Smart thermostat not following the schedule you set
Your thermostat's clock is wrong or the schedule is turned off in the app. Check that the time on the thermostat matches your phone and that the schedule toggle is actually on. This fixes it in under a minute.
When a smart thermostat ignores its schedule, it's because the clock is out of sync or the schedule feature is turned off. The thermostat can't follow a schedule if it doesn't know what time it is, and some apps turn the schedule off by accident when you change settings. We'll sync the time and make sure the schedule is enabled.
