And we need to take our keys with us anyway, or how will we lock our house!?

I have an August Bluetooth lock installed. Works great, I never take my house keys with me now.

Wow, you really are living in the future my friend!!
|
I'm old fashion and like using my hand to unlock using physical keys... Never have to worry about battery failure (inside the smart locks or phone) or hacking...

I get that. I wouldn't rely on it 100%. The great thing about August Lock is that it only replaces the inside part of the lock. The outside is unmodified, so nobody can tell it is a smart lock, and more importantly, you can still use the key if needed.
