Amazon Key features rolled out across US
Amazon has expanded some Amazon Key features to all US customers, including keyless entry, remote lock and unlock and guest access.
There are also five new locks from Kwikset and Yale, meaning there are now eight available in three finishes as part of the Amazon Key Home Kit. But those waiting for in-home delivery using Amazon Key will be disappointed. This will still only be available to Prime customers in 37 US cities and surrounding areas.
Users now have the option to view motion video clips of a person entering or leaving when the door is locked or unlocked. “Customers have told us that they love how easy it is to use Amazon Key for keyless entry and door monitoring from anywhere with the app,” says Rohit Shrivastava, General Manager, Amazon Key. “It’s a great service for busy families; you no longer have to worry about giving keys to service providers like house cleaners, instead you can give them their own code right from your app. We’re excited that customers across the country can now take advantage of these convenient features.”
