I like this, though it can be inconsistent in the programming. Sometimes I will change the temperature and it will say it's heating to X in Y minutes but then not start. When I check the app, it's still set to the previous temp. I also wish that the Rules included setting the mode to Auto, rather than just heat or cold. I have the thermostat set to go off if the front or back door are left open, and having it turn back to Auto when the doors are closed rather than just hot/cold would be nice.
So far like it a lot. Set up was easy, using the c-wire adaptor was quick and fixed an issue I was having my existing c-wire. Works great and love the ease it is to use
It’s not as sleek-looking as the Nest. However, I love the Wyze ecosphere, being able to use one app, set schedules, and control everything that I need. Best feature is controlling the fan separately with a schedule. I run the fan 20 minutes every hour even when the system is not cooling or heating, which circulates air in the home. Great function!
Wasted 4 hours trying to get it to work in house #1. It powered up and found the network and was visible on the app. But, when I tried to turn on the heat it would turn back off after a few seconds. Not clear if it was a wiring error or a broken product. So, I gave up. Just tried to use in in another location and it is not compatible. This is a simple old system that has been in place for 0ver 40 years. A simple 4 wire thermostat. But no. What are the odds that it would not work in 2 systems?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great design, intuative app. I like the optional oversized back plate that is included in the kit. Mine has been online for 1 month or so with the only hitch being; I left the app up on my phone and accidentally cranked the heat up to 90°, I woke up in the middle of the night sweating...operator error.
My install required the extra constant 24v line from the boiler to the thermals. Luckly the original wiring had unused conductors and I was able to google the install adaption. So not to much trouble there, just an extra 30 min. or so in research and work at the boiler.
I plan on swapping all my units to this Smart Thermostat.
