Custom Sensor Schedule Times

v73c — Wed, 22 Dec 2021 15:35:21 GMT

I find the rigid Nest sensor schedule to be way too restrictive. I don't want the 'Night' time to end at the 7:00 a.m. Why can't this schedule be flexible? It should be an option in addition to the schedule that someone else mandates.

You can change it. You can only change the start, as I recall, even though it appears you should be able to change the start and stop.

No. For the sensor schedule, there are only 4 pre-defined times (morning, midday, evening, and night). You can't schedule it to change from sensor A to sensor B at a certain time like you do with the temperature.

I disagree.

This has been on ongoing issue for me for years

Please fix this. I have searched for an update on this topic every few months for the last 2+ years.

There continues to be no control for selecting the times for the sensors other than the preset times.

My wife is so unhappy how freezing cold it is in the living room in the mornings when she gets up at 5am with my children to get ready for school.. I don't get up that early so it's impossible to have the temperature where it needs to be at the appropriate times.

15+ year old 'dumb' thermostats can be set up to do this from the thermostat, there is no excuse!

Wake up Google/Nest team, give us some control over this or find a solution.

It's been years where people have been asking for this ability.

And here I am once again awake at 5:30am, with my unhappy wife, searching for a solution to only see the same stuff for years. No ability, no solutions, no conversation from someone at Google/Nest.

Every response from a Specialist/ Forum Moderator seems to be a bot/AI canned response: Dear 'so and so', thank you for your feedback about 'insert topic here'. The team at Google/Nest is working hard at delivering quality solutions to its customers. I just wanted to check in with you on 'insert topic here' and see if I can support you or if you had anymore questions.

EVERY SINGLE RESPONSE IS NEARLY IDENTICAL.

Stop this, please find a solution.
