Google Wallet is rolling out digital home keys for compatible smart locks, starting with Google Home Public Preview users. Wider availability is planned over the coming weeks.

Phones running Android 9 or later can use NFC to tap to unlock. Supported phones and locks with Ultra Wideband can unlock on approach. A single key links to Google Home and works across compatible Aliro locks, syncing to compatible Android phones on the same Wallet account.

Launch support includes Aqara u400, Schlage Sense Pro and Nuki Keypad 2 NFC. Schlage supports NFC initially, with Ultra Wideband to follow; Wear OS watches are excluded at launch.
