Terrible app
Will not connect to device as device displays as BLE-None instead of BLE-C600.
Utterly useless typical poor quality assurance process. Obviously never test anything before sending out.

Trouble putting it in chlorine levels
Any one know how to take this out of salt mode to chlorine mode? That’s one of the reasons I purchased this for my PH levels and chlorine levels
Works well
Connecting to Bluetooth is fairly straightforward. Hold down power button to turn Bluetooth on, it should then connect directly to the app without pairing (iPhone).
Can save readings and export to a spreadsheet. However can not export calibration records that I can tell, which is a shame.

Bluetooth connection fails
This tester’s Bluetooth connection USED to work, but no longer. It can be selected in Bluetooth settings but the connection is dropped as soon as you click away, and the app receives no data. Please fix this app!!!
Doesn’t work
YY-1030 doesn’t connect.
This works for me as a very basic tool…
I’ve seen one other favorable review in here, which was quite thorough, & I follow along with that review. I use an iPhone 12 Pro Max, I have no Bluetooth connectivity issues, as some others are describing, perhaps that has something to do with the model of the testing unit vs the app (i’m using the YY–1030 tester), not sure?
On the iPhone 12 PM, I’m running iOS 17.2, but I’ve used the latest version of this app from today, as well as recent versions across the last year approx, without any problems on the same model phone & previous iOS’s in that timeframe.
I collect fountain pens, & I have a number of vintage fountain pens made out of celluloid, and and you need to be aware of the pH levels of inks, so I use this meter to test pH levels of fountain pen ink.
It really works fantastic for this purpose. The other reviewer did mention about having to click the disk icon to save, that’s fine I’ve gotten used to it, I agree it’s a bare bones app.
Otherwise… I’m grateful it can share out a data file, I wish it had a function to synchronize data between versions of the app installed on multiple iOS devices, for when you might use it with more than one copy of the app, ideally to take advantage of iCloud syncing, but it would be nice to open the app on my iPad, as well as my iPhone, and have all of the readings there synchronized…
At present, there is no way to manage merging data between two installations of the app.
***As a feature request, it would be nice to see some type of data syncing functionality / choice, if the user wanted it, especially since an iOS app can ask permission to sync by saving a file on the iCloud Drive of the user.
I see the developers release notes are always in Chinese, so I’m not sure if the developer actually reads the English reviews or if they get translated back to the developer automatically, but that would be my ONE wish list item, I’m otherwise very content with this highly functional bare bones tool!

YINMIK BLE-P-3 Bluetooth 2 in 1 Water Quality Tester
I purchased this tester for reading my PH levels for my 40 Gal and 75 Gal fish tank. It works good for reading PH levels but as far as Bluetooth connectivity it’s trash. You can go to settings on your phone to select it and it will connect that way until you go back to the app to see if it’s connected.
It does not connect to the app period so you are better off purchasing the model that’s no Bluetooth

Works Fine on iPhone 14, IOS 17.0
Not certain what the other poor reviews are talking about. The app is unremarkable, but the BT connects properly and records the data as indicated. The application functions are extremely minimalist to be sure but the app is designed to read and record data whilst the probe is inserted in the ground. It records date, time, temperature, and pH. It is a bit annoying that the “save reading” button doesn’t actually save the data, you have to press the “disk” icon in the top right corner to actually save the data point.
The instructions that come with the probe are not exactly well written (which instructions are these days?), but one can probably figure it out without too much effort.
The device itself seems very fragile so users need to be careful handling the probe end especially when inserting it into soil with the metal protection “spear head”. And like the instructions indicate “NEVER unscrew the metal tip BEFORE removing any packed in soil or you will break the glass tip.

Doesn't stay connect with IPhone
Was able to connect, see the result on phone, but it doesn't stay connected. Will have to power off then power on to connect and see history result. Not what is expected for app, waste of time. Anyone know what device will work?
Bluetooth Not Compatible with iPhone
Spent 2 hours trying to connect app. It is not compatible with iPhone. Don’t waste your time.
