Disable low light functionality

[donb1]

During low light conditions, I do not want my Hub to show either the digital clock or turn off the screen.  I want it to actually do nothing (disabled). 

Is there some way to make this happen?  If not, please make it a new feature. 

I do not know how it doesn't annoy consumers whenever room lighting goes dark, and you want to see your selected fullscreen clock instead of that generic digital clock.  Every time you turn your light on and off, it switches.  Why not just have it do nothing?

the ux is so dumb that if you turn of the display of the nest and then turn off the mic (so it stops listening), it would turn on the screen again so it can show you the "mic off" message

Its imposible for the screen to be off and the mic to be off at the same time, for me its a bug.

Lenovo Smart Clock 2 has the following setting:

• During low light: Choose the mode that the home screen will automatically switch to in the low-light environment.

Show Mono clockface

Show current clockface

Turn off the screen

If Nest Hub would implement such feature, that would be great. 🙂

Is there a URL link for feedback?  I've long since sent feedback for this via the home app.

Link states to use the Home app.  I have already long since done that more than once.

Hi donb1,

That's right. No worries, we'll make sure to take this as a feedback and let's hope that this will be available in the future.

Best,

Thank you. 

I know coding, and so I understand you cannot implement changes at the snap of a thumb.  It is just annoying how I choose a clock face, and then it reverts to the default clock face every time I turn off the room light or whenever the sun goes down.  Then whenever I come in the room and turn on the light, the clock face changes.
