Problem
Wyze Lever Lock is not automatically locking after a certain amount of time has passed.
Note: Wyze Lever Lock does not have a built-in gyroscope, so it is unable to detect the door’s position. Due to this, the Auto-Lock feature will only trigger based on time.
Troubleshooting

- In your Wyze app, navigate to the Account tab > tap About.
- Your current app version will be listed beneath the Wyze logo.
