Review summary

Chirp Access is plagued by crashes, unreliable lock access, and connectivity problems (Bluetooth/Wi‑Fi). Users report slow or failed unlocks, inability to find/connect to locks, and frequent app freezes. Backup entry methods are missing, raising security concerns if the phone is lost. Usability issues and poor troubleshooting guidance compound the frustration. A small subset notes occasional positives (public locks sometimes work, some call it 'good' or 'great'), and there is interest in watch support. Overall, reviews indicate a need for major reliability and UX improvements.
Pros
  • Occasional functionality with public locks (some reviews indicate it works decently with public locks in certain scenarios).
  • A few users describe the app as 'good' or 'great' in isolated reviews.
  • Watch compatibility is mentioned as a desired feature (e.g., Samsung Watch support).
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and freezing; reliability issues are echoed across many reviews.
  • Unreliable lock/unlock connectivity (Bluetooth/Wi-Fi), including failure to find or connect to locks and slow lock discovery.
  • No backup entry methods (no keys, fobs, or PIN alternatives) and security concerns if the phone is lost or broken.
  • Poor usability and UX (difficult troubleshooting, confusing UI, errors, and inconsistent behavior).

Latest update (end of July/early August 2026) has succeeded in making it more frustrating/laborious to unlock a front door. Congrats, you did it! 🤦🏼‍♀️ I now get random errors - none of which are the same reason/code - whenever I try unlocking the door. I force stop on the app, restart my phone, turn off WiFi, etc and then feature will randomly work. No clear winner on what bandaid makes it eventually work. Guess same as always - fate. Building access much more reliable. Why? Who knows.

Application keeps crashing and the logs have not saved anything new since last month. I'm glad the door has a keypad at least but the log feature is helpful and even that failed
