Won’t connect
It use to connect, and now will not recognize my fridge.
Stop working
Stop connecting with my phone..Pls help can’t find the device.
Finally stopped working
ARB please fix, six years!!!
Carplay
Please add CarPlay to app as it would make it much more useful
Great accessory for ARB elements fridge
It allows you to lock/unlock, set 3 different temperature profiles, adjust the temperature, and turn the fridge off and on.
Works well but where is Apple CarPlay version?
This really works well, I monitor my fridge and the battery with it amd when there was faukt, I could see what was wrong. What ARB needs to add to ther apps is for them to work with Apple CarPlay, please add this ASAP. 🤠
Worst. App. Ever.
The app is about as good as Hunter Biden is keeping track of his laptop. And I’m assuming the developer was sharing crack with Hunter while creating this dumpster fire of worthless junk.
ARB Clearly doesn’t care
Only 17 reviews and 2 stars and no update in over 2 years. Nothing says I don’t care better than that.
Low number of reviews is probably because it’s a pain to connect. I’d like to meet the product director who signed off on the design of a tiny connector on the end of a flimsy ribbon cable to mate with a recessed connector. I spent a ridiculous amount of time to get that in there and seated, only to have to not work, because it won’t pair. If I’d come here first and saw the poor reviews and no update in years, I wouldn’t have spent the time on it, time I’ll never get back.
“Let’s make a great fridge and then we’ll add a gimmick to it and mess with our customers by making it a really poor design and then we’ll ignore them and the software”.
Thanks.
If only zero stars were permitted for a review. I thought Apple had standards for what they let in the App Store? Responding to customers and updating the software to provide a decent experience to get decent reviews apparently isn’t one of the standards.

Barely works
Disappointed — to say the least. Love my ARB fridge, but this device and app is very poor. Barely works. Surprised there isn’t a fix by now.
Carplay
Please make it happen to work with carplay.
Will not connect - Don’t waste your money on it.
Several attempts, over several days to get app to connect to fridge, and no luck.
Great fridge, but Poor app. Our Domestic 2+ yrs now and zero issues with app and fridge.
ARB with all your quality gear, you’d think some of that quality could go into your app.
Cheers,

Never works
App never works. Won’t connect. Have installed and uninstalled multiple time but never works.
Please add CarPlay compatibility
Good App for a great fridge. ARB please add CarPlay compatibility for your Apps as it will make your products 100% more user friendly.
Awesome!
Works great!! Would be good if it gave you notifications though
Garbage
This app is total trash
Nearly useless
I thought I’d never write a bad review of any ARB product (true hardcore fan of all ARB products) but this app is embarrassing guys. As everyone has noticed, the instructions need updating. Make sure you read the PIN number before plugging it in and then wasting time trying to figure why your phone won’t pair. Silly from the get go. The app could sure use an update. It’s very basic at best and quirky. Could definitely use some basic push notifications such as others have mention. It doesn’t seem to be accurate. Sometimes I can adjust settings and sometimes not. I’ve done everything from disconnecting the module, disconnect power, reinstall etc etc. one day it’s ok and the next it won’t connect. Today I can’t adjust any settings. I mainly liked the idea of being able to turn it on standby remotely and then back on through my iPhone. Today that won’t even work as basic as that should be. I’ve hardwired the fridge (series 2, 60L). Love the fridge. But extremely disappointed with the app. Please source a high school techy and get it upgraded it please!!! Can’t be hard in today’s age. However, Still a fan of ARB tho.

Hi there, thank you for sharing your feedback. If you're still experiencing issues connecting, please give our ARB USA tech team a call for support (866) 293-9078.
Always says running
App always says compressor is running even when off...

Thank you for your feedback. This should not be the case, please contact our ARB USA tech team for support (866) 293-9078.
Connected but not monitoring
I have a late mode Series 1, purchased last year. I just started with the Bluetooth module and can connect to it from the phone but am not able to get any monitoring data. It’s all greeted out and set at zero C.
Response from developer
Hey there, could you please try to disconnect the module, disconnect all of the power supply to the fridge (DC and AC), reconnect the module, then reconnect power and try again. Sometimes the module has troubles establishing a connection if the fridge is powered up first. If you continue to experience issues, please reach out to your local ARB store or our ARB's USA tech team.
Decent basic app, protip for Classic II Series Owners...
Read the pin code off the back of the transmitter before installing on the unit. Their instructions are outdated. Connect using the app, the unit won’t be visible on your phone Bluetooth menu. ARB seriously needs to have better instructions if they’re going to demand such a premium price for these.

Needs work
This is a very basic app. The potential could be huge if only ARB cared about the app. It has not been updated in many months.
I believe ARB made this app just to check a box “app enabled.”
It would be nice to see push notifications of voltage, when unit kicks on, etc.
Graphing energy use and time compressor is on, etc would all be helpful.
Update the app and bring some features and I will update my review

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, these features are not planned for this particular app, as smartphone apps aren't permanently connected to the fridge, making features like this unreliable. If you're interested in temperature and voltage logging, notifications and warnings about your fridge, we invite you to check out ARB's LINX Vehicle Accessory Interface which has a dedicated module to provide deeper insights into your ARB fridge freezer.
