It’s selling for $112 now. It’s safer with just Bluetooth connection. It’s always a chance a hacker can open your lock when it’s connected to the internet.

Not everyone needs the Connect. I personally would rather keep my door lock off the internet. For those who do need the Connect, no need to spend additional $80; the lock + connect combo costs $109.99 at the moment on Amazon, so just $41 extra.

Needs August smart connect for the lock to connect to the internet. Without this additional unit, connection to the lock can only be through Bluetooth connection. This is $ 80 additional for the hub.
