SwitchBot Lock

The SwitchBot Lock is designed for ease of installation, requiring no tools as it can be affixed with the provided 3M adhesive, though a drilling option is available for those who prefer a more permanent fitting. It is created to be highly compatible with various lock types without altering the pre-existing lock mechanism. The device offers features like auto-lock, which activates after a door has been closed for a preset duration, and Home Sharing, which allows for lock operation via the SwitchBot app and the ability to share access with family members. Security is reinforced with ATS-128-CTR encryption, and the lock's battery life is robust, lasting approximately 180 days based on an average usage of ten times per day. Integration with SwitchBot Hub Mini or Hub 2 enables voice command capabilities through smart assistants and remote operation, with the latter providing Matter compatibility for control via Apple Home.
