OK i'm still a bit confused
How to get a temperature from a real sensor ?
and how to switch my heater relay on according to the schedule and thermostat?
Thanks
You need a real thermostat, ie a physical device from our compatable device list.
The virtual devices are simply there for testing automations as needed.

Yes
Basically my Gas heating system needs only a contact to start when the temperature goes under the setpoint.
I will use a sonoff temperature sensor and a shelly it's all
The most important is to have a scheduler weekly and daily
So that app will be able to handle what you need to do, it is compatible with the built in Thermostat Scheduler. It can control any switch type device and can have 1 or more temp sensors as inputs (2 is ideal). It has safety features in case sensors stop sending while it is heating (battery died, defective, dropped off the mesh, etc.).

Ok, great. Is there a dashboard through which I can set all the parameters (scheduling, temperature, time etc.)?
