If you’ve ever seen lockpicking lawyer on youtube, smart locks are the easiest locks to pick in the world. If they spend lots on the electronics, the keyway is usually shit and anyone could pick it. If they spent a lot on a secure keyway, you can usually just pop off the panel and reset it or short it to unlock. If they spent a lot on the keyway and the electronics… landlords wouldn’t buy it because they’re cheap as fuck.

There are good locks but 99% of people don’t buy them.

Came here to say this. I will add that a strong magnet is usually enough to open these. Don’t even need to pick.

smartlocks are the bane of my existence. i started off with a deadbolt, then a month into my lease they said we’re replacing these with a smart lock. by the way, you only get 1 key, can’t make more of them, if you lose it it will be 50 dollars to replace (i checked and they cost 5 dollars lol). Oh and they dont work in the rain bye! I had to leave my apartment unlocked no less than 3 times because I had to urgently leave and the lock didn’t work after 10 minutes of trying. At one point I woke the maintenance guy up at 3am because the battery died. /:

The moment I’m locked out of my apartment and rendered unable to access my things is the moment my landlord has a whole fuckload of broken property to deal with.

Try and keep me from my Hitachi wand landlord? You’re fucking with the wrong cowboy.

This is why I am generally skeptical of any smart appliance, who knows what they do with it down the road.

Especially an appliance that you (a user) are not the “administrator” of.

Never heard of that one before, this is hilarious, they got $120 million for creating a useless juicer.
Venture capitalists must be some of the most gullible people on the planet.

I don’t think it’s that. Honestly it sounds like a huge grift/money laundering scheme to me.
