Expensive but worth it for Homepass - could be improved
4 out of 5 stars

Expensive but worth it for Homepass - could be improved

The hardware feels nice along with the included fasteners and adhesives, but I wish the plastic cover for the battery, programming reset button, and Wi-Fi module compartment felt more substantial. That plastic part does feel like something which could break easily (I could see someone dropping it from popping it off to replace the batteries). I like that it's plastic for Wi-Fi reception, however. Obviously, that's better than if it were metal or some other material that would interfere with signal. I'm comparing this with a Z-Wave Keypad Combination Keyed Deadbolt I am replacing from 2017 from another common lock manufacturer who will go unnamed - it had a much more substantial feeling cover and was a less expensive lock (also a plastic cover). Too bad Z-Wave is so unreliable with anything that I had access to with HomeAssistant...One other concern is that it will intermittently not be connected to Wi-Fi during hotter parts of the day. It still works with Bluetooth during those times, but it's concerning for the long term of the product's life.The setup is a little interesting / cumbersome with the app and the booklet, but once it's installed it's so much nicer than z-wave and using a keypad or a key! For instance, with the application, you have to tap to get rid of some video interaction buttons that don't auto hide when you start a video for a new step of the lock installation. Prepare to tap on the screen so you can see the step, each time.I unfortunately ripped some paint off while repositioning the magnetic sensor on my door. So be forewarned that the 3M foam dual sided tape is not kidding around!Another gotcha - be very certain that if you need to unplug this thing (outer keypad from the inner module), use some sort of plastic spudger / nylon probe tool so you don't strain the delicate wires and plastic connector with your fingers when disconnecting the Molex like plastic connector... I had a very difficult time trying to find my electronics repair kit with the aforementioned tool to undo the cable so I could take off the spacer which is preinstalled on the keypad module (since I had mis measured). I didn't have to re cut my door whatsoever to get this to fit. I was a little sad that the Yale handles weren't in stock, but I found a matching handle at local hardware store that ended up fitting.I have a few 9v batteries stashed in some secret accessible locations in case the batteries die at an unideal time, but I hadn't ever run into that problem on my old lock (which failed mechanically).Another thing, I would have preferred a darker brown color, but oh well. I need to paint the door a different color anyways to get rid of the ugly lines left by the indentations of the prior deadbolt and handle.I like the packaging that it comes in when ordering from Amazon - it's recyclable carboard with minimal ink / dye. You get everything you need in the box aside from say a screwdriver and or a drill / borer for the magnetic sensor if you plan on mounting it flush within your wooden door frame.Using the lock feels flawless with Homepass. Just bring your Homepass card near the door and it opens. It's also cool to setup automations to just unlock or lock the door when you've arrived home (say from you triggering your Garage door with Homekit or something like that) or when you've left (same thing). Bluetooth + Wi-Fi is the way to go with this for reliability and the keypad for the backup.For those worried someone could just yell at your Siri or what not (say to your Homepod or Homepod mini) to open the door really loud, you actually can't do that even if you wanted to because it'll ask you to continue on your iPhone where you've installed the Yale App to authenticate that command. I think Yale and Apple really covered all the bases with this product. It's got a few things to be desired, but in my opinion it's the best smart lock product for your iOS family and Homekit and Homepass on the market, as of right now.Forgive the ugly paint!

This block works pretty well all the time. Very little to complain of here. Only issue is that HomeKit sometimes misreads the lock as unlocked when it’s not. Easy to install. Attractive.

I have owned five prior Yale Assure locks -- the original HomeKit ones with August built in, a lever lock and the more recent Yale Assure 2 (before HomeKey). All were generally quite reliable and if anything ever failed, it was the geofenced auto-unlock, but I could live with that occasional failure. I've love the DoorSense function and the overall usability otherwise.

When I saw that the HomeKey version was available, I immediately jumped on it. We're all big into he Apple ecosystem and I was excited to be able to go out for a run without my keys or phone and just tap my watch when I get home.

After replacing my Yale Assure 2 with this new HomeKey variant, all was fine for a while, but then eventually it would fail to auto-lock. The app would show that the door was closed and lock -- but it was not locked. This proved to be a big security risk as we had all grown accustomed to the auto-lock function when leaving the house. And the prior locks were dead reliable at locking -- but this one is not, and worst of all if you look in the app, it would tell you the door is locked when it is not.

I have spoken with tech support many, many times. We run through the same steps a variety of different ways, but there is no resolution.

So I'd stay away until these serious security flaw bugs are figured out. This lock is not cheap. If it worked as promised, I'd be fine with that. But as it is, this is unacceptable at any price.

Got this because it was recommended by a family member who knows what he’s talking about.
It was super easy to install and works amazingly well. The screws were easy to use especially since we were replacing an existing smart lock. It fits the door very well, in fact better than the original lock on our door.

Only a few small complaints.
1. It’s frustrating that to connect it to wifi to use remotely you have to buy another expensive component. While the cheaper one we replaced came with that feature out of the box (the design look use and hardware quality on that one was much worse so it’s obviously a trade off). I will likely buy the wifi component still, but it isn’t absolutely necessary.
2. When the battery is dying it’s honestly not immediately obvious. It seems to notify you with a different sound but if I’m honest it’s not clear. When the battery is low but not dead the touch screen seems VERY slow to respond and takes longer to open but the phone key and keypad still both work.

With full battery the thing works fantasticly and the app and setup for guest codes is awesome. I love it, it was an upgrade for sure.

