Easy to Install
For someone who is mechanically inclined, there’s a door lock is easy to install. Just follow the simple instructions and voila it’s done. Yeah have to install an app if you want to use the Bluetooth mode or you can just use the keypad and install the code without using the app. The silver looks nice when installed and you can install numerous codes so you can give codes to whoever is needed.

Keypad won't illuminate
The keypad will not illuminate all the numbers when you touch it. Therefore I cannot put my code into unlock the door

Hello Crap,
We appreciate your feedback and your experience with our products is very important to us. The SecureScreen is an added security feature that displays random digits before you enter a user code to unlock the door. This feature ensures that there are fingerprints on all digits so that codes cannot be identified by examining the touchscreen for fingerprints. If desired, this feature can be disabled by toggling it off in the settings of the Kwikset App. Should you need further assistance, we ask that you please call our Support Team at 1-800-327-5625.
Thank you,

Reading Helper
I had the luck of having a reading helper. While I was performing the install, my wife was reading from the app. Worked out great. We did a swap out from an existing deadbolt. No drilling, no changes needed. All the parts are labeled good. I would suggest not installing the inner battery cover screw since the second step is to pair the lock with your phone. You have to access the battery pack and the program button. Had to do it twice since we didn’t think to look ahead.

Works great but loud
I have a few of these types of locks but this my first AURA. Easy to install and easy to setup with app. My two biggest complaints are that it's extremely loud and a bit pricey. Would recommend but again it's loud don't try to use app or code if you want to be quiet I recommend using key if you don't want to wake everyone up lol.

Easy install and setup
Works as advertised. Setup and installation was easy. Will add more information after I’ve had it installed awhile.

IMPORTANT - You can't use this app unless you allow the app to track your exact phone location at all times
I installed 5 of these at my house. They work fine once you install them correctly. However.... I just had to update the app and now I can't use it at all unless I allow the app to track my exact location at all times. Talk about a bait and switch after spending $250.00 per lock. Total scam!!!!!!

Hello,
We're here to help! Locations should be allowed during the set-up process to ensure the correct time is set on the lock, as this is important for reporting lock events and enforcing scheduled access. Kwikset does not have visibility to the lock's location or status, and the location is not required to stay on. If there's any further assistance that we can provide, please know we are happy to help you at 1-800-327-5625.

Easy but secure access
Installed this with my new door and I’m impressed of the easy set up to my mobile app. I can lock and unlock with my phone, key pad or even Alexa. Beautiful modern appearance.

Kwikset Aura- Easy and Relatively Fast Install
Set up, install and clean up should only take 30-60 minutes. Although the package comes with paper instructions you will want to download the Kwikset application for an easier installation guide. You will need the Kwikset app regardless to set up a combination, view other locks, organize up to 250 codes/people, turn on auto lock, enable/disable lock sounds, enable/disable LED status, view paired smartphones, Identify lock with sound, or see how to pair locks with Alexa or Google Assistant.

Nice lock
This lock was easy to install and works great! I only had a couple issues. You have to set up a 2.4G wireless SSID, will not find 5G, likely because you get greater distance with 2.4G. Also the App would not work when I left my home even though the app showed the lock was connected to my wireless and the cloud. I finally power cycled my phone and that resolved that issue.

Super happy with this product!
Whoever wrote the step-by-step installation guide should be given a promotion and a raise! As someone who works in marketing, I know how important clear product instructions are-this was the best installation experience I’ve ever had. I guarantee I would have given up (I’m not the handiest woman) if not for that guide being so helpful and thorough. Great experience and product so far!

Great Functioning Lock
I purchased this door lock based on two important criteria: 1) my wife's insisting on being able to remotely lock or unlock our front door when we are not at home 2) this being a Kwikset so that that I rekey this lock to match my other doors. On account of both criteria, this lock passes with flying colors.
I do like the feature that you can store up to 250 passcodes and associate those to specific individuals as well as limit the duration of when the passcodes work.

Halo Installation
The door lock installation and application setup went fairly easily and it works fine remotely, which is why I purchased the product (grandma was leaving the house unlocked).
My only difficulty was getting the lock to fit into the door jamb without registering an error. Once I enlarged the hole with a chisel it locked correctly. Good product and support but it is expensive. Hopefully, the batteries stay charged for a good length of time.

Love the convenience!
Easy install. Just a couple of extra steps compared to a standard deadbolt due to the inside of the door parts. My wife and I love the convenience of the one button locking. We are frequently out on our property and no longer have to be concerned with remembering to grab a key before leaving the house.

Great lock
The lock and handle were super easy to install. The only hang up was with the Kwik Set app. That was overcome with a 3 minute call to tech support.

Quick and easy
I thought that it would be an all day project to install. NOT, went to the Kwikset website, select the model all the instructions come up, very easy to understand and follow. Then it came time to set up the app, easy step by step, it took me longer to remember my router password then it took to set up and pair to my phone. The app is easy to use and change settings or pass codes. The instructions that came with the lock assembly were good but easier to follow along on the website.

Updated firmware sept 2022..makes
Better battery life.. yes i was buying lithium energizer would last 60 days and be depleted. And it was only me using door. Twice a day. Come in go out for work.. no more. But i hope kwikset fixed this problem.. i suggest they make one for rechargeable batteries with a solar front cover. To keep batteries charged.. idea 💡 i too had hard time fingerprints reading. But my son show me .if u do it like your phone finger print steps it works better. And it worked. it works evertime.Tech is patience

Exactly what I wanted.....
I had to drill my door jam out a little bit so the deadbolt would extend fully, for the best result. Downloaded the app, followed the strip by step instructions. So easy. Now I don't have to give my grandkid a key to take to school, that she might lose. Even if she loses her phone, she had her own code. I love this lock!!!

Halo WiFi Smart Lock
The Halo we purchased was one of the few that had WiFi without needing an Alexa or Google device. The install worked well. The worst part was having to drill a new deadbolt and strike hole. Kwikset should consider making one of these with WiFi and a doorknob as part of the unit.

66 year old woman installed!
I bought this Halo touchscreen with no expectation that I would be able to install this.Being curious, I decided to try. The old opening was same size.
So I followed the instructions (provided on bar code) I had it installed in about 20 minutes. The pairing instructions were just as clear. Created account, added users & pass codes, tested the lock w/ the app and even re-keyed it to my existing key. It is perfect. Battery life? Don't know, as it is new. I'll post again if it is a battery eater.

So far loving it
It's been less than a month, but so far we're loving it. Not have to carry around and use a key is the best feature. No issues with the physical installation. Straight forward - pretty much the same as installing a regular deadbolt. We've had no issues with the lock driving the deadbolt. Love having different codes for different people. The reason it's getting a 4 instead of a 5 is that we had some issues Kwickset software during the setup process. It kept telling is to add the lock, then complained that we couldn't add it becasue it was already there. We had to fiddle and try it several times, but finally got it programmed.
