☕ Literally buy me a coffee if this video helped! Thanks so much!! www.buymeacoffee.com/beforeyoubuy

Need WiFi to operate this???

This is very helpful. However, I don't understand the Auto. Will it switch from Heat to Cool if the temperature outside heats up from a night time in the 50s to 70s during the day?

Do you have to use the white plate behind the thermostat?

@beforeyoubuy Can you talk about the fan control? I use my current Nest allows me to only run the fan on a schedule during the night which i love. Can you do the same with the wyze? or is it only a set amount of time per hour 24 hrs per day?

Hey buddy, I’m having issues with the thermostat overnight, the current temperature is inconsistent and changes for example from 62 to 65/66within seconds and it’s triggering my furnace every 5 mins which is set to cooling at 64, it’s very frustrating, I have my old thermostat and it’s sensor is showing a consistent temperature

Great video!!!, I just got Wyze thermostats today, and installed the one in the 2nd floor, I’m playing around with the app, just curious, where did you read those details about the behaviors??

Still can't get mine installed. Support is a nightmare. I have to get expert help or continue 'at my own risk'. Not what they sold. They sold 20 minute installs anyone could do. Once they have your money, it becomes professionals required or risk your home. Fraud!

I am having issue with setting the schedule . I set it up to be Out at 8 am, Home by 6 pm and Sleep at 11.30. Both thermostats follow the Home and Sleep time block but ignore Out. What could be amiss ?

Great video, are your times when the heat kicks on accurate. I just got mine today and was wondering that. I had some issues installing mine but have them sorted thanks to the people in the wyze forum. What a great resource. My issues were the heat and air were turning on at the same time. I found that when installing the C adapter I had two wires on the Y in the furnace panel and only one of them was supposed to go to the c adapter, not both. My red one that came from my air conditioner needed to stay on the furnace panel in the Y spot. Also, I found my temperature sensor was off by 4 degrees. Luckily wyze has a way to calibrate this in the app settings and that fixed it. And last but not least Wyze needs to change the schedule to allow for a Heat schedule and a Cool schedule. Having only an auto-schedule where the heat and cool temperature have to be separated by 5 degrees is just useless. If you want to have an auto mode 90% of us can't use you have to add a heat and cool schedule that is separate. As it is now I have to reset my heat and cool schedule every season. Even my 20-year-old thermostat had more functionality than that. At least on that old thing, I could just flip the switch to cool or heat for the season and it was programmed into it.

explain how to set temperature preferences please

Good video! Do people really set rules and schedules for their thermostat? Wouldn't it be more costly raising and lowering the temp all the time? Everytime your house changes temp, the ac/heat has to cool or heat the house again. Why not set a temp and leave it. Regardless if you're home or not, having to make your unit heat or cool is harder on your system than just leaving it alone.

My schedule for thermostat isn’t working. No other ways to get the manual from wyze. Help :)

I found that using the Auto mode may interfer with manually changing the temp at the device. I couldn't increase the Heat temp beyond the preset temp. After changing the mode from Auto to Heat the temp could be increased. Apparently the preset temps for heat and cool were set too close to each other, which prevented the increasing of the heat temp. I still don't understand the Away state and how it works in relation to the Home/Sleep states. What automatically activates and deactivates the Away? How does the motion sensor change the setting from or to the Away state. And does the location of the phone change the state? I'll also post this on the Wyze forum for comments.

I also live in Iowa and just ordered my thermostat today. Thanks

Great Video. What is the difference between Schedule and Temperature Preferences.

I don't have an Alexa Dot or Show but my Fire Tv Stick has Alexa built in. I am able to view my Wyze Cam V2 on my TV using Alexa on the Fire Stick. Can I use Alexa commands on my Fire TV Stick to control the Wyze Thermostat?

How to turn off wyze thermostat, it's not turning off keep running fan.

even nicer can you set it up with alexa dot .

Great video! Wyze really should give detailed operating instructions. The temperature preferences language is confusing. When I select the “Above” and “Below” settings what exactly does that mean? For example on my Home settings when I select the values for “Heat to” and “Cool to” what does it mean? Right now its set to Heat to 68 and Cool to 76; does that mean the heat will kick in when the temperature reaches 68 degrees and the AC/Cooling will kick in when the temperature reaches 76 degrees? Also, How do I set a simple Auto setting for temperature? Ex: If I want it to maintain a stable temperature of 74?

I love my WYZE thermostat. . . I am using the C-wire adapter with no issues. . . I had an Ecobee that failed and there are only one/ a few current feature/s I miss..... Solid B for an early release at this price point with even more promise if they continue to work on features/firmware!

I'm currently on a short vacation from home, therefore I set the thermostat to Away. I've checked the system a few times via the app and have found it reset to Home. No one is at home to activate the motion sensor, which would reset it to Home (I think). And I understand the location of my phone away from my home will set it to Away (which will upset my wife if she is still at home. Can this be turned off?). Last night I set the system to Hold instead of Away and this seems to be working to keep the system (heat) from coming on until it reaches the set temp. I'm still a bit confused on how the system works in relation to the settings of Home, Away and Sleep. It's not as intuitive as it appears. Wyze needs to come out with a definitive guide to the complete programming via the App and actual device (thermostat) and the relationship between both. Overall this is a great device and I'll appreciate it more when I completely understand it.

Would u be able to do a video about what it means to heat to and then to cook too that kind of confuses me to be honest.

Another greatly informational video Scott....I too have had mine for about a week and it's working great....great product for a ridiculously low price.....well done.

Hi fantastic video again I did pre ordered the Wyze Thermostat sent it to my family address in the US and they shipped it to the UK and it works on my gas fired water heater because my heater was multi voltage I think that why plus I had a electrician to fit it wasn’t that expensive £50 plus I have pre- ordered the new Wyze watch and the new security alarm got it for free if I paid 12 months in advance for the prescription that’s what I did keep up the good work

Hi, please recommend which model of massager to take. This model "YUNMAI PRO Basic" or this usposts.info/vision/np3bvdudmpuQaZU/video

Can you do a video about Alexa voice commands if any at all

How do you setup the color...mine do not have the orange color????

Any information on second stages for heat would be helpful.I would like to be able adjust when my heat strips kick on.

Another great video. I just got this for Christmas and you are making this nice and easy for me. Thanks very much. Keep them coming.
