I found a post from two years ago saying the energy dashboard shows a darker color when aux heat is used. I’ve never seen that on mine, so I’m wondering if it’s a hardware limitation or if I have something set up wrong. Anyone know?
I’ve never seen it show heat sources separately. The best I get is hourly usage type.

That’s what I was looking for, thanks.
I’m still using the old Nest app, and when I check the history, the second-stage gas heat shows as a slightly darker orange.
it’s in your energy history, it should show it. it shows on mine. imgur | direct
nest > thermostat icon (the one with temp) > then the bottom rightmost option “history”
(not sure what version differences there are)
edit: in the Nest app. not Home app like what i assume you’re using.

I use the Google Home app. When I try to set it up in the Nest app, it just tells me to download Google Home.

That’s disappointing. Looks like Google is going to force everyone over eventually.
I gave up on Nest a while ago. Too many issues.
