Spotty connectivity

The app only connects to the grill ~ 50% of the time. And yes:
1. The phone is on the same WiFi as the grill
2. Bluetooth is turned on
3. The grill is connected to my WiFi (eero app shows me the connection)
4. No long distance or other obstructions.

Until the app works with any amount of consistency, I'll consider it garbage. How in 2024 does an app not work seamlessly? SMH

Current Griddle

I have the Current Griddle & this unit is very impressive and is ideal for backyard or small patio use. I really have enjoyed being able to turn on my griddle and set the temperature through my phone app and am then able to keep updated when it has reached the desired temperature and can set timers through the app as I cook. The app has a clean layout and is very easy to connect to my griddle and begin cooking.

I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. Thoughts and opinions written are my own.

Old dog learns new tricks

I’ve been a pitmaster for 17 years and the Current griddle has been a welcome addition to my arsenal. The app is easy to use and helps keep track of my temps. The recipes are great and easy to follow. I would highly suggest you use this app when using the griddle, it helps tremendously.

Current backyard app

Such a convenient app, make initial startup a breeze. Worth the investment on a great product and app interface.

Really close to great

Once everything is set up, this almost feels like cheating. You know the temperature of your grill and the meat. It’s too easy. Unfortunately for some reason I have to set up the Bluetooth and WiFi settings every time I use the grill, so it’s almost not worth it.

Easy App for your Grill

Love the alerts when the temp is ready or timer is done. Remember to use Auto Clean after every cook - it’s a great feature!

Loving this grill

Used the Current grill this past Easter Sunday and not only was using it a blast, but it was totally a breeze as well. This app is very intuitive and enabled me to seamlessly control my cook with ease!

Best App!

I love this app as it makes grilling so much easier. It’s really easy to work with and the Current Backyard electric grill is the best.

Love the Grille and the App!

It has been so convenient being able to monitor the app inside while out steaks cook outside! The integrated temperature probe is so easy and convenient. This way we are able to host, keep an eye on the kids and cook an excellent steak!

So easy to use!

As a grilling novice, this grill + app have been so useful. I’ve always been intimidated by grilling in general but this makes it so accessible. No complaints, I love it!
