Nest learning thermostat

[Mountain-goat]

If I am away for a few days and eco mode comes on automatically and I want to have the house warmed to the set temperature before I get home can I set HOME/AWAY to HOME remotely in advance of my arrival back home and that will switch off AWAY and return to the normal temperature setting? I am assuming it will show on the app as AWAY once it has detected that is the situation. I've only had the Nest for 4 days so I am equally learning it's settings etc.

If not, is there another way to achieve that objective?

Thanks.

Hey there,

I wanted to follow up and see if I could be of any help. I found an article with more details on the Home/Away mode. Please let me know if you have any questions from here, as I would be happy to take a closer look and assist you further. 

Best regards,
Jake

Hi Jake

I have experimented with the app whilst being away from the house and I can change the mode to HOME even when I am away from the house and it's on ECO which is good. I also found through google that I had a setting I needed to change for it to work HOME & AWAY properly, Location, Permissions had to be set to  Allow all the time. I also have the Home app installed and the same setting had to be changed for that and since then it all seems to work as expected.

Thanks again for your help. Kind regards, Geoff
