### 3/5 — Sandy

*2021-03-23, version 1.0.3*

Initially I found the app to be really good as I’m new to the Weber experience. Now I have found that the front page tends to freeze and you are unable to choose the desired meat. Pork option overlaps on the continue button and its difficult to move to the next page.  I have removed the app and reloaded it but it didn’t fix the problem.

### 4/5 — Fish?

*2021-01-20, version 1.0.3*

No fish option....

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-11-23, version 1.0.2*

Yeah good
