Is there a way to disable the motion sensor for my Nest Learning Thermostat as it is kinda annoying to have it lit up every time I pass by.

Hey folks, 

 

Ashepherdson, thanks for your answer and for the step by step guide. 

 

RE2, it's odd that you're unable to find the setting on your app but we're glad to hear that you've managed to turn it off via the actual thermostat display. Feel free to let us know if you have further questions here. 

 

Best, 

Melba
