How this automation works

Automatically secure your Kwikset Smart Locks when you leave a designated location. This Applet runs when your mobile device detects that you’ve exited a set area, instantly sending a command to lock your selected door. Perfect for ensuring your home or property stays secure when you head out for work, errands, or travel.
