DO NOT BUY

I have received two different grilleye pro plus thermometers. Neither one of them have worked. Both had the exact same problem, they can’t update the new firmware and use Wi-Fi the way that they say they can. The thermometers freeze and crash and then cannot be reset after you attempt to update the firmware. From that point the only way that you can use the thermometer is through Bluetooth and it constantly drops Bluetooth connection. Customer service is zero help whatsoever, you can only contact him through email, and I seem to really not care or want to talk very much as most of the responses you get back from them are two lines Long and contain extremely obvious instructions that everyone would have already tried. You cannot call them on the phone to ask for a real time customer service help. And their devices just simply don’t work. Trust me don’t buy this don’t use this app the entire product isn’t worth it.

Won't update

Brand new out of the box and it won't stay connected to the internet. Also it can't seem to find the router unless I literally place it within 5 feet of the actual unit. No other pieces of tech have any trouble connecting from anywhere in the house and most of the perimeter. And if that's not enough, it won't update the firmware. 9 times out of 10, it says there is no connection. The other time it will start downloading the new firmware until it hits 70% complete. Then it throws up the same "no connection" error. This is going back to Costco immediately. What a piece of junk. Wasted a couple hours tonight trying to get this thing to work.

Has potential

I really hate products that rely solely on WiFi and blue tooth connections for this reason. This app is constantly losing connection. Every ten to fifteen minutes it send you an alarm that it’s been disconnected. I really wish it would work properly.

Frustrating Setup

All app versions and firmware is up to date. After multiple reinstalls and reboots, still nothing.

My grilleye shows it’s connected to WiFi/Cloud, yet my app won’t connect over anything but Bluetooth.

Awesome

Just downloaded the updated app with cloud feature and it’s incredible. Now I have no limits when monitoring my food. Impressed!!

New updates are phenomenal

I’ve always loved the app, but with this new update with cloud monitoring it’s EVEN BETTER. I walked to the neighbor’s away from my WiFi signal and it still worked!! I noticed a temp change right away and headed back to the grill. Great app and product!!

Graphs not usable

I love the GEPro but..... the graphing functionality needs to be fixed. If the unit is off then it should graph anything! It should give you the option to reset after or before a new cook.
