Good, but has bugs

Good app, but the home screen widget does not show up properly. It is just plain white with a grey square and rectangle, please fix this.

This is what the world of smart locks has been waiting on

For the last five maybe ten years I’ve wanted a smart front door lock where I could give people access temporarily but a lock that you’re not replacing the battery every few weeks.
This is the one!
Great device with super easy setup(actually too easy I kept thinking is that it!).
The beta software needs work but hay it’s beta.
Loving it.

Awful

We use it for a year now and it constantly deletes accounts and kicks someone out for no reason. It’s a dreadful solution. Please spare yourself a headache and keep on looking.

Visual cue whether locked is a MUST

I cannot believe this essential feature is missing from the app. The whole UX needs reviewing - it is a bit of a worry not knowing if you managed to lock the front door if you’re going away! Please fix this.

Also the history bit should be more verbose and useful - ‘Activation’ does not give us any indication as to whether the lock was opened or closed.

It’s worrying that the issue was pointed out by another customer some 3 years ago and there’s not been any fix.

Please can the developers comment here if it’s an unfixable issue? If yes, Bold shouldn’t sell this product.

Buggy

I try to invite people but buttons in the app just don’t work. Had to restart the app multiple times because it got stuck. Hope this gets solved.
