouldn't accidently lock myself out of the house by forgetting my phone in the house. The August App is a very good application, I just kept running in to minor things that, when added together, summed up to make me want to try Home Assistant. This was about a month ago and currently I have added temperature sensors and lights to Home Assistant becuase I figured out that Home Assistant can run all your smart home devices and have one application on your phone to control them all. Anyway, nice video. Just wanted to point out some of the things about this lock (which I believe is one of the best, if not the best lock out there) I found myself wanting more from it.

@galaxystarrr

2y↑7

It’s crazy I saw your video today, I just removed my august 4th gen yesterday because I was absolutely sick of buying batteries for it every month or so! Reinstalled my old 3rd gen pro! But I have been told if you use a wifi bridge with the 4th gen it might help its battery life a little bit! Great video

@walex19

2y↑1

Yeah was gonna say. The august connect extends battery life anywhere from 3-6 months.

@VideoWorld99

yep, me too. Its a bad buy. I feel like I need to carry batteries in my pocket because I never know when the battery life is dead. I replace the batteries 3 or X per year!

@grimtastabod

2y↑17

IMO the best all-around smart lock is the EUFY that lets you enter via keypad, app, physical key, voice assistant, or fingerprint (what I use daily). It absolutely rocks; best smart home purchase I've ever made. Of course the downside is that you need to completely replace your deadbolt, and as Josh mentioned, landlords won't like that their master key won't work any more. If I was still renting, an August lock like this would definitely be the way I'd go. Nice review Josh!

@RanjithSethu_findmehere

How secure is finger print

@grimtastabod

2y↑2

@Ranjith Sethu I don't have a real metric to judge fingerprint security, but it seems good to me. It can be picky about how you place your finger, which to me means it is more secure in how it analyzes it.

@XXSPAZKILLXX hi am thinking get the eufy lock but on amazon there are a lot of people talking about the battery is not good only holds about 3 weeks and u have charge it for 6 hour and there are no back up battery

I have had the previous generation with the bridge on my home since August 2018 and have only changed the AA batteries once when it sent an alert to tell me to do it. I would say if you were a home owner who enters mostly through the garage and instal this on your front door you would be amazed. Setting up temporary codes for maintenance people that allows them access etc is also a great feature.

@tony-zhu

2y↑11

Thanks for your review and it is very close to my experience.
About the NFC unlock feature, actually you can integrate August lock with Home Assistant and setup a NFC key in HA. That is the way how I unlock my door and it is very fast and stable. I never carry any physical keys anymore.

@TheDirtyPhil

2y↑1

Could you explain a little further? I’ve a smart lock as well and has always thought of using NFC. How is the method of setting up a NFC key in HA and how do you use it?
:)

@tony-zhu

2y↑3

@Philip Neuman You can use your phone as a scanner and when it scans a NFC tag (already registered in HA), it will trigger an event in HA.
Then you just need to setup an automation in HA. The automation is triggered by the NFC event, and when it is triggered, it will unlock the August.

@neancortez

I was about to write this haha I love Home Assistant

@wolphiekun

@Tony Zhu so the NFC is a tag you put somewhere on the door, you scan it, phone goes into browser and triggers a URL which triggers HA?

@tony-zhu

@fintechphil HA in Android can directly scan the tag and trigger some scripts you wrote

@adamdekleine

Another great review with some solid advice. Good things to hear!

@cd9954

Interesting to read about different struggles with this lock. I have the 3rd gen w/ the bridge. My battery life is fantastic. My auto-unlock works every single time but I did buy a keypad to use for those times that I don't have my phone with me (running). The keypad provides excellent flexibility for friends & family to use when they stop by. I think it is certainly key to not only have the bridge, but to have the bridge close to the august lock.

@jacielespinosa-severo7134

I've had the August Smart Lock the previous generation for about 2 years, and it has completely replaced my keys. I think I've used my keys a total of five times since I've installed it. The features I really love are auto lock because after 10 minutes just locks itself. My family usually opens the August app 5 to 10 minutes before they arrive home. We honestly love it. However I have to mention some bugs. The geofencing is terrible, similar to you it's literally faster for me just to open The August app then waiting for my phone to GPS or Bluetooth to kick in and activate the feature. Also it does require me to be a little proactive of when I'm approaching my house, sometimes I do get frustrated when I'm at my door and I'm just so conditioned to use the August app that I forget I have keys but it'd be faster if I use the keys then using the August app. But other than that I still love the August Smart Lock

@kathybellamy5207

1y↑3

Battery life can be affected if your lock experiences any resistance when locking and unlocking as well. Everything must line up perfectly so the lock moves smoothly. One thing I can’t find is a notification if the door is left unlocked, or the ability to auto lock at a certain time. This would ensure that the door is not accidentally left unlocked. The auto-lock feature only allows for a specific amount of time, not a time on the clock, ie 8pm.

