Reports from Nest Secure customers who are unable to arm/disarm or lock/unlock

I don't really see the appeal of smart locks. It doesn't add any convenience, since you could always just lock the door on your way out.

That being said, I think regular passcode locks without internet connectivity do add a convenience since you don't have to carry a key.

I rent an apartment on Airbnb, and handing out keys to every single guest is way worse from a security standpoint.

I prefer to create users, authorize, delete them than rekeying the lock every once in a while.

However they're pretty much all terrible, security wise. And how do you tell who knows the passcode at any point in time?
