Thermostat Manager

Thermostat Manager is a SmartThings SmartApp that provides automated control over smart thermostats.

You can set temperature thresholds that define what mode you would like your thermostat to be in (heat/cool/etc.) for a specified temperature range. You use Energy Saver features to have your thermostat turn off temporarily if a contact sensor (such as a door or a window) stays open too long. Mode Based Temperature Enforcement allows you to set a specified temperature based on a SmartThings mode change (such as home or away mode). Emergency Heat Settings allow you to set emergency heat mode based on the temperature reading of an outdoor temperature sensor. You can also configure Notification Settings to give you a push notification or a text message when Thermostat Manager makes a change.
