A new app will now come to its users' aid if they get locked out of their own homes.
The August Smart Lock, crafted by Yves Behar, has keys that are just some code executed by a phone and users can use its app to send keys to anyone, reported The Verge.
The app can also be used to send temporary keys that can self-destruct at user's command.
August co-founder and CEO Jason Johnson said that almost two million people get locked out of their own homes in New York and since the smartphone is basically welded to users' hands today, it was time to try using it instead of an analog lock and key.
