I just set up this ZWave smart lock from Phillips.

It's actually really fantastic. There's no app, you don't have to sign up for anything, it's all local and works perfectly with Home Assistant.
I swapped out my old Yale Lock with this model. What a breath of fresh air. I just love the fact that I didn't need a damn app and have to give my email/phone number to sign up for something I don't need.
One of the things I am missing is being able to remotely add users (or maybe I just haven't figured that out yet). The setup for fingerprints and guest codes has to be done at the lock.
All in all, I'm super happy with it and just the fact that I no longer have to rely on Yale's crappy app and service.
