Setting up a 2nd iPhone to control thermostat

[F3too]

I've tried setting up a 2nd iPhone to control the 2 Nest thermostats.  The problem comes when I go to either t-stat to get the Nest # from the t-stat to enter into the 2nd  iPhone, there is no #.  Same occurs on the other t-stat.  What am I doing wrong?

You need to use the FAMILY feature if the Nest App to share the thermostat control.  To find this launch your Nest App and touch the setting gear in the upper right corner.  Tap it, and scroll down to FAMILY.

Hello folks,

I wanted to ensure that everything was covered here.

@CoolingWizard, thanks for the help!

@F3too, I hope you've got the answer you're looking for, explained by CoolingWizard. If you don't want to add another home member, you can still use other mobile devices, but make sure to login with the same email address associated with your thermostat so it will automatically appear on the home screen. Also, I found a helpful article on how to add another home member, and if you're still in need of any assistance, feel free to let us know.

Thanks,

Mark
