For the heck of it I decided to try Dusk/ Dawn timer setting for outside lights.
(This, btw, is after having the WiFi unit since it became available and finding that dusk/dawn would not work - so regular timer settings for now til resolved.)
Low and behold, it worked! On the dot for my zip code! Was there a fix? I set it using my iPhone, iOS 11.4. Hub only updated once to 0.0.23. The app has never been updated as far as I know (Android there was one?). Ok, can anyone shed some light (get it?!.. ok, bad joke...) on this??
