Recent reviews

Why does my thermostat need an app just to figure out what time it is? And why does the app need to know where I am in order to make a bluetooth connection?

Ch*****, 2026-08-31

works great except the programming. it's difficult using the wake up and when do you leave for scheduling. I just want on and off scheduling. And I'd like to only do it for one day sometimes. It won't let you do that, seems it wants you to commit to a week schedule. so I'm on the app all day. I didn't have that issue with the 20 year old hunter thermostat I replaced. I thought I would be able to set temps as I wanted them to be throughout the day. but no. even the vacation setting was no good
