Is an internet connection required for the app?
The initial setup and some remote features require a connection; however, Bluetooth is used for local unlocking once the device is paired.
Can I grant temporary access to guests?

How many fingerprints can be stored?

Troubleshooting

Ensure your finger is clean and dry, and wipe the sensor surface with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Cannot connect to the mobile app
Check that Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and that the cylinder is within range. Ensure you are using the correct Tuya or Smart Life app version.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation involves replacing your existing Euro cylinder; ensure you measure your current cylinder length to confirm compatibility with the 35-50mm range. The cylinder is powered by 3 AAA batteries, which should be inspected periodically. To maintain the device, avoid using harsh chemicals when cleaning the fingerprint sensor; a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth is recommended to ensure the sensor remains clear of dust and oils. If the lock is installed on an exterior door exposed to heavy rain, ensure the area is sheltered, as prolonged direct exposure to the elements may impact battery life and sensor performance.
