Use Smart AC Control also as a temperature sensor for smart radiator thermostats
I have a room with both AC (controlled by a TADO Smart AC control) and a radiator (with a TADO smart radiator thermostat). The room is big and the temperature around the radiator in the winter is not what most of us using the room feel. The TADO Smart AC control is instead in a place where temperature can be sampled more…

Summer mode
My heating does not need to be and is not on during summer. I do however keep getting geofencing messages when everyone leaves the house. This is a complete waste of time and an annoyance when all heating is off anyway.

More data on tiles in app
Lots of free space on room tiles in the app, to display valued information if needed. Why not add icons for heater power level, scheduled off, or open-windows detection status ? Should be useful to get a very quick overview of the system.

Skip To Next Block in Schedule
hi. love tado :) here’s my thinking. i have blocks in the schedule and sometimes once i know we’re done with a room for the day, i knock down the temp for the current thermostat earlier than it would in the schedule. it would be great to be able to hit a button for a room to be able to skip on to the next block…

Tank Oil Level Guage
Hi guys, I'm not sure if this has been suggested before or not but I think an oil level guage in the tank that supplies my heating system that links back to the app would be a great inclusion Not only would it alert you when the oil was low but it could also estimate how much oil you have used each month and work out a…

Allow users to set heating parameters to reduce pipe noises, energy drain, improve normal heaters
During my use of tado equipment I noticed the early start algorithm can start very early, heat the heater to 80 degrees, and occasionally really ask for a lot of power from the heater very quickly. Especially in older homes/older installations, this can cause issues: You wake up early when the heater wakes up, even at…

Valve pin position indicator
My Bosch system which I got rid of in favor of Tado included in the app a place where you could see the position of the valve pin. This was useful to determine if TRV was fully opening or closing the valve pin and other temperature issues. I think this would be useful on the Tado system as well

Working Support
Here is a really novel idea. A support service that actually supports its customers! Having run into an issue, finding out that all support is now via the chat bot. Only to find that no support engineer has even looked at the request in nearly 48 hours. Disgraceful!

Recycle unused adapters
Hello. I haven’t needed any of the supplied radiator valve adapters, so I have 7 unopened packets. Be a shame for these to go to landfill. Many others must not use theirs. Can Tado offer a way to return so they can be reused?

Anthracite RAD Thermostats.
Got two lovely anthracite rads in my house but don't want to add white rad thermostats on them. Good idea? Some other colour options would be good.

Send notifications when firmware downloads taking place
Recently at 04:00 all my tado devices disconnected from the internet and all smart radiator valves turned to off. During the day various devices reconnected then disconnected again. On investigation I found the Smart valves were being updated with new firmware. On continuing tado I was told that firmware updates can…

Change the hysteresis / PID settings
Hi Tado. The current desire of the smart thermometer algorithm to track the set temperature is killing my hardware. It is turning it on/off so often that things are breaking (like TCVs). How about I can select the min and max settings that trigger a state change? Or if it is a PID system, I should be able to change the…

Manual override notification
Please add a mobile notification when the temp is changed or turned on . As it would be very handy. I have a autistic child who keeps turning the wireless thermostat on an we don't notice till its too late Thanks

iOS 16.3 HomePod Temperature Sensor
With iOS 16.3 HomePods can now relay temperature and humidity data to HomeKit. I’ve had trouble with the room heat being cold on one side, and the tado valve is near radiator… I’m using the HomePod for offsetting the room temperature, could this be automatic ?

Receive smart meter data
Either access smart meter data, or contact loop to share their access. Use this data to attribute costs to room schedules.

Selective boost
The boost all rooms is a nice option on occasions but what I’d really like to see is individual room boosts so if I’m working in one particular area I can boost the heating for a set period, say 15 mins without wasting energy heating the whole house.

TRV with empty batteries closes valve, but keeps requesting heat
The batteries of my TRV were empty and I received this email from Tado: > When your Smart Radiator Thermostat does not have enough charge to function, it will automatically close the radiator’s valve and the heating will remain off until you replace the batteries. Sure enough the valve was closed and an empty battery icon…

Enable Tado to use other temperature sensors via HomeKit
It would be very helpful if Tado could utilise existing temperature sensors that are also connected via HomeKit. I have several existing temperature sensors in my house(e.g. Netatmo) and don't want to have to buy additional Tado ones simply to get meaningful room values to control my heating. The smart radiator valves are…

More detail on device errors - Wireless Receiver
Quite often the Wireless Receiver is showing 'device errors' (blinking hazard light) but none of the devices actually have any issue. I believe that this condition is also explained by the fact that a software update may be in progress. However, this is not at all obvious. It would be really good if there was an option to…

Add max. valve opening on thermostats!!
It is crazy how my thermostats are often overheating causing a loss since the exiting water in my radiator is boiling hot. This is CRAZY EXPENSIVE - but app still calculates this as savings which is simply wrong. Add the functionality to limit water flow e.g 25-100%! Add the functionality to set max time on the max water…

Controlling heat pump for heating and cooling
By now more and more owners adopt air-water heat pumps to heat and cool their houses by water plumbing under the pavement, so saving energy respect to other solution. What is of paramount importance given the present surge of energy prices. Yet so far Tado has no solution for this configuration, notwithstanding it would…

Advanced smart scheduling
Many people work shift patterns that require a different heating schedule each week. Would it be possible to have advanced scheduling to cover multiple weeks? Ie the ability to set a heat schedule for one week, and then have it repeat every x amount of days/weeks? In exactly the same kind of way you set up repeat…

Auto meter readings
The App needs to access meter readings automatically if the Intelligent IQ is to be any good Apps like Hugo already do it, the Tado app should too
-
Longer graphs?
1) Show all devices on a single page in a graph 2) Show the graph as above but showing 1 week, 1 month etc intervals? 3) is there an external Tado device that can be installed to indicate the true outside temperature/humidity? 4) Can the graphs be printed?

Store a basic schedule locally in case of crash / lost connection
My Tado system crashed when I went on holiday when the boiler was on. It stayed on max heating until I got home. Quick sums showed it had burned abut £50 in gas (which Tado refunded in the end) but surely it makes sense to store a limited schedule locally, at the boiler controller. What's potentially worse is if the system…

Smart AC Control to turn off AC unit when desired temperature is reached
Could it be possible to add a feature to the Smart AC Control that would allow for AC unit to turn off automatically when the desired temperature is reached, and then, when the Smart AC control detects that the temperature has raised 0.5-1 degrees over, to turn on the AC unit again? At the present moment, using the Smart…

Naming radiators
I have a number of rooms in which I have more than one radiator but all connected under one Tado “room”. It would be good if each individual radiator could be named eg “under the window” so that one knows which battery to replace without having to say Hi to each radiator. This is particularly important when the radiators…
