Some questions about using solely HomeKit to manage my ecobee thermostat as opposed to the ecobee app:
1. Do I need to keep the ecobee app installed on my device?
2. I can remove everything from my ecobee app schedule except sleep, which appears as an all-day event. Will this conflict with HomeKit?
3. ecobee Device Settings > Hold Duration: Does "Until the net scheduled activity" need to be enabled in order for scheduled automations in HomeKit to work? What about if "Until you change it" is enabled? With it be strictly manual-enabled, as in HomeKit automations won't change the thermostat temperature?
Any other suggestions in replacing the ecobee app with HomeKit are welcome.
