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.

    Honeywell T6 ZWave is great. Simple, classic touchscreen controls, and local radio control that just works. No AI funny business either. Mine is hooked up to Home Assistant via a Zooz USB dongle.

    I’ve greatly enjoyed ZWave things in general compared to the wild west of ZigBee and WiFi devices. They’re sometimes more pricey, but they pretty much just work.
