iPhone-Connected Smart Locks

Level Home Launches an Apple Home Keys Lock Called 'Level Lock+'

— October 22, 2022 — Tech
Level Home Inc, a leading smart home company, has announced the launch of its next-gen smart lock product, the 'Level Lock+.' The Level Lock+ is only available at Apple. It integrates Apple's home key technology, allowing homeowners to lock and unlock their homes via their iPhone or Apple Watch.

Now with Apple home keys, users can conveniently and safely enter their homes and utilize home key features directly through their iPhones, including power reserve. With power reserve, if a user’s iPhone completely runs out of battery, they can still use their home key access for up to five hours.

“Apple home keys technology makes your iPhone or Apple Watch your key,” says Ken Goto, Co-Founder and CTO of Level Home. “With Level Lock+, it was important to us to advance the technology and safety inside of our smart locks through the latest and greatest solutions available without any sacrifice in size or design.”
