Have set and reset my color bulb to come on and off with the sunset/sunrise rule options. Works for a day or two than not-so-much. Any thoughts? Going to use custom option with specific times that will have to be changed with the change in season. Not happy.

You’ll need to post another screenshot of your rule(s). Also, please take a screenshot of the expanded history records associated to your rule: Wyze app Home > Account > Rules > History > expand each section (the down arrow icons). E.g.: [Screenshot_20220218-085516_Wyze]

I need help with my color bulb and setting up for sunrise on/off and sunset on/off. I might be overthinking this but it never seems to work.

Glad to help! Can you post a screen shot of your rule, make sure all actions on the rule are included. You don’t happen to have both an on and off action in the rule?? That’s the most common oopsy. You only need one or the other.

Hmmm, the double rule might be the issue but it was actually off this morning. Any tips suggested and I’ll see what happens tonight. [image]

Thanks for the photo! Exactly as I had thought. The way rules work is that all actions listed run at the start time that you program into the rule. So you have a on command and a off command listed, both are sent to the device at your start time. You only need the on command in your rule, because …

Done, hopefully it works correctly this evening. Thanks for the help!

Hmmm, none of the Wyze color bulbs turned off. All following these settings. The goal is to turn on at sunset and turn off at sunrise. Hmm, did I have it backwards and now the first screenshot correct? [image] [image] [image]

What does your rules history say for that time? From the home page in the app, click account, then rules then the history tab.

It’s working now, I had it backwards and turning on at sunrise and not sunset. It worked today and thanks for helping me.

Uh yeah, I know about sunrise. I want the bulb to come ON before then, at first light.
