This thing sucks. My unit either shuts itself off completely or does not adjust when I need it to. It has worked flawlessly for over a year. All of a sudden it just became the most annoying device in my house. My home was freezing one night and we could not adjust. A few weeks later it stayed at 85 degrees heat for a whole day during 83 degree outside weather. It is extremely unreliable and when I call John Wayne about it...they make it seem like it's me that dont know how to adjust it.

I guess if it works you like it......after one week constantly telling me power off.....funny that I didn't lose power anywhere else in my house! Then after two weeks it just quit working. Worst thermostat I've ever used. Now during the coldest time, I can't adjust the temp and it just keeps running. I can't turn it off either. I would NEVER pay for this....it came free for 2 years....I don't even want it free. Just give me a plain programmable thermostat!

The app works well, but there's no integration into Google Home or Alexa. It would be nice if it was accessible through these services to use voice commands and have everything in one place. Also, fbsdsa no way to turn off the status lights for the light switches. they can be overly bright at night when you have one in the bedroom.
