I want to be able to control my thermostat from my phone, so I’m looking for recommendations for one that meets the following:

  • Works with no network access (as in, I can access it but it can’t access anywhere else, enforced via VLAN on my firewall)
  • Lets me control my single apartment thermostat (temperature, heat/cool, maybe programming but it’s okay if I have to do that on the unit directly)
  • Not hundreds of dollars
  • No microphone

Any thoughts? Really just want something simple.

Edit: I have no other smart home devices right now, if that matters.

    It also knows when you’re home based on the occupancy sensors. I’m also not worried with their data collection so, mine is also not blocked from internet access.
