Welcome to the Forum, @AAAA! 👋 You may wish to consult this topic, which seems relevant to your issue: > [@Outdoor plugs, schedule works on 1 plug and not the 2nd plug](https://forums.wyze.com/t/outdoor-plugs-schedule-works-on-1-plug-and-not-the-2nd-plug/288853): > > I know this doesn’t show anything really, but I have 2 outdoor plugs that will not respond to the schedules I’ve set. They each have 2 plugs, and each is seperately controlled. The number 1 plug works as scheduled, no problem, been working for a long time. I’ve also used the 2nd plug and had those scheduled too and they worked fine. Well, now they don’t, and I can’t figure out why. It’s 2 seperate plugs doing this too. I can schedule outlet 1 on both and it works. But when I schedule the 2nd out… In your situation, I’d also consider doing the following: 1. Submit a log from the Wyze app the next time you see the issue recur and then follow that with a ticket submission (to link the issue to the log you submitted). 2. Create the schedule you want as an Automations (formerly Rules) Schedule instead of the Local Schedule feature on the Plug Outdoor, if possible. Note that Automations require an Internet connection to run (unlike Local Schedules, which I understand are stored on the Plug and run from that even if the Internet connection is interrupted), so this may or may not be a workable alternative in your situation, but it appears to be what others are doing according to the post I linked above, at least until Wyze offers a remediation. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.wyze.com/t/schedules-wont-work-properly-on-outdoor-smart-plug/306889)._
