When Geofencing is turned on for a time block in your Smart Schedule, this time block will become active only if tado° is in Home Mode.

If you turn Geofencing off, the time block will become active regardless of the Home members’ location and irrespective of whether tado° is in Home or Away Mode.

This is useful if, for example, you want to make sure that your home is at a specific temperature, at a specific time, even when none of the residents with a smartphone is at home. For instance, if you have a cleaner or kids at home without a smartphone or without the tado° app.

To change this setting:

  • Go to the Room Screen of your choice in the tado° app and tap the Smart Schedule icon in the upper right corner of the screen.

  • Tap on the relevant time block and go to Advanced Settings.

  • Toggle Geofencing off.

  • Repeat for all relevant time blocks.