@HowTheTechYT

Loving the new setup!

@6MonthsLater

Thanks! Glad you like it.

@taranagnew436

what does wifi do in the lock and what gen do you recommend to get for batterylife?

@JPGcreatives

2y↑1

I only see the smart lock pro + WiFi bridge for 229$? Did they just start adding the WiFi bridge now? I also don’t see the 3rd Gen

@hayleyharrison5127

2y↑3

Apple Watch app has been the easiest for me, normally like 2-3 seconds to unlock. You really need it set as a complication for it to be speedy.

@Pills161

1y↑2

The battery issue was my original deal breaker but I ended up just buying a rechargable 4pack off amz. Swapping them potentially more often isn't an issue it was the long term cost of batteries and throwing more into the garbage because I'm a hippy tree hugger. So far so good the rechargables work fine in the lock.

@victuringan1429

Do you have the link of the rechargeable battery?

@gamingsectre1534

@usafa1296

I have a Yale keypad lock. Could I still use this on the inside portion?

@alexnelson6196

2y↑1

Seems like having a low voltage sensor connection at the latch that doubles as a charger for a built-in battery/capacitor when closed would solve the battery life issue. Plus the owner wouldn’t have to constantly buy batteries.

@kamrinkea3183

Can you do a 6 months later review on the google pixel buds a series?

@JakeDiToro

I have a 3rd gen and live in a traditional suburban single family home. The Auto-Unlock works well about 95% of the time. Enough so that I don't cary my key in my pocket because it's convient enough to just pull out my phone to unlock when the auto-unlock doesn't work. Though I do keep a key in my wallet, but that's mostly me being paranoid. I haven't needed but once or twice in 3 years or so of having the lock.

@louis.romero

It would be interesting to know how loud these smart locks are as I once had an automatic button pusher that made an unreasonable amount of noise

@6MonthsLater

2y↑2

The little ding the lock makes when it's locked or unlocked is actually louder than the locking mechanism. Overall it's not very loud imo - Josh

@t4lenza

Hi, I have the 3rd gen with the connect hub and was very happy with it until I changed my WiFi. I’m not very tech savvy and have been trying to figure out what went wrong. I think the problems started with just the new router but 3 months later I also got 5g. Now the connect hub is flashing red and when i tried to reset it tells me I don’t have a compatible lock. Also the August guide says the lock doesn’t work remotely with 5g. Does that mean I can never use it remotely again? Thanks

@mattbosley3531

It's unfortunate that you haven't gotten as much use out of your August lock as you had hoped. I have an August lock as well. I got the Pro version which comes with the Connect Hub but doesn't have Wifi built in. I've had mine for over a year now and I'm quite happy with it. So far I haven't needed to replace the batteries yet. I don't even remember how to open it at this point; I'll have to look it up when it is time to replace them. The Auto-Unlock feature works almost every time for me (99%). When it doesn't it's usually an issue with my phone. In order to make certain the door didn't relock before I got to it I just had to raise the delay time for Auto-Lock in the August app to 90:seconds. I hear the tone from my phone when I get to the bottom of the stairs telling me that my front door has unlocked. And 90 seconds so far has always given me enough time to get to the door and open it before it relocks. You can set Auto-Lock as high as 10 minutes or more, or you can turn it off completely if you're having issues with it. I do have the 3rd gen rather than the 4th gen. But I think the Connect Hub makes a difference, especially when it comes to battery life. That's part of the reason I bought that version; read some reviews from existing customers online before purchasing.

@koruspring1519

25w

I use a Hafele smart lock. Best thing I ever bought.

@EsotericArctos

I guess with WiFi built into it compared to the previous one was just Bluetooth and needing the bridge, it would use more battery power.
Might still be worth getting the previous generation and the bridge.

@Bbhhhhj

2y↑1

I have the previous generation and love it. The quickest way for me to unlock my door is asking Siri on my Apple Watch as it doesn’t require authentication.

@brendanhighway1376

Helpful review. Sounds like they are almost there but not quite. Will hold off until next generation perhaps.

