The following has been working without problems over a couple of versions.
I assume you do talk about this same App? (click on image to get full size)
Did you specify the time properly (24h clock I think)

Yes, and also the time is according to the system time (24h). I tested it a couple of minutes ahead. Dies it maybe need more time in between to activate? I tested it with all methods, only the device/switch, including a scene, only a scene... nothing worked. The scene does work if I push on it to activate, but not automatically with the schedule app. I'm going crazy. :-)

I do have 5 schedule commands and 4 scenes. The scenes do only set one binary switch, and a great number of toggleButtons that do set radiator thermostatic valves using a js command (because there is still no option to select mode setting directly) One scene activates 9 such toggleButtons. One other has a mixture of binarySwitch and toggleButton

What kind of commands do you have in your scenes? I am on ZWay 2.2.1 at the moment

Problem solved! I had to activate the Cron app and then the scheduled scenes worked. The cron app wasn't activated by default.

Letterman1981 is on v2.2.1. but where is a solution for the pi reboot problem with v2.1.1?
Switching off and on of every single ScheduledScene can't be a solution!

I have the same version 2.2.1 but schedules fail to activate. Can you please explain how you solved step by step?

Thank you!

HI,

I am new to this and rely on apps because I cant program. Using a if then app I turn on a light switch when my front door open. That works, however I want to put a schedule so this if then app only comes on at night time.

Thanks in advance

Instead of IFTHEN, try App Logical Rule. I does allow to specify a time window. I remember there is also a weathermodule in the appstore that provides a "daylight" sensor. That could probably fit with ifthen

Hi,
any news here since 2.2.3? Do the scheduled scenes come up again after a reboot?
