Hi Alejandro Dotras,
 
You can't turn that feature off, I'm afraid. However this help article explains how it works and how you may be able to adjust it (i.e. where your thermostat is physically installed does matter.)

Kind of a critical feature somebody MIGHT think to either FIX or at least mention! I would  NOT have bought this if I had know it was a random night light illuminating my bedroom.

Hey Ezepp, 

 

Thanks for posting and I'm sorry if you feel that way. 

 

If you have the 3rd gen Nest Learning Thermostat, you could disable Farsight. Take a look at this link for more information as well as the steps on how to do so: https://bit.ly/385QDbf
