This.
I really liked the Nest thermostat in my last home. I found the "learning" or "automatic" feature was kind of sporadic and didn't work to my needs. That said, you can schedule your temps to your personal schedule which was a great feature. The phone app allowed you to get your A/C going hours ahead of time if you are coming home from a vacation or something. Also, if you want to adjust the temp but don't feel like getting out of bed or off your arse, it was great.
New house has a honeywell, which is nice, but doesnt have phone app or as many options.

I would read up on the recent incident in TX where the energy company took control of people's wifi thermostats and raised the temps in their house during an energy shortage.
It seems the authorization to do that was buried deep down in the User Agreement.

That’s surprising. I have 2 different Honeywell models (home & work) and they both work through apps. Total connect Comfort for my home & Honeywell Home for my office
