This lock is pretty sturdy and seems like it’s well-built. I like how you can have the pins only work during specific times. After the pin is entered in you have to remember to press the unlock button to activate it. I was able to test and confirm the one time use pin along with the master and Bluetooth unlocking methods. Hard coding pins is possible too and they can be shorter than the master’s pin. Pins can be randomly generated through the app and then sent via your phone’s preferred sharing methods like text/e-mail/social media, etc. Access to others can be granted through permanent, one-time, duration, or recurring pins. Alternatively, you can use the master pin, which has to be between 7-9 digits. The Bluetooth unlocking method is quite simple and you can do so by tapping the lock’s name in the app if you’re in range. From here, you can also delete all the pins, view the access summary, and delete the lock from your phone. In the settings menu you can adjust the number of attempts before a triggering a lock out, the volume, and auto relock.
The app recommends changing the batteries every 9 months if not required to do so sooner. In the app you can see the battery charge level which is important. Once you log in you’ll have to name and activate your lock by pressing a button, and pairing it is seamless. You’ll have to register an account and verify the e-mail address used for it.

Lock the padlock and test it out by using the default code of 1234567890. It’s a tight fit and I had to use the cover to push the battery into its final resting place.

Your first order of business will be to unlock/open it, use the torx screwdriver to open up the battery hatch, and then install the included CR2 battery. Setting up the padlock is relatively simple.
Access can be restricted and revoked all through the phone app. You can also set up your own pin as well as ones for other friends and family members. For starters, it can unlock automatically via Bluetooth when your smartphone is within range. The Igloohome Smart Padlock has many cool features. I probably would have to have the bike lock clipped and get some suspicious stares in the process and possibly tapped on the shoulder by a nearby police officer. What if the stakes were higher? What if I forgot the combination on my bike lock after not using it during the winter months? I wouldn’t have the luxury of using another method of payment like I did with my locked out ATM card. I didn’t realize I could have assigned the pin number at the bank, otherwise I would have done it much sooner and before locking out my ATM card! After months of not using my ATM debit card with an assigned pin, I maxed out the number of failed attempts and had to go to the bank to get it reset. I struggle with remembering assigned pin numbers. Thank you Igloohome for sending us a loaner review sample!
