Feature Request #73

Open notorioustubze opened 3 years ago

Hi, would it be possible to add the option for the resume schedule and boost heating switch to auto reset once they are used? Currently If I "Turn On" the resume schedule switch it remains in the On state same for the boost, meaning I have to switch the switch off before I can turn the feature on again. It's my understanding that the boost heating feature on Tado last for 30 mins so maybe they could auto turn off after 30 mins? I hope that makes sense.

Regardless I love the Plugin and greatly appreciate your work.

The plugin is really awesome indeed!

That being said, this feature would indeed be a real game changer with the homekit integration.

The "boost" feature only kicks in for 30 minutes with the native Tado app, which is great in an automation context.

With the current plugin implementation, the "boost" feature is set forever and turning off the switch will not reset the devices to auto, which makes it a huge waste of energy...

The right behaviour would be that the "boost" switch only works with a 30 minutes (or editable) timer before resuming to the "auto" schedule.

@seydx any chance you can look into this?

I'll second that. A good way to also solve this problem would simply be to make the schedule switch and boost switch into buttons (As they essentially are in de native tado app).
