Well, I learned some interesting stuff today. Mainly, that if you don't want to control everything from your phone, you can go to home.nest.com and access your thermostat with your Google account! In those settings I found something interesting, even though Home/Away Assist is turned off, my thermostat was still checked. So I unchecked it:
Notice how the Nest thinks that we're "away" because there's "no activity in the house." Is this because I don't have my phone set up to indicate activity, so it doesn't have anything to go on except people walking past the thermostat? Anyway, I think maybe this is why it was trying to set an Eco temperature, even though I have that disabled. Going to keep an eye on it and see if it happens again.
Well...I may have a solution. Ever since I made sure that the eco stuff and all that is completely turned off, the thermostat has mostly been following the schedule. Another great thing I learned today on home.nest.com though - you can look at the temperature changes throughout the day and see what triggered them:
Now I know that my husband has been, in fact, changing the temperature at the thermostat. Worse than any software bug, those spouses! 😂
