Kwikset’s smart lock app now works with Apple CarPlay.

The update — which also adds Android Auto support — allows owners to lock or unlock Kwikset smart locks directly from their vehicle’s dashboard. It’s not the first door lock to be accessible in CarPlay, but there aren’t many around. You can find out more about supported devices and setup here.
