I have different work areas for different schedules. Which work area is used for automatic scheduling? Thanks ---

I believe based on the screenshot in the wiki article below that it does all work plans. I know manual gives you an option to pick which plan. Not sure about auto. > **[\[2024\] What is the Snowfall Notification](https://wiki.yarbo.com/en/snow-blower/app-guide/snow-fall-notification)** ---

Hi there! The automatic schedule is generated based on the **first work plan** in your list. You can simply **reorder your work plans** so the one you want Yarbo to use automatically is placed at the top. For more details about how this feature works, feel free to check the related article on the Yarbo Wiki: [[2024] What is the Snowfall Notification | Yarbo Wiki](https://wiki.yarbo.com/en/snow-blower/app-guide/snow-fall-notification) Let me know if you need help adjusting the order! ---

Hmm… I guess I should check my sorting… ---

I have changed the order of my plans, but the automatic scheduling still picks the oldest one, which is a lawn mower plan, which makes it currently useless unless I delete all my older saved plans. I would like for this to be fixed. It would also be nice if it can use the tags we can set on our areas as an indication of which plans are appropriate to select for snow blowing. I would also like the ability to set a time interval where automatic plans are not allowed to start, as the snowblower wakes the neighbors if it starts in the middle of the night here, and it would be nice if an automatic plan that wanted to start during this interval could be scheduled to start after the interval instead. ---

It would be a lot more intuitive if under the Auto schedule tab, we could list the the work plans we wanted to run, in the sequence of priority. I found the process of setting it up very confusing. I think I have it now after this thread but sill unsure until it runs. We are expecting snow today, but no schedule shown yet. ---

I live in the CO mountains and the auto scheduler does not work. our weather is hyper local so using the weather report to schedule does not work. we need some physical way to gauge the snow. It should auto clear - heater like my heat tape sensor does DS8-C ---

Start, schedules, toggle off auto schedule or toggle the enable off on the schedule. ---

OK, thanks, I had to cancel current job as it was on the charger, only then I was able to see this option.
