Smart locks are becoming more popular as a way to secure homes and offices. But do they work with Google and Apple? The short answer is yes, but there are some caveats. Both Google and Apple support the use of smart locks with their respective platforms, but each company has its own set of features and limitations. For example, Apple’s HomeKit platform allows users to control smart locks using Siri voice commands or a compatible iPhone app. However, only certain models of smart locks from companies like Yale and Kwikset are compatible with HomeKit. And even then, not all features of those locks are supported. For example, HomeKit doesn’t allow users to open the door using Siri if the lock is password-protected. Google’s Android platform also supports the use of smart locks, but in a different way than Apple’s HomeKit. Android devices can be paired with compatible smart locks using Bluetooth technology. This means that you can open your door using your phone without having to enter your PIN or password. However, this feature isn’t available on all Android devices and it may not be compatible with all types of smart locks. ..
