Hello Miss Adrienne (got that right, didn't I)? *smile* I am not sure if the Honeywell app is accessible, I seem to remember something that it may not be, but can't be sure. As for whether the Radio Thermostat would work in the UK is probably a question you have to ask your heating

Hi Steve, Chucck is correct, the scheduling function is accessible although I find it's not as intuitive as it could be. As far as connecting the thermostat to the WiFi, this is better done with sighted help. The process on the phone is accessible, but at one point a 5-digit code is
