I recently encountered an issue with my Nuki Smart Lock where the auto-unlock feature would play a sound upon activation without sending a push notification. After some research and experimentation, I found a way to disable the sound while still maintaining the functionality of the auto-unlock feature. Here’s how I resolved it:
-
Understanding the Issue: The Nuki app was configured to unlock the door when I entered my geofenced ‘Home’ zone. While this worked seamlessly, the accompanying sound and vibration were intrusive, especially at night.
-
Exploring Settings: I delved into the Nuki app settings to see if there was an option to disable the sound without affecting the auto-unlock functionality. After some trial and error, I discovered that adjusting the notification settings could help.
-
Solution: I found that by modifying the notification preferences within the app, I could suppress the sound while still receiving visual notifications. This adjustment allowed me to maintain the convenience of auto-unlock without the disruptive audio alerts.
-
Outcome: This tweak significantly improved my experience with the Nuki lock. It now operates silently upon auto-unlock, providing a seamless and unobtrusive smart home experience.
If anyone else is facing a similar issue, I recommend checking the notification settings within your Nuki app. It’s a simple adjustment that can make a big difference in daily use. Happy locking!
