You have a unique code, don't they already have a log of your coming and goings?

But I would absolutely not install an app for that.

They do. But the apartment complex gets a nice little kickback, especially since an app for unlocking your front door is one that has at least a plausible argument for having your location, which means a whole bunch of location data that can be mined/sold/both.

Usually smart lock does not have network connection(due to using battery).

But the app on your phone does not have that limitation.
