4.6 out of 5
App has tons of bugs, thermostat follows suit

We finished building out house about a year and a half ago and put in 4 of these thermostats. From the get-go, Resideo had difficulty recognizing the divides, syncing with them, and staying synced. After a few months of continual babysitting it seemed to straighten itself out for a while (merciful... Show more

Suddenly offline and my house is freezing

My thermostat decided to go offline at nine this evening. I live in Alaska. It’s currently zero degrees Fahrenheit outside and getting colder. This literally happened apropos of nothing. We’ve had the thermostat for years with no issues. I tried to reset the Wi-Fi on the thermostat and suddenly, my... Show more

What A MESS

I’ve had a Honeywell thermostat for three years, and until this week I’ve suffered through MULTIPLE issues that arise CONSTANTLY. If you’re looking for a WiFi thermostat stay as far away from Honeywell as possible. Customer service hours are very limited, which when you’re thermostat is out at 3AM,... Show more

Huge Performance Downgrade from TC App

TL;DR: Keep the old app, Total Connect. Too much of a delay; massive headache.

iPhone 13 Pro: Compared to the Total Connect app, this is a huge downgrade. Weather takes forever to update on the main page but my biggest gripe with Resideo is that it is VERY slow to update and respond to the... Show more

Terrible in all aspects!!

This thermostat was installed when we bought a new a/c about 3 months ago. On the colder nights we normally turn our heater on so that if the house temp drops to 75 or below the heater kicks on to maintain the 75 degree setting. EVERY time my husband or I do this we wake up in the middle of the nig... Show more

Pointless: It rarely works.

Resideo is fine, when it actually works. However, it is constantly disconnecting from the WiFi (multiple times a day). It only seems to remain connected to the WiFi when my phone is connected to the same WiFi. Now imagine if you have an upstairs and downstairs thermostat, with corresponding WiFi’s... Show more

Not updating unless restarted

Resideo is visually appealing and logically organized, but there is a major flaw. When returning to Resideo , it doesn’t reflect current settings of the thermostat unless Resideo is terminated and then relaunched.

For example: yesterday I changed the set temperature from 70 to 72 in the m... Show more

Used to work great

They have updated Resideo recently, maybe the 2nd to the last update basically messed Resideo up. Like what the others are experiencing, the scheduling function has been a nightmare since. I used to be able to change it and it will follow the schedule properly (or even if I leave the schedule alo... Show more

Has Promise but Lacks Many Features and Support

I came from a pre-Google Nest and chose Honeywell because of the large variety of thermostats to meet my various needs. Resideo was clean and simple, but after using it for almost two years, I’ve realized it’s too simple and their support doesn’t care. Resideo lately has gotten very slow. It take... Show more

Terrible geofence and tech support

I’ve had a Honeywell Lyric thermostat for a few years now and up until recently, the interface between Resideo and thermostat worked like a charm. Recently however, (since they changed to the Honeywell home app) the geofence has been sporadic at best. When I get home after 9 hours away at work to ... Show more

This App Falls Short

Shopping for the perfect thermostat for your home leaves a lot of options these days. Smart thermostats have become the standard, but they’re often only as good as their companion apps. We recently installed a completely new heating and cooling system, controlled by a feature-rich Honewell t10 ther... Show more

Great when it works

I’ve had this for probably six months now. My only complaint is that sometimes it doesn’t recognize that my wife is home. I set it to give me an alert and I keep having to turn the geofencing feature off until I get home. Aside from that quirk it is terrific.

Second complaint is data log... Show more

As needy as a 2 year old

The thermostat itself is pretty good. I don’t have any complaints. Resideo ? Well, that’s a whole different story. The constant alerts and notifications are as annoying as a toddler who is bored. They both are incessantly begging for your attention for no good reason. Why does the geofencing glitch... Show more

Has come very far from when we were first introduced to the app

Resideo was very fluid for our thermostats and with the introduction of runtime I think it was the perfect way to express a full look of heating and cooling over a period of time without having to wait for that email that was on the 20th of the month. If there could be a developer that would look ... Show more

Mediocre

First, Resideo works. I can control my thermostat from anywhere in the world (assuming my wifi works, but that’s a different review).
However, there are really two things I don’t like about it. The two main advantages of Resideo should be maintaining my programmed ‘stat while away and quick r... Show more

Inadequate app alert. Settings menu limited.

