"an email from Google stating that they are no longer it's going to support the Nest 1st gen and 2nd gen thermostats. While they will continue to operate locally, it appears that they will no longer work with the Nest app or Home app controls." at least they dont seem to be planning a mass bricking.

Does operate locally retain any smart features or does it just essentially become a dumb thermostat?

  From what I understand it just means the app will no longer work for that thermostat. All the other features that you access from the device itself should still work. At least that's how it was presented to me on the Nest app.

    Can you access smart features on the device itself? Like program in schedules or whatever? Or does the device itself more or less just let you set a target temperature without the app

      Yes those still work. App integration won’t but on device features should be fine.

  I had one of the second-gen units, it was programmable locally, and you could locally enable the learning mode (which was not good)
