I live in Houston and there is nothing worse than putting your AC on a comfortable 68 degrees, only to wake up sweating because the thermostat thought 80 was more ideal temperature. Thank you so much 😊
I’m having this exact problem! It’s too hot in Houston for my thermostat to keep turned to 76 when it’s 100 outside! It thinks no one is home when we’re all ASLEEP
I want to thank you for putting out this video the learning nest was driving my wife crazy because the temperature was all over the place and now that I watch your video and program successfully my wife is smiling from ear to ear
Thanks. My wife doesn't know how to use this so when she's cold she disables the A/C by just turning the temp ring to full 90 degrees. This was throwing off all of the algorithms. LOL! Followed your instructions and now we're all at peace !
Thank You! I came home yesterday and my house was 86 degrees just because nest didn't detect anyone in house while I was at work for 10+ hours! And then it took hours to cool down to 73. I never want my house to get hotter than 79. Smart my a......
Gracias. Our thermostat is behind a door, so Nest never thinks we are home and the thermostat goes down to 60! We live in Nebraska, USA (COLD winters) so we have been freezing since install because of this irritating feature. I see the vision Nest had, but turns out I'm a finicky human, so I want to figure out my ideal heat on my own. So glad to find this video and solve our problem!
I had disabled the Auto Learn feature through the app on my phone, but the Nest continued to change temperature rapidly. You showed that I ALSO need to reset the history of the thermostat (Nest Actual) Auto-Learn on the unit itself. The message boards I researched I did not see this step, and it is imperative. Thank you for this. You show the way.
I did as you suggested, and in the app the history is still there! I've done this four times. I even turned off the home/away feature. In another three days, it will start resetting itself. Suggstions?
Thanks for the simple explanation and fix. You would think the numerous hvac technicians we’ve called out from reliance would’ve been able to do this simple thing but no we’ve been dealing with this problem for years and they had no clue what they were doing.
Yes, THANK YOU! You Tube to the rescue once again! I kept deleting the "memorized settings" only to have them reappear! Today I turned the thermostat up to 76 only to have NEST turn it back down to 70!! Thanks, again for the VERY helpful video!
Same thing here. I wonder how many divorces this thing has caused? LOL. The worst thing you can do is to let all of your family members know about the phone app and then lock them out from using it when things get crazy.
Thanks. What an annoying feature. I try to set the temperature range manually and the schedule overrides me. I try to edit the schedule but it's tedious to do so, and even when I edit it, it turns out it automatically overrides me.
Third time this week we woke up to 51° !! Just got the electric bill yesterday too, instead of our normal $150ish averages , $385.91. Wtf!!! This thing was supposed to SAVE us money!! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you 🙏
Crazy Nest. I'm surprised they didn't think that the incredibly amount of time likely invested into their predictive programming was bound to be flawed and irritate the heck out of people. "A" for overall design and build quality and "C- / D+" for over designing the software and user experience.
Thank you so much for the instructions! Google could not explain in his manuals (3 generations) how to use the Dummy Thermostat manually, but you did it!
Thanks. Good explanation. I was getting ready to rip off and throw away this crap from google. I will probably still replace it with the one that doesn't think it knows better than I do.
I have had the problem with auto schedule for years... Thanks for posting the cure. I did it, now can we come up with a way that Nest does not wait for 2 to 3 degrees to come on. I am sensitive to cold and I am always telling my Amazon to turn the temp up or down, to get it to come on.
I just filled up with oil at $951.00. I don't want to complain, when Ukraine is on fire, but I really appreciated this video to show me how to turn off this auto schedule so I can keep my heat down and save oil. THANKS SO MUCH!! So easy to follow! And your joke was funny........
Man, you are a lifesaver! I couldn't figure out why my thermostat kept changing the temperature, and I've corrected the problem now everything is working how I like it.
finally, I loved coming home and having the thermostat think that 84 •F is fine when I set it to 70 it felt like every time I went out of my way to wave my hand in front of it or walk past it, I caught it with its pants down "oh snap! was I supposed to be doing my job?" just about went out and bought a cheap one so it would actually maintain a temp many thanks
There are so many things I love about the nest thermostat - it's so, so close to being perfect... but one thing I can't wrap my head around is why they do not have some type of 'temporary hold' feature for the inevitable occasions where you do not want to use auto-schedule. Just a temporary 'hold' option to bypass auto-schedule - problem solved. It's maddening! I feel like I'm fighting with the nest for control of the house when I want to do a hold - it just seems so silly to not have an override feature.
Omg! Thank you! Somehow the auto schedule was on and the temperature in the master bedroom is at 67 and the rest of the house is at 73. I just turned everything off and see if it works. So far the heater has been on going for about 45 minutes.
Thank so much. I thought I was going mad. Kept thinking who keeps changing the schedule settings? Its a great idea, if it works. I believe its supposed to take account of outside temperature. Anyway thanks to your help I'm back in control and no more heating coming on in the middle of the day when its not needed.
Hi, I am having an issue with auto schedule on my Nest. My option are YES or NO - no OFF. selecting NO followed by done and then resetting as per your clear instructions I find the auto schedule consistently reverts to YES! Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks
I live in Texas and it’s currently 105 degrees. Nothing like setting your thermostat to 70 and it auto generates to 85 You saved us from smashing the nest into pieces lol
I love how others think the entire reason for having one of these thermostats is the dumbest feature. Now trying to figure out how to set up a schedule like those simple programmable thermostats
This is different from another video where you helped me with handling my Nest thermostat in 2019. The steps are in a different order & there are fewer steps too.
Is there any way to just turn on one of two schedules without having to schedule it for the week. eg. On day heat comes on at 4am another schedule having it come on at 9am? I work a rotating schedule.
Thank you for explain! So its seems to be, that "self learning" smart feature could be very annoying and less convenient, cause the thermostat not able to adjust temperature as manual mode simply bumping up or reducing it immediately as required. Now the question is: what will waste less energy - the manual frequent adjustments (including shutdowns / boots up) or auto schedule?
@@florafaunaonlinegathering3024 What people experience (as per my observation) and me as well, that some time after manual temperature setting, the Nest by itself increases or decreases it. However never it described as "always something". Are you able to drop the temperature manually or shut down the Nest?
I live in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 …so my question is, am I able to still have heat in my house, having said that it seems you are correct in this video. Thanks
Hi just a quick question, How come you have to reset the auto schedule couldn’t you just go to nest sense and just turn it off? If I’m having one install from brand new do I still have to reset the auto schedule before able to turn the schedule off ? Thank youu
Thank you for this! I’m not a fan of this system. I brought a home in November & it had the system. I used to turning my heat or ac on and it kicks on. This 2 hour wait is killing me. My house is freezing right now! I hate this system! How can I get to blow heat consistently?!
Thank you very much for this video! With auto-learning off, if I set the Nest to start at 8am/72-degrees, will it try to remember how long it takes to reach 72 and start before 8am?

