We’re in an apartment so our Jimmy Proof Lock isn’t compatible with most of the electronic locks on the market, (used to have an August lock once upon a time), and we were really missing having keyless entry.I was super excited to see this has a Jimmy lock adapter for our top lock! And it would also work on our bottom mortise lock too, but opted for the top one to start.I’ve installed a lot of smart home devices and this could’ve been a tough one just given the variability of different locks and positions etc., and they did a really nice job designing this to be easy to install. I was surprised at how fast we actually got it installed, the directions were really clear with both a walkthrough video and visuals in the app. We followed the directions in the video with the added Jimmy lock adapter and it was super easy to get assembled too. I’ll leave a separate review for that adapter.But yeah I think the hardest part was setting up was getting the Alexa skill up and running since we weren’t sure how to enable the voice commands, but ChatGPT gave us a quick tutorial and the we were all good.Also the fingerprint keypad is spectacular too, makes coming home so so so much easier, it’s just a little thing but really makes life better. And I setup the automatons in the switch it app to automatically lock after shutting the door and an alarm if it is slightly ajar or doesn’t lock for some reason.Oh and the other great thing that’s better than the August lock is that it has a rechargeable main battery that you can pop out connect to USB-C and charge it back up. I hope I can buy a second main battery because I to have a second one on hand to charge up while one is in use, but battery life was a real frustration with our old August lock where it had AA batteries.Anyway nice job SwitchBot team, this lock gives us great peace of mind and functionality and it’s a super great price too. there are so many little features in the app that make it above and beyond it really is quite smart. Might have to upgrade the keypad to the new face recognition one though 😂😂

So far so good! This is way better than their previous iteration. The prior “upgrade” from the original smart lock, was glitchy and had to recalibrate often…the form factor was bulky. This one so far has operated flawlessly. Works with Amazon, remotely (with the hub). Love the smaller form factor definitely not as obtrusive as either of the last two iterations

The media could not be loaded. The SwitchBot Lock Ultra has been a fantastic addition to my smart home. What really sets it apart is the variety of unlock options. I can use my fingerprint, a passcode, an NFC card, or even unlock it remotely through the app. It’s super convenient, especially when I have guests or deliveries. I can just send a code or unlock the door from wherever I am.Setup was quick and painless, and the lock feels really solid and secure. The fingerprint reader is fast and accurate, and the keypad lights up nicely at night. I also like that you can set up temporary codes for guests or service workers. It’s a small thing, but it makes life easier.It integrates really well with the SwitchBot ecosystem, but you don’t need to go all-in to appreciate how good this lock is. I’ve had no connection issues or reliability problems, and the app gives you a clear log when it’s locked or unlocked. Overall, it’s a super versatile and dependable smart lock. If you’re looking for security, flexibility, and ease of use, I’d definitely recommend it! I switched from a previous smart lock and was able to switch to the SwitchBot Lock Ultra in 10 mins.

The auto-lock with magnetic sensors gives me peace of mind—I love that it won’t lock unless the door is fully shut, and the audible alerts are a great bonus. The ultra-fast unlocking is impressive; it responds almost instantly, which is super convenient when my hands are full.At night, the quiet mode is a thoughtful touch—it’s genuinely silent and doesn’t disrupt anyone’s sleep. Integration with Matter was seamless. I’ve connected it with Apple Home and Alexa through the SwitchBot Hub, and everything runs like a dream.I also appreciate the multiple unlocking options—it adds both flexibility and a sense of control. Overall, this lock is smart, sleek, and dependable. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to upgrade their home security with style and ease!
