My eco-friendly smart thermostat update bricked my doorbell camera for a week
Guess being kind to the planet means letting package thieves win sometimes, idk.

These updates always seem to break more than they fix lately.

Watched my buddy try to print a shipping label after the last update. The app just froze solid every single time. He had to drive to the library to use their computer, it was such a mess.

Seriously, how does a thermostat update even touch your doorbell camera? That's like updating your toaster and your fridge stops working. These things are supposed to be separate systems. It's wild that companies push out updates without checking how they affect other devices. I'd be so mad if my security was down for a week because of some eco mode. Makes you question what they're doing with these software patches at all.
