Good local-only/local-first wifi thermostat? (infosec.pub)

I want to be able to control my thermostat from my phone, so I'm looking for recommendations for one that meets the following:

Works with no network access (as in, I can access it but it can't access anywhere else, enforced via VLAN on my firewall)
Lets me control my single apartment thermostat (temperature, heat/cool, maybe programming but it's okay if I have to do that on the unit directly)
Not hundreds of dollars
No microphone

Any thoughts? Really just want something simple.

Edit: I have no other smart home devices right now, if that matters.

Yeah, I don't blame you not wanting to commit to a hub if you'd only have this thermostat.

Depending on what features you want maybe you could find an offline one with those features built in. I know there's ones with schedules and presence detection that are fully offline.
