August Home Adds Auto-Connect to August Smart Locks

Gone are the days of fumbling for your keys, wondering if you forgot to lock the door, or forgetting where you left your keys. With August’s advanced line of smart locks, you can control your door from anywhere, anytime. August’s Smart Lock with Connect is now location-aware, so it can detect when you’re near the door with or without a Wi-Fi connection.

How Does a Keyless Front Door Lock Work?

A keyless front door lock can make your life easier than ever. With our Auto-Connect technology, your lock automatically detects if you are in front of your door or accessing your lock remotely for seamless control. Previously, when you wanted to check the status of your lock or let someone in remotely, you had to tap the remote connect button and wait for the lock to connect to Wi-Fi. Now that connection happens automatically when you open the lock screen in your August app. No more waiting for a connection or wondering if you locked the door when you left the house – you can instantly confirm your door is locked from the August app. This saves you time and gives you peace of mind by knowing that your house is secure no matter where you are. It’s important to remember that Auto-Connect requires one of our Wi-Fi bridges, such as August Connect Wi-Fi Bridge or an August Doorbell Cam. So, if you’re ready to start enjoying the convenience of Auto-Connect, which of our smart locks is right for you?
