Here, we show how to find Honeywell thermostat firmware version that this wireless internet thermostat is currently running. Knowing this helps support people help YOU solve issues with remote connections, control from across the internet, and so on. This can aid them in troubleshooting smart thermostat issues. These include bizarre behaviors, touchscreen lockups, WiFi connection failures, and other IoT gotchas.
Note that in the Honeywell thermostat we’ve tested, to get the release information, you don’t need your mobile device. That is, there’s no need to run the Honeywell Total Comfort Connect (TCC) app. Rather, find the firmware version without any other accessories besides the powered on thermostat.
Instead, with the thermostat powered ON, you just navigate around a couple screens. Then the thermostat lists all the software component versions bundled up in the current firmware version number. Obtaining this data on a Honeywell WiFi thermostat is definitely a simple, straight forward process.

The thermostat does not need internet to display the current firmware version. So fear not if you’re having trouble getting your smart thermostat to connect. You’ll still be able to read its firmware version information.
Note that the thermostat must be ON to display the screen you need to see for this information.