By sheer coincidence I woke up and noticed a visual water leak badge alert on my phone. I never heard an audible alert from my phone. Went to the detector and heard the alarm on the detector itself (all was dry though, so either this is extremely sensitive or it was a false alarm). I then checked R... Show more

Good idea. SUPER big riddled.

Go to create account. Can’t. End up calling tech support which is not accessible in app without sign in. They confirm it’s app error not allowing account creation. They make one for me. Go to set up water leak detector. Takes full app reboot twice in order to finally get WiFi to finish connecting o... Show more

T5 thermostat

Typically, we have zero issues with Resideo or our thermostat. Lately, it has been quite frustrating. The geofencing feature has a mind of its own and seems to work when it wants. Resideo stopped recognizing our thermostat resulting in me having to set it up again. Not a big deal, right? Well, I ... Show more

Nice app and now it’s fast too

Resideo looks pretty good and setup was easy. Programming a schedule is a bit fidgety, but I don’t need to change it often so that’s fine. After that it runs the schedule and everything operates the way it should.

Update: The issue below was bothering me for months, but customer support had... Show more

Customer Dissatisfaction = 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have had my system for two years now. This month trouble trouble trouble. I’ve had trouble last year with the thermostat on the wall go blank but the installer Royal Air said they fixed it. Now the thermostat has gone blank three times this past week and dead today. So I updated Resideo . No... Show more

Can you fix the issue with configuring your thermostat?

I am using the Lyric thermostat, and while I love the features like geofencing, and it does a great job handling the aspects of managing my AC/heating, the connecting to WiFi and configuring the thermostat is horrible! It is something that should take 5 minutes or less, but instead it has taken me... Show more

Needs a lot of improvements and definitely the customer service is lacking a lot.

Goes offline a lot like everyday and of course my other devices like ring and nest do not go offline only this one. It usually comes back on itself but when it doesn’t then I have to call. After numerous calls they still have no info on me when I do call. They don’t know what device i have nor do t... Show more

The Honeywell App for Lyric Is Absolutely Useless

We got the Honeywell Lyric thermostat because of the Honeywell reputation. Installed in our newly built home and it is a very nice looking thermostat that works fine manually. The Honeywell app for it is horrible. Can’t believe Honeywell would put out such an inferior, useless app for its product. ... Show more

Honeywell needs to get their house in order!

I have three (3) Lyric Round 2nd Gen thermostats in two (2) separate homes. Everything worked fine for a couple years with their App and HomeKit. In the last six (6) months, then Honeywell App (iOS latest) and via Apple HomeKit has failed with numerous problems almost on a daily basis!
Customer ... Show more

Not up to expectations from Honeywell

Installation of thermostat was fairly simple. Old app was more informative, the new app leaves a lot to be desired. Apple Watch app worked with the old app, but constantly says offline after the update. Emailed support, but have not received a reply. I installed this thermostat to lower my elec... Show more

Mostly good

Installation was a breeze for me. I already had the blue C wire. Not as pretty as Nest or Ecobee, but nicer than my previous Honeywell internet thermostat, and much better priced. Set-up was a breeze, as well, with zero hitches. Obviously other have had major headaches. Not sure what accounts for ... Show more

App has a lot of bugs and other

App or unit has too many issues. I just bought the Lyric T6, what I've noticed the temperature is not calibrated correctly (no option to change) I have a thermometer next to thermostat and its off by 1 degree. Also, I notice the temperature just up or down within seconds, when its not possible. ... Show more

Thanks for the improved notifications

UPDATE: looks like notifications can now be sent as text messages (if you use your phone carrier’s special email address that forwards to text). Thank you! Adding a star.

The issue is with the Resideo app. It was working well until I switched to the new Apple phone. The app no longer updates the temp outside or inside the home. You have to keep logging in and logging out. This doesn’t help when I’m away from home and if the heat suddenly goes out, especially a cold w... Show more

I can only sum up the app in 1 word USELESS

Patricia Merry

I just had to connect my T5 WiFi thermostat to a new email account. Since that the Resideo app won’t allow me to control my thermostat. It will only display the current weather from AccuWeather. Before this I was happy with the app. Now it’s useless to me.
