Background Information

There were no recalls known about this device at this time. The Nest X Yale lock made "The Best Smart Locks of 2022" on Tom’s Guide. Some parts of the device that can malfunction or fail are the camera, touch screen, battery, Wi-Fi, audio, and the lock. It fits with the rest of the family of locks because its works just like any other device in the family. The old model that was replaced is called Yale assure lock, it was replaced because the Nest X Yale lock was easier to use and had an updated design. The device that replaced Nest X Yale was August Smart Lock Pro because it fits on the deadbolt on the door and has texture to add grip.

Identification
