WYZE thermostat OFFICAL response to bluetoth issue?

[rohrermeister]

HELP! I really want to like the thermostat. Thank you to all who have shared tips and tricks to get the thermostat installed. The Bluetooth connection is failing for me.

Has WYZE issued any official statement other than try a Iphone to connect the thermostat? This is a unacceptable response as a solution. Will there be an update that can resolve this?
If I can’t connect with my Pixel 4A its getting shipped back.

A Thermostat needs to work, period, especially in December.

The initial BT connection is just to finish the setup, just use another device besides the pixel, my pixel 2 was failing as well. Tried my son’s moto e6 and it went through instanly, after that youre good to go/ control it with your phone.

Thermostat bluetooth issue

Maybe this is the unclear answer. Because my phone’s location is rarely on unless I leave the house. However my other devices and wife keep their location on. Can anyone else let other’s know if this is the likely solution?

I enabled BT and Location on my phone and the Thermostat connected. Thanks for the suggestion.
