Use outside temperature to determine Heat/Cool mode

[danc4498]

I do not like using the heat/cool mode because the range is too high. I want to set my temperature to 70, and regardless of the "mode", I'd like my house to stay at 70. I understand, however, that it isn't that simple for the thermostat to just switch between heat and cool and keep the house constantly at the same temperature, which is why a mode needs to be set, or a range to keep the temperature between.

I would like to suggest, as a solution, for nest to use the outside temperature as a gauge for whether to have the house in "Cool" or "Heat" mode. If the outside temperature is below what I have my thermostat set to, then turn on "Heat" mode. If the outside temperature is above what I have set, then turn on "Cool" mode.

This way I can just set my thermostat to 70 and not have to worry about switching between heat and cool, and also I wouldn't have to deal with such a large range of temperatures.

I might have done that once before. I'll do it again to be safe.
