I've re-registered my fingers many times, tried different fingers, always the same very inconstant results for both my wife and I. We do have the z-wave version which I doubt has a different scanner in it.
I do like the overall look and functionality of the base keypad lock and would buy it again. I'd avoid the extra expense of the fingerprint reader as it's just too low quality. We have the z-wave (not part of this sale).

has the Updated version of this lock (inbuilt WIFI, No WIFI adapter required)
Which one is better ?
That is the biggest downside of these old units. If you don't have a plug near your door you are sol.

Auto lock is a game changer, I love it. It's all auto lock and fingerprints for me. Wifi bridge is cool but realistically I've never needed to use it.

First, the end of the deadbolt (the part inside the door hole) was a bit bigger than my previous door hole. I had to dig out a little of the door to accommodate the extra piece at the end of it. I also had to dig a deeper hole into the place where the deadbolt slides in to. It requires about 1.1" and my previous Schlage smart lock fit in like .90"
Then once I got the lock installed it wouldn't stop opening and closing automatically. I was in the app trying to add a user and it must have locked and unlocked 15 times. Sadly the beep sound it makes (which you can disable and I have now) is irritating and hearing it go off 30 times in a row was frustrating and it also is the same tone that my dog strongly dislikes. He gets really bad anxiety with certain beeps.
I've contacted support and they may be sending me a replacement, but I'm still within my woot return policy, so I might just do that instead. I'm not sure if I will replace it with the same lock if I go that route. I might go back to my Schlage.
The lock would constantly say jammed and not function whether the door was opened or shut. I disconnected the wire from the outside to the inside and removed the batteries. Waited a bit and reconnected it. It would work a couple of times and then say jammed again. The lock itself has no blockage and slides in and out manually just fine. I then loosened the screws in the middle under the main unit as that was a recommended fix. Then putting it all back together it worked again for a couple of tries before saying jammed.
Anyways I left town for a couple days and when I was back the lock magically started functioning properly, for the most part. It's been a little over a week since I've had a jam, but if you have a jam you're SOL if you don't have another way in the house.
I'm also having issues with the auto-unlock feature. It will auto-unlock when I'm in the garage, or sometimes when I'm inside the house and walk near the door, but if I stand in front of my door it will not auto-unlock, I've stood there for a couple of minutes, way longer than i would be willing to normally. So I have to use the fingerprint sensor, which I will say has worked great for me so far.
Being I don't trust this lock to work every time, I'm not sure I am keeping it. I only have a couple more days to decide!