@6MonthsLater

Yeah, I'm hoping they'll solve the battery life with the next gen and figure out a way to provide NFC capabilities right out of the box with Andriod and iOS. - Josh

@jwychau

what a great review

@stonegatz7727

the issue with august lock disconnecting from homekit:
i belive is an issue with homekit not the lock, I am a smart home installer and I usually program/set/show a way to reset homekit which usually brings these disconnected devices back online

Hope you have heard of Savant :) they are pricey but amazing tech, dm for questions

@lawrencemayer1212

Josh... Great video...Question: If I understood you correctly August Smart Lock supports multiple locks (individually addressable) in relatively close proximity to one another (e.g. front door, back door & supply closet)?

@6MonthsLater

2y↑1

Correct!

@lawrencemayer1212

@6 Months Later Reviews Thank you... Josh

@chuckhowland5146

Does the app have a battery level indicator or low battery notification? Thanks

@6MonthsLater

Yes to notification for low battery. It doesn't show a battery indicator though. This should be something that eventually comes to more smart locks I'd imagine though. Some platforms like Homey already tout they show this info when other platforms don't. Once we get a Homey Pro to test we'll see if that's the case for the August Lock. Don't forget to subscribe if you'd like to see more content on smart home stuff. - Josh

@dmoua08

Thats strange. I've had my August Smart lock for 2 going on 3 months now and the battery is still at 78%.

I also integrated the lock into Home assistant and unlocking and locking from that app is very quick and efficient compared to the app.

@paulwalker2133

Fantastic balanced and thorough review - I had heard some complaints about Bluetooth before. Is there an iOS widget yet? (that might be a bit quicker than opening the app…)

@6MonthsLater

Thank you and just checked, no widget showing up on iOS. That would be a neat idea from them to add.

@VerGiel

2y↑2

So, there’s no good/worthwhile NFC equipped smart lock on the market? I will be moving (hopefully) somewhere in the next 4-5 months, and I’ve been thinking of getting a smart lock. But if it’s still faster to use your keys in most cases, I might wait an extra few years.

I found setting your auto re-lock over 2 minutes, gives you enough time to get to the door 👍. That's odd all you guys are having battery issues, every 6 months Amazon auto ships me batteries for the lock

@a3plew

What about the doorknob?

@cgreever1

I tried those energizer batteries and the battery life was not great. Gotta stick with the copper tops.

@OscarYaw93

Isnt uwb compatible ?

@simonsmith4213

2y↑1

After 6 months use reliability and battery life are disappointing, initially replacing every 5 weeks but after disabling wifi and installing the connect bridge batteries lasted twice as long. Bridge also improved remote operation which was previously slow and often timed out even though wifi coverage was excellent near the lock (app reporting 46bB).
Auto-unlock was the main reason for purchase but can take up to 3 minutes before triggering, when it works. Manually unlocking/re-locking does not abort an in progress auto-unlock action, consequently after entering the house the door you thought you'd locked is now unlocked. Auto-unlock outcome is also unpredictable if multiple phones (same model) arrive home simultaneously, frequently one device unlocks then minutes later the second device attempts to unlock. August techs confirmed only single device trigger is supported, obviously not realistic in family home.
This could be a good product with further development, but I'm not ready to leave my keys at home.

@johnnnnny

I've had mine for a while and it works great but all of a sudden the lock doesn't turn all the way. I'll reinstall it like you mentioned and cross my fingers it works otherwise I got a useless smart lock :(
Thanks for the video!

You're welcome and hopefully that'll fix it!

@carlabarnett3712

I am a landlord and planning to move out of state, so am looking to changing old school deadbolt locks to the August 4th gen so that I can lock doors once a tenant moves out, QUESTION IS, CAN I CONTROL/LOCK THIS LOCK FROM ANOTHER STATE? THIS BUILDING WAS BUILT IN 1926 SO HAS NO WIFI SO DO I STILL NEED TO GET WIFI IN BUILDING THO THERE IS BUILT WIFI IN LOCK? WILL THIS BE A GOOD LOCK FOR A REMOTE RENTAL OVERALL?

@markgold5408

Change the auto lock to a few minutes, instead of instantly and then you won’t have to worry about it relooking before you get there

@LeesReviews69

I’ll wait for nfc implementation

@mikeyy9073

I’m confused. How do you unlock with regular keys?

@6MonthsLater

This replaces the interior part of a deadbolt door lock, so you can still use your normal key as you always would because the exterior of the door lock doesn’t change.

@Dazdigo

I think it is stupid that they didn't go with a 18650 since those are common and rechargeable.

