Official statement from August:

@OldSurferDude

Unfortunately, as of right now, Z-Wave connectivity for August Smart Locks has been discontinued and is no longer supported; existing connections with other devices that were already setup may stop working with no way to re-pair them. Now these devices are only operable through Bluetooth and Wi-Fi via the August app, We understand your concern and once again we sincerely apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.
