Apple Home Key is a digital key for iPhone and Apple Watch that resides in your Apple Wallet app, providing always-on access to paired door locks through the Apple Home app. With home keys, you can effortlessly tap to lock or unlock the Schlage Encode Plus smart deadbolt using your iPhone or Apple Watch, ensuring easy and secure access to your home.
To utilize the Apple Home Keys feature, you will need:
Apple Home Keys use near-field communication (NFC), requiring you to hold your device near the lock's touchscreen. The NFC target is marked on the lock’s keypad, similar to how you might use Apple Pay.
You can use Apple Home Keys like Apple Pay—by double tapping the lock button on your iPhone and authenticating with a passcode or Face ID. Alternatively, you can enable Express Mode, which allows you to unlock the lock without unlocking your iPhone or Apple Watch. Simply hold the device to the lock’s keypad. Express Mode can be enabled or disabled per device, allowing you to enable it on your Watch but not on your iPhone, if desired.
