The good news: Lockly locks always work at the door with fingerprint, keypad or key, and its new Matter models will work with Apple Home, Google Home and other systems.
The bad news: Lockly is small and shares little about its finances, and its locks sold so far do not support Matter, so they depend on Lockly’s app for remote features.
If you own Lockly
- Keep the backup key and fresh batteries.
- If you want Matter, look at the Affirm series.
