Does the August Smart Lock Pro work with HomeKit?

Best answer: The August Smart Lock Pro supports Apple's HomeKit, which both integrates the lock with the rest of your smart home setup and offers an additional layer of security for your door.

Amazon: August Smart Lock Pro ($199)

The August Smart Lock Pro puts convenience and security in the palm of your hand (or on your wrist)

Being HomeKit-compatible means the Smart Lock Pro can join the rest of your home automation accessories such as smart lights and appliances. It also means that you can create different automation instructions for the Smart Lock Pro, such as automatically locking or unlocking when you leave or arrive at your home.

If you also have an Apple Watch, any requests made by the August Smart Lock Pro that get sent to your iPhone can also be sent to your watch, letting you approve or decline them without having to pull your phone out of your pocket. This sort of thing can be great if you require your Smart Lock Pro to request permission before it unlocks your door.
