This is the first retrofit smart lock to support Apple’s Home Key.

The Aqara U200 replaces your existing lock and comes with a wireless keypad, which you can tap with an iPhone or Apple Watch for easy unlocking.

It’s now available to buy on Amazon and works with European and UK locks, as well as US deadbolts. It uses Thread, is Matter-compatible, and has fingerprint and PIN code access.

I’ll have a review soon.

If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may earn a commission.

The U200 replaces just the rear portion of your lock, allowing you to keep your existing keyway. A wireless keypad on the exterior lets you use a PIN code, fingerprint reader or Apple Home Key to unlock it.
