Review: It works! And is much faster/easier than having to keep track of a key - We got this because my husband cannot be trusted with keys :) and I am too impatient to fish around for the key and futz with the lock every single time I come and go. So we were pretty sloppy about locking up when we left. (which always made me a tad uncomfortable in the back of my mind) So that is why we got this. We've been using it for about a month now. Installation was pretty easy, and syncing with iphone was a breeze. We did run into one issue/question (the documentation referred to something on the app which had since been moved/renamed) but you just call up support and they picked right up -- even on a sunday! Overall, I really like it! I would say about 90% of the time it behaves exactly as hoped/expected-- it locks the door behind you when you leave, opens the door as you return. Locking when you leave is pretty much 100% reliable. This has always worked. The part that is a little less reliable is automatically unlocking when you return. My husband always has his bluetooth headphones in so I think for him this messes up communication between his phone and the lock. For me, I have a couple of times gotten a message saying something about a communication error with the lock. But if this happens, it still always unlocks using the app (in other words, the worst case scenario is that instead of unlocking all by itself, you have to pull out your phone). Not a big deal. I would say that if you have a sticky lock, then you should probably try and resolve that before installing so you don't wear out the batteries prematurely. For us, our lock always rubbed against the plate when locking/unlocking so it was really hard to turn. So we fixed that before installing and I think that was the right move. Hardware-wise, it has been pretty much flawless as a result. I would say if you're thinking about it, then do it! It is a really neat concept, well executed and also well supported!
Review: Great product - install help - Long review for install assistance. Product works great and I can check status as well as open & close the door remotely. There seems to be a trick for installing. If you are having issues connecting to wifi, try the following: 1.) First, it will only connect 2.4GHz. 2.) You will use your phone to connect via the app. 3.) It will be best for you "forget" your home networks except for the one you plan to connect the connect device. The reason for this: when the app attempts to join the network, it drops the current connection and then rejoins ur next home network (if you have both 2.4 & 5 GHz or a guest network). This is only half of the config process. When it tries to reconnect to the WiFi, it won't be able to. Save yourself some aggreviation, remove all (except the 2.4GHz network you want the connect on) local networks from your cell. Add them back after... I had the lock, the connect and my (new - already working) WiFi extender within 5ft of each other and it still had issues cinnecting when I had more than 1 home network "remembered' for auto join. After you join your new connect, you can text signal strength, etc. One last thing... MAJOR props to support. I had issues with the auto unlock feature after I added the connect device. Within 1-2 days of contacting support, opening a case; I sent a few logs via the app with the case number. support pushed an upgrade to the lock and it cleared the issue!!! I only run the auto unlock feature (no auto lock.) You do need to go out of range for a certain period. Once you do, you will receive a messsge from the app that you left the area. Once you see that.... your all set with the auto unlock when you return. Hope this has helped and saves someone the aggreviation and testing I went thru.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you need to have August Connect to be able to use August Smart Lock? If not, what does it do that Smart Lock doesn't?**
A: August connect is not required. August smart lock uses blue tooth so you have to be in about 15 feet of proximity to the lock with you phone. What connect does is makes the Bluetooth connection and also connects to your wifi. Then you can connect to the August smart lock from anywhere over wifi through the August connect. I like having both but again not required. Do note that if you have 2 August smart locks and want remote access, then you will need 2 August connect's as each can only pair with 1 lock. I really like this company and everything works flawlessly so far for me with the locks and the connects which I just added.

**Q: What is the power input rating (voltage) for the August Connect?**
A: It says 110 - 240v 50hz - 60hz.

**Q: Do I need this in order for the lock to work**
A: No. The lock itself works over Bluetooth which has an effective range in a house of perhaps 40 ft. The Augusy Connect connects to the August service via your home wifi and then uses the lock's Bluetooth connection--in short, it's extending the range from ~40 ft to Internet-infinite; in theory, if both you and your house have an Internet connection, you can open the lock from anywhere in the world. If you only care to open the lock when you or someone else authorized is stood in front of it, then the lock alone is enough. That said, I'm on my 3rd August Connect and it's also beginning to misbehave disconnecting at random--don't buy the Connect if the lock alone meets your needs.

**Q: Do you need one of these for each August Lock you have in the home?**
A: Per the product description, a single Connect links to a single lock.  You need a connect for each lock. It does not act as a hub for all locks in a location.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product!
*by C***R on January 20, 2026*

The Bluetooth can be a bit sluggish, however, it’s been used for many years reliably. The auto lock is great piece of mind. Simple to install. I’ve been using rechargeable batteries in mine. No issues.