Be careful if you purchase an August lock second-hand. If the previous owner doesn't relinquish the lock, its useless. Their customer service sucks when it comes to this.

Batteries last 4 months for me. But even 6 months isn't long enough. And you get annoying daily emails that you can't opt out of when batteries start to run low. One time I got emails for 3 months even though it was still working.

@j0nathan_r0gers

I’ve been a very happy #August #SmartLock Pro 1st Gen user over the past 5+ years (8/2016)!

It just “died” recently and I’m debating being faithful to the August brand and purchasing their 4th Gen SmartLock OR the Level lock.

@j0nathan_r0gers

I think the Gen 1 just got tired because every Winter, my apartment building’s metal door frame expands or something. This causes my #SmartLock to constantly lock—unlock—lock—unlock all day until the 4x AA batteries died (had to change them once a month during colder Winter months).

@johnmcdaniel2338

@DrunkenAfro

YALE with iOS geo locking and unlocking is by far the most seamless. No need to use any device. Using it for 2 years, battery life is brilliant and not once has it failed to work.

@duduloi

Coud you be so kind to tell me exactly what device gou have ? (model type)

@shanemcgonnell2689

Why don’t you just turn on auto unlock geofencing and just increase the amount of time before auto lock to give you time to get to the door? Say 10 minutes. Mine is set to 30 in case I’m coming in or out.

@digitalfreedom4706

The only thing worse than the product is the customer service. If you're outside North America I would look at other options. The battery life doesn't live anywhere near up to what's advertised and the customer service is infruating. The internet is littered with complaints and issues about the battery life and the company seems in denial. There answer was to offer to sell me more product at a discount as a potential remedy! Thanks, but no thanks.

@jackwong64

The battery is expensive… I would rather stick with 3rd gen with extra August connect, and my next smart lock would not be August because I am not sure what they are thinking with the special type of battery for the latest generation.

@JMC2727

No mention of Apple's Home Key when talking about NFC? Straight after talking about home kit? That is a huge miss. The reason this is a failed product is because it's using slower older protocols and is not seemingly going to update to include things like Home Key. Or Matter etc.

I didn’t even realize home key was a thing. Def a miss on our part. Thanks for pointing that out! - Josh

Battery eaters are a no go for me.

@fanaticofutube

I'd be more worried if i accidently left my phone and keys inside of my home and got auto locked out..then what?

@poppydillings7448

This guy aside: can anyone advise IF I change the password for the August app, will the person I’ve lent my second phone to continue to be able to use the lock. I don’t want that person in my house. I only lent him the phone.

@Alexpires1986

just buy Eufy Smart Lock instead. Much better than August

@AZTechLabs

so many knockoff batteries on Amazon. UHG hate buying on there. I just go to Costco now for them.

@kdm313

Doesn’t sound like such a great Lock

@ahmed.alnaqbi

NFC is exploitable , it's been flagged for security reasons

The batteries are a show stopper for me. Not only are they non rechargeable but of a strange kind quote difficult to find and at a higher cost. What a bad design decision in their part.

@nicmart

The battery life is ridiculously bad

@6MonthsLater

I ended up buying the Wi-Fi bridge as some others suggested and that does help quite a bit with the battery life. - Josh

@nicmart

@6 Months Later Reviews
The bridge works with this device?

Too expensive... there are much better solutions at a quarter of the price....

@MrMexBiker

August lock 4th gen sucks. The Wi-Fi drains the batttery in 3 weeks. Plus he struggles to hold the Wi-Fi connection. Found the Level Lock much better

@nikehp99

I bought this lock. It’s absolutely terrible. No apple home key and the app is absolutely terrible. It hardly works

@Oracleidol8

This lock is an absolute piece of crap! just connects to 2.4 GHz which is a pain in the rear! Had to separate my mesh system in 5G and 2.4 just to install it! Probably gonna get rid of it in a week

@user-jh1mq2ih2u

God forbid you have to reach for your keys or wait.. Jesus these cons are just you being lazy and you’d be nuts not to have a key still for your locks

@jmtm82

Pretty horrible product not happy with mine and it’s complete true what the poster mentioned

Avoid

Hard pass. Too much hassle

@steveqseventeen5192

Does this cost you monthly?
What gen would you recommend?
My house has been robbed like 40/50 times, I think the person has a ring of kets cause I have changed my locks about 5 times already and I am still getting hit, I have a bunch of cameras
I want one that notify's me every time it is unlocked.
Thanks in advance
