@Konrad Thanks for the explanation, but this approach raises a few serious concerns.
First, sensor reliability should be a given. If the design or mounting of the magnet can cause unreliable readings, that’s not a reason to weaken the logic — it’s an issue with hardware or calibration that needs to be addressed. The door sensor in this system is one of the most expensive on the market, if not the most expensive, so having any doubts about its reliability is simply unacceptable. A smart lock that cannot consistently trust its own sensor data undermines both user confidence and system integrity.
Second, about keypad locking — yes, it definitely makes sense to apply the same safety rule there, but that’s precisely why it should have been part of the design from the beginning. Saying that this fundamental feature “is being evaluated” sounds like it might be added at some point in the future, rather than treated as an essential fix. Considering how straightforward the functionality is, it should already be implemented.
Lastly, while a simple tap from the app won’t trigger a lock when the door is open, there is currently no way to view the actual door sensor status remotely. This is another important caveat that I plan to address in a separate forum discussion.
