Can’t schedule on Sundays

I want to schedule the lock to engage at the same time seven days a week and am unable to schedule anything on Sunday. The event doesn’t appear and the schedule is unchanged. This happens in both customer times and full day.

Fridge lock - Disappointing

Extremely disappointed in the quality and functionality of the fridge lock.

Response from developer

Hello Amy, Thank you for your feedback — we’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. We’ve recently identified a few bugs that affected some locks, and we have already released a firmware update that fixes these issues so they won’t happen again. We’re constantly improving both the lock and the app, adding new features and ensuring better stability. Please reach out to us at info@habit-control.com — we’d really appreciate the chance to help and hopefully change your opinion.

Great Concept; Poor Execution

App failed to connect to box after a few weeks of use and required breaking the hinges to access the battery pack to remove the battery to reset the device. Once repaired and reconnected to the app it again worked for about a week before losing the ability to connect.

Battery is also non rechargeable and an odd size. Can’t access battery without opening the device.

Great concept but poor execution especially for the price tag.

Oh, and the app very bare bones and looks like it was not designed by a professional.

Hello, Thank you for sharing your experience — we’re very sorry for the frustration this caused. We recently discovered a firmware issue that affected Bluetooth reconnection on some early units. Our latest firmware update fully resolves this problem and prevents it from happening again. Please reach out to us at info@habit-control.com so we can either replace your unit or help you update the firmware. We would really appreciate the opportunity to make this right for you.

Lock stopped working

The lock box worked for two years, but then the unlocking action stopped working. The app connects to the box, and the box beeps, but it doesn’t unlock. There no way to get the box to unlock.

Response from developer

Hello, Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing this issue after two years of use. If the app connects and the box beeps but doesn’t unlock, it may be related to an older firmware version or possibly physical wear or damage to the mechanism over time. In either case, we can absolutely help you solve it. Please reach out to us at info@habit-control.com , and our team will walk you through the fix or provide further support if needed. We’d really appreciate the chance to get this resolved for you.

Works good

Simple and useful app. I’ve been using it for a while - works fine for me.

Poorly designed App

The lock is amazing in the sense that it does what it is supposed to do, however, the effort put behind the application (which is the only way to control it) is lackluster to say the least. The app loves to not show the accurate time remaining when using the the timer option. Someone fix it!!!!

I’ve been using it for about a month now, and it really helps me to keep snacks away for some time.
