Recently installed smart bulbs and created a group with a schedule to turn on/off. Bulbs turn on at the scheduled time but do not turn off as scheduled. I am able to turn them off from the app so they are connected to WiFi. Any suggestions?

You might get more information in the "Roku Smart Home" section, but if I recall correctly you need two rules to turn a light on and off - one to turn it on and one to turn it off. If you're trying to set a "Start time" and an "End time" in one rule it won't do what you want. It's been a while since I played with schedules which is why I suggest posting in the "Lights & power" section:

Re: Smart Bulbs do not turn off
Thanks for the suggestion. I had just thought to set up 2 separate rules. Definitely will try this and move the discussion if I'm not successful. Thanks again!

Re: Smart Bulbs do not turn off
I had a problem with one of my outlets not switching when I had it scheduled. After looking closer at my rules I realized I had programmed two conflicting rules for that particular device. Once I removed the one I didn't want, it worked just fine. So look at your rules and make sure you don't have any conflictions. Also don't forget that you can program a scene for a bulb, and it's possible to have a confliction there as well.

Thank you for the suggestions. Removed original rule and set up separate rules for on and off. Lights are operating correctly.

Deleted original rules and set up on and off separately. Lights are working as scheduled.
