Any plans on incorporating the Nest Thermostat?

Hi Fredo,

We've looked into supporting the Nest, however, the Nest does not support 3rd parties connecting to their back-end. We can technically do it, but this isn't supported, could change at any time, and they could block us from using their back-end without permission. In short, it's risky for us to take this on without official support from Nest.

The best thing you and other Nest owners can do is to contact Nest as a Nest owner and let them know that you would like to be able to use their product with other 3rd party interfaces like MobiLinc. If you request that they offer official 3rd party support, this will go a long ways to communicating the demand for something like this to them.

Wes,

What is the most reliable Thermostat that is supported by MobiLinc?

Hi Fredo,

The INSTEON thermostat (7-Day) is a good thermostat as long as you don't have a heat pump system:

Otherwise, the Venstar does well for all systems:
