Hi Donna, I, too, have the Nest thermostat, and yes, the app is pretty straight forward. Like you, I particularly like the fact that wherever I am in the house I can adjust the temperature as needed. My only complaint so far is that I can’t use the schedule feature, but have to keep adjusting the temperature for days until the thermostat learns what I want it to do. When you used the app, did you ever try working the schedule? I also do have the Google app, but haven’t looked into using that one with my thermostat. I’ll take any ideas or suggestions.
