This makes no sense as a cost reduction. Amazon drivers in my area don't even come to my door. Let alone knock. With this they want their drivers to: 1. Come to door 2. Knock 3. Wait a moment for response 4. Unlock door with app 5. Open Door 6. Drop package 7. Close and lock door

Delivery has turned into minimizing every excess second. I wager within a few months most of these amazon keys will be ignored as they leave packages on the driveway. I wouldn't buy this unless it comes with a guarantee it will be used.

It does make sense for cost reduction because they are liable if they lose the package
