This decision could affect many users who previously used the app for free. If you want to find out more about the exact background and how the whole thing became public, you can read about it on all news portals such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heise.de\/news\/Tado-prueft-Bezahl-Modell-fuer-App-Grundfunktionen-smarter-Heizthermostate-10291629.html\">heise.de<\/a> read up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the past, you could use the Tado app to conveniently control your heating, create schedules and monitor the room temperature. Now the company is considering charging a fee for these basic functions. This change could be particularly problematic for users who are not familiar with alternative integrations or do not want to deal with them, such as older people who are familiar with the current app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For detailed instructions and explanations of all configuration options, I recommend watching the YouTube video linked below. This video goes into detail about each individual setting, providing you with comprehensive instructions on how to set everything up correctly. Any code from the video can be found in this article, so you can use it directly without having to type it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_84 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-transparent ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title ez-toc-toggle\" style=\"cursor:pointer\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #dd3333;color:#dd3333\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #dd3333;color:#dd3333\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/sascha-brockel.de\/en\/tado-wants-to-introduce-a-subscription-model-for-basic-functions\/#Warum_uberlegt_Tado_ein_Abo_einzufuhren\" >Why is Tado considering introducing a subscription?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/sascha-brockel.de\/en\/tado-wants-to-introduce-a-subscription-model-for-basic-functions\/#Nicht_jeder_kann_oder_will_auf_Alternativen_umsteigen\" >Not everyone can or wants to switch to alternatives<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/sascha-brockel.de\/en\/tado-wants-to-introduce-a-subscription-model-for-basic-functions\/#In_Vergangenheit_bereits_ahnliches_Vorgehen\" >Similar procedure in the past<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/sascha-brockel.de\/en\/tado-wants-to-introduce-a-subscription-model-for-basic-functions\/#Alternativen_zur_Tado_App\" >Alternatives to the Tado app<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/sascha-brockel.de\/en\/tado-wants-to-introduce-a-subscription-model-for-basic-functions\/#Umsetzung_im_YouTube-Video\" >YouTube video implementation<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/sascha-brockel.de\/en\/tado-wants-to-introduce-a-subscription-model-for-basic-functions\/#Fazit\" >Conclusion<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-warum-uberlegt-tado-ein-abo-einzufuhren\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Warum_uberlegt_Tado_ein_Abo_einzufuhren\"><\/span>Why is Tado considering introducing a subscription?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tado argues with rising operating costs and the further development of its own software. Cloud services, server maintenance and app development cause ongoing costs that cannot be fully covered by one-off hardware sales. Other smart home providers are already relying on subscription models to keep their services financially viable in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many customers, however, this sounds like a retrospective price increase. Particularly annoying: anyone who opted for Tado years ago might have chosen a different solution under these conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My personal opinion is that this is absolutely cheeky and Tado devices are among the more expensive on the market anyway and they have already hidden functions such as Auto Assist for geofencing and open window detection behind a paywall. This is really a step too far for such a basic function. By the way, you can find out how you can get Tado Auto Assist for free in my blog article here: <a href=\"https:\/\/sascha-brockel.de\/en\/tado-auto-assist-free\/\">Self-host Tado Auto-Assist for free<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nicht_jeder_kann_oder_will_auf_Alternativen_umsteigen\"><\/span>Not everyone can or wants to switch to alternatives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If Tado really does introduce a subscription model for the basic functions, the question arises: What alternatives are there? This is where things get complicated, however, because not every user can or wants to get involved with a different smart home integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many households - especially older people or less tech-savvy users - rely on the simple control via the Tado app. Setting up new systems can be a hurdle for them. In addition, many users have deliberately opted for Tado because it works with little effort and does not require in-depth smart home knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"atkp-container atkp-grid_3_columns-box  atkp-template-grid_3_columns\">\n            <div class=\"atkp-clearfix atkp-box-3-cols\">\n                            <div class=\"atkp-box atkp-smallbox atkp-box-3-cols-item atkp-clearfix\">\n                    <div class=\"atkp-thumb\">\n                                                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"atkp-image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41fiEhxLJaL._SL160_.jpg\"\n                                 alt=\"tado\u00b0 Smart Radiator Thermostat X - Trio Pack, heating control via app and smart speaker (Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant), save energy, DIY installation\"\/>\n                                            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"atkp-content\">\n                                                    <a class=\"atkp-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.de\/dp\/B0CWPDXWHP?tag=sasbro0a-21&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Buy now at Amazon\">tado\u00b0 Smart Radiator Thermostat X - Trio Pack, heating control via app and smart speaker (Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant), save energy, DIY installation*<\/a>\n                                                <div class=\"atkp-author\">by tado\u00b0<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"atkp-bottom\">\n                        <div class=\"atkp-ratingbar\">\n                                                            <div class=\"atkp-rating\"><span class=\"atkp-star atkp-star-0 atkp-star-00\" title=\"0.00 of 5 stars\"><\/span><\/div>\n                                                        <div class=\"atkp-primelogo\"><\/div>\n                            <div class=\"atkp-clearfix\"><\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                                                    <span class=\"atkp-price atkp-saleprice\">\n                                Price: \u20ac 179.99\n                                                                    <span class=\"atkp_price atkp-baseprice\"><\/span>\n                                                            <\/span>\n                                                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.de\/dp\/B0CWPDXWHP?tag=sasbro0a-21&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Buy now at Amazon\" class=\"atkp-button\">Buy now on Amazon*<\/a>\n                        \n                        \n                                                    <span class=\"atkp-priceinfo\">Price incl.

However, it does require some technical know-how.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Amazon Alexa<\/strong> (<a>Website<\/a>): If you already have an Alexa device, you can also control your heating by voice command.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Apple HomeKit<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/de\/ios\/home\/\">Website<\/a>): A good alternative for Apple users who want to manage their smart control system via the iPhone or iPad.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Google Home<\/strong> (<a>Website<\/a>): If you use Google's Smarthome environment, you can also use it to control heating systems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you already use a smart home system, it's worth checking whether your heating systems can be integrated without the Tado app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"youtube\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Umsetzung_im_YouTube-Video\"><\/span>YouTube video implementation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/AakowkgZ8Gs\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fazit\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fazit\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether Tado will actually introduce a subscription model and how expensive it will be has not yet been definitively confirmed. If you are a Tado user, you should keep a close eye on developments. If a subscription for basic functions is unavoidable, it could make sense to switch to an alternative - depending on how tech-savvy you are and how deeply your smart home is already integrated into Tado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One thing is certain: if Tado takes this step, many customers will be faced with a difficult decision. Stay and pay? Or switch and use a different system? What do you think? Would you take out a subscription to control your heating via app?
