Leave a Review Kwikset Premis Smart Lock
Works fine in 2023
While there are newer locks, I wanted something to integrate with my pretty extensive existing Homekit setup. Despite some critical reviews I decided to give it (Premis lock) a shot. I have an AppleTV 4k about 30 feet from the door this is in, and an iPhone 14 (iOS 17). I set it up using the iPhone 14, integrating it into my existing home. Worked immediately from both the phone, and using HomeKit via Siri from other devices. Incorporated it into an automation with no issues. Works perfectly with all devices. If I have problems with the next OS update, I'll report back, but happy so far.Show lessIt’s time for an update to push rich notifications
I love my Kwikset smart locks but have always wished there were RICH notifications rather than the dumb ones of “someone unlocked/locked the door”. Come on, Kwikset. It is way past time for a real update to the app. It needs a more refined HomeKit experience. I hope you will make it happen.Underrated
I have had this lock for a year and 2 iOS versions. We have had the occasional hiccup with it not responding (as is the case with MANY smart devices) but overall I’m very pleased. I bought a second one for my basement door. Works great with Siri or with the touchpad. There is an automation for opening it when we arrive at home which works very well. We have replaced the batteries once so far with standard batteries and will do again this week with lithium ones. The app is minimal but we use Apple home for everything anyway. The app is a backup and has worked for us.Show less
