About
Level's defining trick is that the entire mechanism lives inside the door bore — from the outside it looks like an ordinary deadbolt. The Lock+ Connect adds Wi-Fi via a bundled bridge for remote access without a hub, and supports Apple Home Key so you can tap your iPhone or Watch to unlock. It is the pick for anyone who wants smart access without a keypad bolted to their front door.
Pros
- +Completely invisible from outside — keeps your existing hardware look
- +Apple Home Key tap-to-unlock with iPhone or Watch
- +Wi-Fi bridge included, no separate hub needed
- +Retains normal key operation as a fallback
Cons
- −Among the most expensive smart locks available
- −No keypad — access is phone, key or Home Key only
- −Requires a standard door bore; thick or non-standard doors may not fit
