I got the tailwind for the night mode, which works great, but kind of annoying the door closes after an hour during the day. It would be great if there was afternoon mode and day mode. Afternoon mode which you can last to leave the door open for 4 hours. Day mode for the weekend again leave the door open. Doing yard work, cleaning the car, watching the kids play all the different things where you keep the door open. Weekday and weekend modes. It’s like an alarm clock.

  Hi Derek,

  Thank you for your feedback. I have captured this feature request. Please note that Tailwind does offer some features already that will at least partially address what you're looking for - although it's not exactly what you've requested obviously.

  You already know about Night Mode.

  There is a separate feature under "My Notifications" where Tailwind will notify you if the door has been left open for X minutes, and you can configure this up to 60 minutes. There is an optional checkbox there to also close the door, not just notify you. It sounds like you have that turned on.
  
  There is also a door disable feature. This is handy for working around the yard because you can disable the door permanently - until you "uncheck" the disable feature, or you can disable it until a certain time - after which it will automatically revert back to normal operation. This can be found by tapping the gear icon to the right of whatever door you want to disable. Please note - this does not disable any controls that operate outside the Tailwind system. We can't stop your garage door opener from responding to the the garage remotes, etc.

  I do use the notification to close door and also the disable feature. But what's annoying is that the notification can only go up to an hour. Also, with the door close option, it notifies you and closes immediately. Would be nice if it gave you a delay. Like it would notify you after your set time, and then 10 minutes later or whatever it would close. Cause I get the notification that it's been open and if I want it to stay open I don't have enough time to disable it before it starts closing.
