I’ve had a Sensi model st55 for 2 years now.Be sure you get this cheaper $80.00, model available from Amazon. It has buttons that control selecting heat or air conditioning and changing the temperature and more. It also works with Alexa and there is an app for I Phone and I think, Android.
Note, the more expensive model is flat screen only. No buttons. The buttons are important for a blind person to use the thermostat in case your internet goes down. The $80.00, thermostat with buttons is model ST55.

I am able to do some basic things without the Internet, app or Alexa, but since I am totally blind, I have to rely on good notes (not enough space for braille labels). I am very pleased with this thermostat, and what is especially cool is that I had nothing to do with selecting it. The thermostat was selected/installed by the company/workers who installed a new furnace and AC 7.5 years ago.

Honeywell T9 or T10 would probably be my choice, we have a Honeywell T5 which has long since been discontinued, but it works well although it is a touch screen thermostat so if for some reason your internet goes down you would have a hard time setting anything on it, but I believe many smart thermostats would be the same way. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> <viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> > On Behalf Of M.

Hello Everyone, Okay, I know that I have asked this question before but, now that I must buy a new thermostat for my home, within the next week or so, as my 32 year old model is starting to fail on a virtually daily basis, what Alexa compatible thermostat do you either recommend and / or are currently using? I am aware of the Nest brand models; I thought they were Google-only models but I think they also can work with Alexa, right? Does anyone have any experience with Nest / Alexa compatibility? Also, I know that Honeywell makes Alexa models but, from what I have read on the web, today, one must setup an online account with Honeywell before the device can be used with Alexa. That sounds like a lot of trouble to me; maybe. The only thing I know for certain is that I want a model that will work with Amazon Alexa, out of the box, because I do not want to use a third-party app, is I can avoid doing so. I have come to trust the Alexa app for iOS and iPad OS. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
