Does a front door lock exist where I can approach my house and 1. Open my door without removing my iPhone from my pocket, 2. that has a keypad for numbered access and 3. that additionally locks when I leave the house without interacting with the lock or my iPhone.

I want a lock with all three of these features. Not August—which doesn't have all three.

The Schlage SmartSense does except for the first part. But that is due to Apple Security reasons. 1. You can have a location based trigger that will run to unlock the lock. You do have to unlock the iPhone and authorize the script to run. 2. It does have a keypad on the front for unlocking. You can set it up with up to 6 digits code. Can have a code for each person. 3. Using the Schlage app you can set a time delay for auto locking the lock. Several different settings. 
I use the geofence to unlock the door on arrival. Easy to just pull out the iPhone and unlock it and click ok on the script to run. Can do the same with watch. I use the auto lock feature all the time. Have it set for 2 minute delay. Never have to worry about it at all. Has never failed for me. Plus with Homekit I can unlock the door from anywhere if needed to let someone enter.
Real happy with the lock
