FAQ

Can I set different schedules for weekdays and weekends?
Yes - most smart lock apps support day-by-day scheduling. Set weekday school hours, weekend leisure hours, and holiday overrides.
Will the lock notify me when my child arrives home?
Yes - configure per-user arrival notifications. The app sends a push alert when the child's code is used.
What happens if someone tries to use the lock outside their schedule?
