SO Stat is fine, install easy. Looks great. It is just alot dumber than you would hope. Note I have a NEST in our other place and it has the same problems. So it is great if you have a regular life and can program it. If you don't have a schedule (ie retired) then it is not so much help and you end up fighting it - 'yes I really am home' (no I don't share phone location by choice) So in the end I just set home,away, sleep to the same temp. I'd also like a stat that was smarter about switching from AC to heat. Not a problem I am sure in most places but in our part of FL it is common to heat at night and AC in the afternoon. System requires a 5 degree minimum between Heat an AC - too broad. It does however switch automatically unlike my manual stat. Finally, I'd like a stat that considered the humidity in making temp choices. Think of those temp/humidity wall thermometers with the 'comfort zone' spelled out. If the humidity is low 80 is fine if the humidity is high 80 is oppressive but the stat isn't bright enough to consider humidity at all I do like being able to control from away and it is nice that shows in the WYZE app with everything else. Now if I could just figure out how to reorder items in the list.
This thermostat reads 4 degrees F higher than my old one and the temperature correction setting does not work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have a very simple gas heater with no air conditioning and I could not get the thermostat to work. Tried everything. Had one in my other house with a complete HVAC system and it worked great. ????

For the most part works great. Like the integration with the app. For whatever reason, the language is all messed up in the unit. Attempted to reset. See pic
Keeps disconnecting from internet. Can no longer control while away from home, which was the whole point.

The thermostat overall is a great unit. Small, compact with all the options you could ask for. Easy to install and setup. Can be changed while on the road (or monitored). I also have one Wyze sensor to go with it and it works awesome.
I still need some more time for thorough testing, but so far it is working well. I'm not 100% sure if it's controlling my multi-stage cooling properly but for the most part it is keeping that house the correct temperature. (I haven't extensively tested the heating, obviously) Sometimes it can be a bit stubborn to take updates to the schedule, and it has shown as 'offline' a couple times when it was working fine. I don't care for the UI for controlling the temperature, as it feels a bit clunky to scroll the temp up and down. Overall I think it's a great unit, that could maybe use a few software improvements that I'm hopeful they will get to.
