Trying to debate whether getting hive heating is worth it, so if you have it, is to worth it?

I absolutely love my Hive app! It's great for being able to check the temperature and flick the heating on if required - yesterday I was about an hours drive away, had been out all day but it was really cold, check the app and temp indoors was 16 degrees so put the heating on to warm up for when I got in.

Love, love , love hive. Not just for heating but we’ve got hive smart bulbs and security system. Love being able to check everything from wherever we are and turn the heating up when we are on our way home. Also works with Alexa so can voice command it, and do routines, so “Alexa we’re going out now” turns off the lights, turns down the heating and sets the alarm.

Love it.

Tado here.
System paid for itself within the first year, 7.8% savings in January according to the app.

I have a Nest and wouldn't be without it. I love that I can turn the heating on when I'm on my way home from somewhere. You don't have to worry about having it on a timer, or the timing being inaccurate if your plans change or whatever - you just switch it on and off on demand.

I'm another who loves her Hive, we've had it a few years and I love being able to control the heating through my phone and Alexa
