August's HomeKit-compatible smart lock is down to its lowest price of the year

Our friends at Thrifter are back with a sweet deal on a HomeKit-compatible smart lock for a great price!

Amazon is offering the second-generation August Smart Lock with HomeKit and Alexa compatibility for $179.99 (silver only). Nearly every other retailer has it priced at $230, and outside of Black Friday last year, this deal is the best we've ever tracked for this nifty smart home component. With features like auto-lock, temporary virtual keys and remote access (requires August Connect), the August Smart Lock adds a serious level of security as well as convenience to your home.

HomeKit and Alexa compatibility means you'll be able to unlock your front door using a voice command (welcome to the future)! It is one of our favorites, and 826 Amazon reviewers rate it 3.6 out of 5 stars.
