Google Wallet now supports digital home keys, enabling Android users to unlock compatible smart locks by tapping their phones or approaching them. This feature is currently in public preview via the Google Home app and will be available to all users in the coming weeks.
The update utilizes NFC and UWB technology, allowing multiple locks to be managed with a single digital key. Compatibility is limited to specific smart locks and requires a Matter-enabled Google Hub, with further support expected for additional devices in the future.
