WEMO Application

[Sobriain]

When setting schedules the time entered is not returned correctly. Time appears as an hour earlier!. I am on Greenwich time.

Did this work fine before? Do you mean to say that you're currently using GMT in your region? Also, what are the workarounds that you've tried to resolve this? We'll take it from there.

When daylight savings started last week, I changed my smart switch to turn the lamp on from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm. I can see it's set for 6:30 but it still comes on at 5:30!!!

Hi, Daisy1.
Try to restore your Wemo switch to factory default. Make sure that your phone is on DST. Recreate the rule and observe if the issue recur. Also, you may try these steps:

1. Open the WEMO App and go to the "More" tab. 
2. Set your location to a random city/time zone that is not your location.
3. Close out the WEMO App so it is not running in the background.
4. Start the WEMO App and go to the "More" tab. 
5. Set your location to the city back to where the WEMO is.
6. Go to the "Rules" tab. Choose your scheduled rule and tap Edit. You do not have to make any changes to the rule, simply save it and it will update the location information.
7. Repeat steps 6 and 7 for any rules.

Please note that you will need to be on the location of the WEMO for this.

I am in the same boat -- in Saskatchewan, we don't observe DST, yet after the most recent change over, my switch schedules are now an hour early.

The solution of switching city/timezones does not stick. Upon reststarting the Android app, the original city is coded. It appears that the switches themselves are stuck with the setup city/zone, and the app simply reads that rather than writing the change to the switch

A solution of having to factory reset each of multiple switches twice a year to deal with either a software or firmware bug, is unacceptable. There are posts about this issue going back quite some time. Please have the tech folks finally fix this issue.