Works great easy to install definitely paying for quality

**Update. I saw on the reviews ppl were having problems with connectivity issues. I had the same problem but fixed it. Super simple. Your lock needs to be on a 2.4gHz internet. If you have multiple WiFi access points like me, you need to connect your lock to the modem and not the access points. Very simple fix. The locks work flawlessly. If you want the best in locks; this is the product

Hope this helps some of you…

*** Resolving Door auto-lock issues (Read thoroughly - devil in the details): ***

1. To fix issues 1 and 2 (see below under “Old Issues resolved by above troubleshooting”), needed to install DoorSense into door frame. Once I did this and tweaked the Yale app, lock began to function correctly.

2. Tweaking Yale Access app: under Automation 1. Ensure, automatic lock enabled (mine was probably disabled when someone pressed passage mode button (page 30 of instruction manual)). 2. Calibrate DoorSense 3. Configure Auto-lock function and all settings under Automation.

*** Also very helpful: ***
1. Advanced Settings: turn on light indicator to indicate lock status. The most important one is when passage mode is activated, it will blink yellow on inside portion of lock. With this mode ON, it will **PREVENT** Auto-lock from functioning until passage is disabled. Yale should add a settings in their app to disable the passage button. Light color indicator alerts descriptions (page 28)…yellow means, red means…

2. Lastly, enable smart alerts for door ajar/open…it took 6-12 hours before Yale Access app generated door ajar/opened notifications on my phone. Homekit notifications will continue to be unlocked/locked…with no additional ajar/open notifications.

3. You can Unlock and LOCK using Home Key. I save time by LOCKING door with my watch or phone…instead of trying to press the Yale logo…especially when dark.

*** Old Issues that were resolved by above troubleshooting: ***
1. Locking features stopped working - unable to lock from outside - pressing Yale logo fails to locklc

2. Lock status reported incorrectly in both Home App and Yale App - the Apps reported it as locked, however, it was unlocked - auto-lock also failed to lock

*** Persistent Issues ***
1. Limited HomeKit functionality - unable to provide guest Home Keys in Home app (maybe Apple or Yale’s fault, not sure), needed to use guest codes on the Yale App as a workaround.

2. Sometimes Home Key fails to unlock from Apple Watch Ultra 2, have to switch to iPhone

3. Poorly designed Yale App - it is very basic, UI is clunky

4. Yale Support is terrible; their staff is not trained correctly and lack troubleshooting/analytical skillset for the products and have limited knowledge of the products.

*** Additional Thoughts: ***
1. Previous lock with Homekit modules very worked well.

2. RANT - If Apple and their partners are going to be serious about HOME AUTOMATION, then they should put more effort into it - if they are charging hundreds of dollars for their products (locks, cams, HomePods etc), ensure the experience is a good one…and it all just works. Is this asking a lot?…I and others spent $300 (and more) in response to that question.

I love this. No more digging for keys out of my purse because I can use my watch. Sometimes it’s slow to unlock on its own when it senses me pulling into the driveway but it’s not a big deal at all. Kicking myself for not getting one of these sooner.

4.0 out of 5 stars Funciona en México con workaround
Reviewed in Mexico on July 25, 2024
Color: Satin NickelStyle: Wi-FiVerified Purchase
Como varios comentarios lo indican, no funciona en México ya que es necesario contar con la aplicación Yale Access que solo está disponible en US/Ca. Me comuniqué a soporte de Yale en Mexico y me confirmaron lo mismo, este producto no funciona en México debido a la aplicación Yale Access.

Lo que hice fue crear una cuenta de Apple para tener acceso a la App Store de US, descargar Yale Access y hacer la configuración correspondiente. Considerar que para crear la cuenta de Yale es necesario un teléfono de US para recibir el código SMS para confirmar la cuenta.

Una vez instalada tiene muy buen look y HomeKit funciona excelente. Si es un poco más lenta en ejecutar las acciones de apertura y cierre comparada con Schlage pero en lo personal funciona bien. Actualizaré si con el paso del tiempo hay algún problema.

1.0 out of 5 stars Homekey doesn’t work

It seems like the homekey functionality doesn’t work at all. Nothing happens when you tap the home key on the lock. I’ve reached out to support and they did the typical try a factory reset but as expected, that didn’t do anything. It seems like this product hasn’t been well developed / tested and you can find many other similar stories.

I love the product, worked well with iPhones and Apple Watches (except that one instance when after factory reset, Apple Watch home key cannot be recognized). Just need to note that this has no keys so if something goes wrong (very unlikely - since there’s a backup battery), you’re out of luck and locked out. Having ol’ keys will keep that from happening. If you’re using it in Singapore, you’re gonna need USA App Store access to get the Yale Access app.
Update: the lock unreliably detects the locked/unlocked status now. Whenever it locks by itself, the next time someone unlocks it manually using the thumbturn - it does not go all the way unless you apply a bit more force. If not, the lock will not detect it as fully unlocked (and features like auto-lock will not work since it thinks it's still locked). Tried calibrating, re-handing, factory-reset, etc....but none helped. Would have been a great lock if not for that. And now it’s gone to a point that it’s better to just get another lock. Yale support was great, but in the end, it was the product that needed more improvements.

Like others I found I was initially unable to pair this lock with my phone using the ‘Yale Home’ app in the Australian App Store. This lock is only compatible with the US version of the Yale app, called ‘Yale Assure’, only available via the US iOS App Store. To get the correct app, I created a new icloud account with a US address. Having set this up, it’s a very good lock, the only downside I can see is limited bluetooth range.
