On the Mobile App to Program My Schedule on Ecobee Thermostat

Open the schedule tab from the main menu: Main Menu > Schedule. You will see your schedule for the day. Tap on any of the days listed at the top to view your schedule for that specific day.

If you want to change the start time of a specific activity, then tap on the activity (Home, Away, or Sleep) and adjust the time. The ecobee will keep this activity/Comfort Setting until your next scheduled activity starts.

If you want to add a new Comfort Setting into your schedule, click the plus icon in the top right corner.

You will have the option to select between your programmed comfort settings. Choose the comfort setting you want to add and tap Next in the bottom right corner.

Important: If you want to create a custom comfort setting, that can only be done via the Web Portal. Learn how to create a custom Comfort Setting through the Web Portal.

Select the time you would like to set for the Comfort Setting, after that click save in the bottom right corner.

Important: You cannot schedule two instances of the same comfort setting back-to-back. If you're getting a message at the top of this screen that indicates a conflict, please ensure you are not scheduling two identical Comfort Settings in a row.

You will now see the Comfort Setting you’ve added to/adjusted in your schedule. If you want to copy the schedule for this specific day throughout the rest of the week, select Copy [Holiday] at the bottom.

You will then be able to select the days you want to copy this schedule over to. Tap Save in the bottom right corner.

Success! You've now programmed your ecobee's schedule. You can make adjustments to your schedule at any time by simply repeating the process above. 

The ecobee will now follow your schedule and keep your pre-programmed Comfort Settings (unless you place a hold by manually adjusting the temperature on the thermostat, through the app or other APIs).
