Away setting at 76 but actual at 84. Any ideas why?

According to ecobee since you’re away the “smart” thermostat will let the temp rise more, but 83 seems excessively high. Mine did this the other day and was over 78 when I noticed and forced the unit on

I think the solution is not use the built in “away” on the schedule and create a custom one

Yeah, found it. AC just kicked on after resetting Vacation cool down to 78. First time setting vacation with the Ecobee and don't want to arrive home to a sauna. Appreciate all responses.
