HomeKit has lacked robust "Roles" for a long time. Glad to see the beginnings of Guest Access here (pause video at 9:59). Hopefully in iOS 16 they will give us the ability to control what other devices guests can/can't use.

Looking at the Aqara website it seems to state that its a mortice locking system, so it wouldn't support the multipoint that most of the UK use. Hopefully more brands will start supporting this and we get more options over here than the dated Conexis L1

How can I be 100.00% sure that during the setup or operation of this device, that no information is sent back to the manufacturer about my email address or physical location? Is there an "Aqara app"? Do I need this app do set up or operate this lock? Call me paranoid, but I'm not comfortable allowing unknown people in an unknown country to know details about the locks on my house. Other than this, good review. I'm eagerly awaiting the Aqara Thread sensors. This is the first KZitem video that I eagerly watched the sponsor part of the video.

@Penismaster471 How would manufacturers of a physical lock know anything about my home if I buy my physical lock in a store? Manufacturers don't know my physical address, so they have NO WAY to know where I am to take advantage of me. But most online services, like Google or FaceBook, know or can easily obtain my physical address. Maybe I need a therapist, but you need a school teacher.

@@svth689 Would definitely be a useful feature to have. I’ve figured out my issue as well. I was thinking that remote locking with HomeKit/Siri would engage the triple mortise bolts, I didn’t realise it just locks/unlocks the top latch. It appears the only way to engage those is to lift the handle. I agree the lock is really nice though, the only thing frustrating me is that there’s no option to turn off the auto locking feature when the door is closed. I like to keep my door unlocked during the day while I’m home.
