Mine are Bluetooth enabled. You stand near it and hit the button
Neat, that shows you how often I use them! I'd be very surprised if there was no backup code option though, not everyone has a smartphone.
You wouldn't be able to pickup without a smartphone. If you are not home, you'll get a little note in your mailbox and go to a partner package shop
I feel we're talking about different things. The only Amazon lockers I'm aware of are the ones in shops, offices, and other public places where you go to pick up your parcel and can do so just with a code. Do you have your own personal one installed at your house?
No the one in talking about is installed outside without a screen.
Looks like this.

Interesting, I've never seen one like that without a screen. So do they warn you when you try to order to one of them that it will only let you pick up from it if you have their app installed?
Correct. You have to use their app. Tried using the web version but it said app only.
Wow, given that they already had lockers that your grandma could use with a code she wrote down on a piece of paper this really seems like a step backward. Clearly the extra money they hope to make from more app installs sounds more lucrative!
