Honestly this is what most of us want.

I feel that while Nest changed the whole scene, it never lived up to its “smart” thermostat promise.

And the schedule editor is way too cumbersome. Something like the above is what most people would use.

The schedule editor in the Nest App is “way too cumbersome”? I found it one of the most intuitive and just flexible enough editors of the various ones I tried (a relative judgment, and it was well past good enough in absolute terms).

I meant the part where you have to copy paste each day to get the same schedule.

For a given day it’s easy.

That's a fair point.

When I noticed that hitch in the setup process, I found the solution more clever and elegant rather than cumbersome, but the fact that I specifically recall that step from 18+ months ago means that it definitely stuck out and I bumped into it. In any case, it was leagues less cumbersome than "push this button a bunch of times to change whichever field is blinking, then tap this button to change which field is blinking" of older T-stats.

Oh 100% agree. It's still better than the crappy old-school thermostats. I wasn't even trying to compare it to those. I just expect more out of the software given that the hardware was pretty nice.

But does anyone leave the "learning" part on? I turned it off a few weeks after I got it, and never used it again.
