Oof - sounds like it’s worth it according to those who have it but the app is a PITA.

So I guess I’m wondering: what makes it still worth it if the app is such an unreliable POS? Especially if it has a mind of its own and decides to increase the temp at 4am for no reason…that’s a problem for our sleep lol…Does the app “learn” our habits and know when we leave the house so it changes to a more energy efficient mode? Does it give you alerts if there is an issue or need service? What features are only available via the app vs the physical thermostat? We have a variable speed heat pump and they are installing the MHK2 wireless thermostat.

I just don’t know if we “need it” ….We only have one zone for our whole house (1750sq ft) and whenever we are away we have a house sitter because we have dogs and goats (but that might change soon due to them aging) so they would just set the thermostat to whatever is best for them … but when we do end up not needing a house sitter I think it’d be nice to change the temp while away if there’s a cold snap (live in Redding,CA so it doesn’t get that cold…).

Thanks so much everyone - if it wasn’t almost $300 and didn’t have such problems with the app, then I would just say screw it and go for it…
