All smart locks can be controlled remotely using Google Assistant. However, only a few smart locks can work as standalone smart locks for Google Home. The Google Nest x Yale Smart Lock can be used independently of any hubs or bridges and connects directly to your Wi Fi network. This smart lock is our top pick, and even more so if you have other Nest products. The Igloohome Deadbolt 2S works strictly on Bluetooth. This means that you won't have the ability to control it from outside, but you can use Google Assistant to manage it from within your home. Although this may sound negative, Igloohome chose Bluetooth to minimize the possibility of Wi-Fi disruption or hacking. You can still grant access to Airbnb guests or friends with Bluetooth keys or PIN codes. Use a bridge to connect your smart lock
