IGB4 Smart Deadbolt

I recently purchased the Igloohome Smart Lock for my Airbnb entrance door, and it has proven to be the best decision I made after dealing with the discontinuation of my previous August lock. The August lock was no longer supported outside of the US, prompting me to explore alternatives, and I'm delighted with the quality and performance of the Igloohome Smart Lock.Having previously used an Igloohome padlock and being satisfied with its quality, I decided to give their smart lock a try. I must say, I am not disappointed with my purchase; it has been a worthwhile investment. After four months of use, I have encountered no issues, and the battery life is impressive. With 4 Duracell batteries, the lock still maintains over 90% battery life.One standout feature of the Igloohome Smart Lock is its wifi capability, enabling me to conveniently check the battery status and customize access codes for guests. This feature is a significant improvement over traditional algorithm-generated pins, ranging from 7 to 9 digits, making it much easier for guests to remember.Before purchasing, I had concerns about the wifi bridge's range, as my setup required it to be positioned farther from the lock. However, after reading reviews and taking a chance, I can confirm that the lock seamlessly connects to the wifi bridge even when the door is open at its widest angle.In summary, the Igloohome Smart Lock has proven to be a great buy for my Airbnb property. Its reliability, extended battery life, and user-friendly wifi capabilities make it a game-changer in terms of security and convenience. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable and smart lock system.

I purchased eight Igloohome locks for my properties, but unfortunately, they have not met my expectations compared to other smart lock systems. The issues I’ve encountered include:-Tenants consistently experiencing problems, such as being unable to sync with their assigned locks.-The inability to create or delete access codes remotely, requiring me to be physically present.-Lack of updates or connectivity to monitor battery levels, leaving me unaware until batteries are depleted.These challenges have created significant inconvenience, not only for me as a property manager but also for the tenants and guests who rely on these locks. Managing my properties has become unnecessarily complicated due to these ongoing issues.

Amazing product especially for AirBnB hosts! I was cautious since there were so few reviews but the features this touted stood head and shoulders above every other Smartlock I found on the market, so I gave it a try. I must say, it is great!(1) It saves me so much time and makes me look so professional by fully integrating with AirBnB and automatically sending out pin codes. I have experienced no glitches or problems so far.(2) It can be used with gloves! So convenient for when wearing work gloves or winter gloves.(3) The key pad is attractive. (wasn't sure about the modern black as my house is traditional looking but it looks great)(4) Auto-locking feature I like much more than I thought I would. The only time this did not work was when the sensor fell down and the person did not check to confirm the door was locked. I emphasize that you must confirm it is locked not just mindlessly rely on the technology. However I superglued the sensor when I put it back (instead of just using the adhesive it came with) so far no more issues with the sensor falling off the door frame.My only wish is that it integrated with HomeAway and/or Booking.com platforms. IglooHome has a competitive advantage now with their AirBnB integration but if another big lock company comes along and works with more hospitality platforms before Igloohome does, they could be eclipsed in this market. So I hope they get on this fast! it will also save me a lot of time. :-)Also I will warn or remind folks that, since the lock does not utilize WiFi, in order to make a custom pin code you do need to place your phone near the device to set a custom pin. You can remotely generate a random pin. Also you must use the pin code within 24 hrs of establishing it order to activate it.