Dude, thank you so much. I’ve been fighting with this thing. We’ve been fighting with this thing for six freaking months since we bought this house.

Man oh man I’m glad I found this vid
Ditto 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Why do we need to reset it though? Can’t we skip the reset step and go directly into nest sense menu and select off?
I live in Denver where summers are hot and dry, whether is 98 or 89 degrees outside, what temperature should I set my nest thermostat to?
Ha, we just moved from there; best decision ever.
@@mariapower6961 where do you live now?

Mine does this same thing. It’s so annoying and nothing is fixing it.
Did this video work
I live in Texas and it’s currently 105 degrees. Nothing like setting your thermostat to 70 and it auto generates to 85
You saved us from smashing the nest into pieces lol
You are a god among men sir. Finally. I was losing my mind
Man, thanks. It's the middle of winter and this thing shuts off/down to 65(we never keep it at 65) in the middle of the night. Junk.
This video helped so much! What a pain to have the thermostat running all over.
Thanks a lot. I was just about to replace my “smart” Nest with the old thermostat!
You saved my life. Was about to shoot the thing
You are going to heaven for this! Thanks
Thank YOU!! I will save so much and not wake up sweating to death. I just did this easy peasy.
SO helpful! Even my AC guy doesn’t like Nest! Nearly switched to Honeywell today but aesthetically couldn’t🙄
Thanks, you rescused all of the nest thermostat owner....thanks so much.
any clues on why heat won't turn off even when you've done it on thermostat (set it to off and also tried on eco) - heat still pumps out full whack
So can you still set up a schedule after you turn off the auto schedule?
THANK YOU sooo MUCH !!!! Ive been freezing going into Autumn here in Ohio. It kept going to 68, and I needed it to be at ~72
Thank you very easy to follow directions, I will not wake up sweating again in the middle of the night
You my friend are a legend, many thanks
Here in Texas so when it would change it was so hot it would take long to get cold again thank you so much for the help
THANK YOU for the tutorial. I was about to go bonkers trying to figure out how to delete the auto-scheduler. It's so annoying! lol 😆
Thanks I hope rhis work it got hot and this thing got out of control and the house is so cold
