Basic functions were inaccessible and complicated.

setup is too complicated. we, the user, were not authorized to enable auto heat/cool mode and scheduling. what's the point in having a programmable stat if you can't do automatic scheduling? Some functions are available only by cell phone; all functions should be easily available by the touchscreen. the stat does a lot of things which few people needs, but the most useful energy-efficient functions are hard to access and set up. our previous Honeywell programmable stats, without cell phone access, were better.
Was leery of this thermostat because of all the poor reviews regarding wifi connectivity problems. Two months in and we haven’t had a single issue. The Resideo app is the bomb though! Flawless remote access to get alarms and check and change settings. Very helpful when traveling or make adjustments remotely.
I like the wi-fi ones "alot better " Recomend spend the extea to put in the rooms that you definitely want to no the tempture or to turn up or down from your phone ..these you can not These are hard to program <-- Once you learn - then they work great in a room that you dont need to think about if the tempeture is nessesery important in
