Lousy

Really not a functional app. It never works and I’m wondering why I even got these locks to begin with now. Should’ve went with another vendor if this was the accompanying app

Useless app and expensive non functioning lock

Having bought a Yale IM1 compatible lock 5 years ago, the lock and the app have never worked together and Yale insist on not letting me use the US app that would actually work so I can’t get any HomeKit functionality. Will never buy one of their products again.

Terrible

Almost never works. Have to force kill it multiple times before it can read the lock, sometimes even then it doesn’t load. Hasn’t worked with HomeKit in a year or more. Would not buy again.

Having issue?

if you can’t add people or codes, take yourself off of your local Wi-Fi. This app works a lot better when it’s not connected to the local network.
