The Nuki Keypad 2 NFC adds Apple Home Key tap-to-unlock support to Nuki's retrofit smart lock, bringing it on par with competitors like the Aqara U200, but in a sleeker, more compact design. I walk through setup with the Nuki app, Apple Home, and Wallet, plus real-world performance testing on my parents' front door through unpredictable Chicago spring weather. If you're looking for a Matter-compatible retrofit deadbolt with Apple Home Key, fingerprint, and passcode access without changing your existing keys, this could be your best option.
