Love the smoker, hate the app
You could avoid paying extra for the “smart” smoker because the app is ridiculous. I do wish they would make a new version of his app. It keeps crashing, is a bit complicated to use, and is very temperamental.
WTH
I couldn’t even select my smoker which is still in the box. I was hoping to get a head start on using it but this app isn’t helping me at all. Maybe fix it???
Who knows.
Couldn’t even select my smoker.
Pretty disappointing. Haven’t unboxed my smoker. Considering returning it if this is a glimpse into the future. Don’t release an app with your product if it doesn’t even function. Bad taste in my mouth and I haven’t cooked anything yet.

Awful App
Can’t even select my smoker from the first prompt. Terrible experience. Just remove the app from the store.
App for marketing purposes only
This app doesn’t even work. There’s no information submitted in the app description. Seemingly Bradley smokers offers this as an attractive feature for marketing purposes because, for the most part, customers would download this app AFTER purchasing the smoker. Ya got me!!!
Needs update
App worked perfectly up to this year, my iPhone says it’s connected but the app never gets to the screen to input the code to pair with the smoker. Terrible.
I agree with Mack Bolan 77
Pretty much everything that Mack wrote is true with one exception…now the app can’t even find my smoker when I’m sitting right beside it!
Wow, why even brother with an app?
This app looks, feels, and operates like a science fair project done by junior high school students who belong to the computer club. Clumsy and awkward to use. I can spit further than the bluetooth range. I keep having to reset everything when I want to do something simple like adjust the cook temp or smoke time. If you had the misfortune to buy a Bradley you’re stuck with this third rate app.

App doesn’t work
I can see the oven temp and the set temp but that’s it. I can’t change it on the app. All the meat temp indicator does is lets you put in your target temp. That’s it. Doesn’t show what the actual meat temp is. I don’t get it. This app needs a lot of work.
App does not work!
Update the app! Bradley should be embarrassed that this is still an issue a year later.
Worthless, A Huge Ripoff
Smoker will connect to phone, and then I cannot start the smoker. I’ve tried everything.
Terrible App
One star is to many. App does not work at all.
Bradley smoker app
I wish I didn’t have to select a star. This app is a piece of Sh*t. Don’t waste your money on this smoker buy the digital one instead. I’m surprised Bradley would drop to this level
Useless!
This app has potential but is absolutely useless!
It connects the first time and all looks good, then it loses connection, even when you’re within about a metre of the smoker.
Once it loses the connection it will not reconnect even when standing next to the smoker.
We bought the smart smoker as thought the app would be really useful, however it is really useless!

APP DOES NOT WORK
The ISMOKE App does not work with ISO 14. I purchased this smoker for this reason. Not very happy with Bradley right now due to this and the fact the Bradley had to send me a new motor due to the fact it was defective the day I received it.

Not bad, tricky to use
I saw many complain that they can't use the app to control the device. This is not true for timing and temperature. There is aspects you can control. The trick is to switch on the box and ensure nothing is on. Then you can use the app. Otherwise the functions will be grayed out.
Buggy interface
Statistics wouldn’t load for today’s smoke. Left the house and it eventually showed up.
Statistics window has 50deg C increments. Useless for any monitoring. Can zoom on time but not temp.
Not obvious you can scroll between smokes on statistics window. Could at least have a date?
Recipes doesn’t load. No custom recipe sequences for my smoker, don’t show menu item!
No feedback when trying to save stats. Stats don’t save!!
Doesn’t save smoker selection between loads.
Can’t progress pucks. Couldn’t preheat device or smoking element until this was done via LCD screen on iSmoker!
Have to enter pin to pair if power disconnected. Not so much of any issue!
Doesn’t remember temperature (C/F) setting.

Piece of Shit
One of the worst designed Apps I’ve ever seen. Terrible control and layout. Not sure how much they spent on developing this, but anything more than $20 was a huge waste. Whoever designed it obviously never used it to smoke anything. If I could give it negative stars I would.
Garbage
I literally can’t event select my model after installing the app. Garbage.
This app needs work bad!
First off the smoker does function great, and does great smoked items. Now your app to be able to control your smart smoker is mediocre at best. All I can do it monitor the smoker temp and adjust the thermometers cooked temps. Your charts never keep a steady flow for the days smoking, your stop button so you can adjust the smoke time and heat temps and times doesn’t work so with that you can’t adjust either temp or times on either because you can’t stop it from the app. For a $700+ smoker I was expecting a smooth running app to make smoking that much easier, I’m regretting spending the money on your smart smoker for the fact I could have bought a Bradley digital smoker for 200 less without the blue tooth. Please fix your app.
