Klunky, slow, and just inconvienient to use. Inferior to a key fob in every way. Could it prove useful in a pinch? Sure, but this should not be the primary method of access to someone's home. Phone's battery dies? Whoops, oh well. No access for you. Don't get signal on the ground floor of the parking garage? Hope you don't need to use any of those doors. Replacing our fobs with this app is the stupidest thing the apartment complex has ever done. And that is saying something.

**Update** I've been using the app for several months to access the common areas and the door lock was just recently installed. It only works if you're by the sensor. I've only had Rocket open automatically maybe a handful of times. It's far more convenient to use my key fob remote. The door lock is worse. It only connects if I'm standing at the door so I use the keypad however the keypad use isn't logged in the app so I have no real idea of entry or exit to my home.

Takes upwards of 20 seconds to find lock by proximity. Cannot use spaceship mode on home door (not registered as a favorite, no permission to add to favorites). Cannot add multiple pins for the door. Locking the door is moderately responsive, but still takes 3+ seconds for the door to realize you're trying to lock it. Occasionally locks door while it's open for indiscernible reasons. It's about two years too early for market. At this point it's worse in every way from having a key.

It's a really dumb idea to replace key fobs with this system. I've been living with it for a while, including several weeks with the "faster" NFC system enabled. It's still slow, and the app sometimes crashes. Then I'm left with no way to get into the building or into the parking garage. Also, sometimes I want to go for a run and a key fob is way more convenient than lugging around a phone. If anything, this system should be another option along side, but in no circumstances a complete replacement for, key fobs. This is especially true now that the app crashes immediately after opening since the last version update (Pixel 5, up to date Android 12). Until they get it fixed, I'll have to rely on others to get into the building and down to the parking garage. Key fob - I miss you!

Even using Bluetooth mode (supposedly faster than wifi) it takes way longer to connect to the lock and unlock than it ever did to use my key. Even the fastest mode for getting into my apartment (keypad) still takes SO LONG, as I often have to touch the screen several times before it wakes up and displays. Tried Spaceship mode and (in addition to being extremely sus) it's virtually useless in my building given the ten max limit on favorites. No one would use this if not forced by a landlord.

The app and lock system are low grade junk. The locks are cheap and you can feel it when using them. The app frequently can't find the locks. For some reason you can't favorite your own front door or back door. But the pool thats closed for the year? Sure!!! There is no user manual. The main website is just a sales funnel. Despite what is said from the sales rep, these locks ARE wifi enabled. Chirp just doesn't want you using it. In short if my apt complex didn't force this on me there is no way in hell I'd use such a poor product.
