### 1/5 — A huge disappointment

*2025-07-04, version 3.1*

I really can’t think of a single positive thing to say about this app. The concept is great, but nothing about it works well. The user interface is clunky. The temperature readings are unreliable. And the device continuously disconnects from the app, despite multiple iOS updates and app updates. The entire experience has been frustrating.

### 1/5 — App ist voller Bugs, Hardware unzuverlässig, Kundendienst reagiert nicht

*2024-12-25, version 3.1*

Dem Titel gibt es leider nicht viel hinzuzufügen. Das Thermometer hängt sich häufig auf, reagiert dann nicht mehr auf Temperaturänderungen bzw. aktualisiert die Temperaturen nicht mehr. Dann hilft nur noch ein Hardreset, indem man den Einschaltknopf gedrückt hält, was von unterwegs nicht möglich ist. Auch lässt sich das Gerät teilweise gar nicht mehr abschalten, ohne daraufhin in einen Loop zu verfallen, in dem es sich ständig von selbst wieder anschaltet. Die Bluetooth-Verbindung reicht auch bei direktem Sichtkontakt keine fünf Meter. Die WLAN-Verbindung ist trotz hervorragender Netzwerkqualität extrem unzuverlässig und auch bei bestehender WLAN-Verbindung besteht oft kein Kontakt zur Cloud. Die Cloud-Kurven zeigen teilweise absurde Höchstwerte von 70.000 Grad, womit die Kurve nutzlos wird, weil die tatsächliche Temperaturentwicklung im Vergleich nicht mehr sichtbar ist. Die App zeigt teilweise nur noch einen Fühler an und ignoriert sämtliche anderen. Und der Kundendienst schweigt zu allem. Grauenhaftes Produkt, ich werde wechseln.

### 1/5 — Cant connect to Wifi

*2024-05-25, version 3.1*

Loading graphic is persistent when trying to find wifi networks so I can only use this thing with Bluetooth. Wifi was the whole reason I bought it.

### 1/5 — Könnte besser sein…

*2023-04-23, version 3.1*

Hoher Stromverbrauch und hat bisher 1x die Timer Einstellungen verloren. 

Update: Völlige Eskalation in der Nacht. Meldet ständig essen fertig obwohl die Temperatur nicht erreicht wurde. Neustart, Alarmeinstellung raus nehmen brachte kein Erfolg. Absoluter Müll

### 1/5 — Great hardware, worst software ever

*2023-03-19, version 3.1*

I’ve had my grilleye pro for about two plus years and it’s been a battle ever since purchase. Either the Wi-Fi doesn’t work (constantly disconnects), or the probes don’t show on the app, but they show on the hardware, or I get random disconnected alarms even when I’m not using the device. 

Long story short, there’s tons of better devices out there and Grilleye obviously doesn’t care enough to make updates.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2022-12-17, version 3.1*

Sends me notifications for hours and it’s not even on.

### 1/5 — Push-Nachrichten werden dauerhaft gesendet

*2021-12-28, version 3.1*

Trotz nicht angeschlossener Temperatur-Fühler werden permanent Push-Nachrichten versendet. Nur durch Deinstallation der App zu fixen. Selten eine solch nervige und schlecht funktionierende App gesehen. Wenn man weiß, dass der Hersteller will, dass man auf das Nachfolgemodell mit anderer App umsteigt, könnte man Vorsatz vermuten. War mein letztes Gerät von dem Hersteller.

### 5/5 — Love It! (Watch app has a bug)

*2021-12-24*

I love Grill Eye Pro! It connects to phone via Bluetooth and WiFi so I can walk around house and not be concerned about loosing Bluetooth connection. I use 4 probes so I can monitor the temperature for each steak during grilling. I can leave my phone on the charger and monitor temperatures with my Apple Watch as I walk around! The only weird thing is that the Apple Watch app shows temperature in Fahrenheit but shows a “C” next to the temperature denoting Celsius. I just ignore the C because the temperature reading is obviously Fahrenheit. I have tried change the settings in the app to see if I can trigger the app to switch to show “F” but it always remains “C”.

**Developer response:** Hello Dear Grilleye User,

 Thank you for your review. Enjoy reading & keep supporting us :) If you have any feedback or suggestion, you could write to us at support@grilleye.com. We would love to hear from you! 

The GrillEye® Team

### 4/5 — Improved app, Great customer service

*2021-11-22, version 3.1*

I love my Grilleye product, and the app seems pretty solid, but I haven’t really tested out all of the functionality yet. Their support is above average - the only way I can see to improve it would be to have US-based staff, but then they’d also need support in all other nationalities, which would be unreasonable to expect. 

I should note, I used my grilleye a lot when I first bought it, but due to life I stopped grilling for the last couple years. So my notification complaint (below) may be resolved now. I’ll try to remember to update my review once I’ve had a chance to test it out again. 

Their support was great in my opinion. When I emailed them about a pairing issue, they had me set up a video call with their support. They also sent several follow up emails because I never got back to them, due to being incredibly busy. I just got off the video call, which was awesome (aside from having to schedule it super early because their support was based in France). They helped me fix my issue, which also fixed my one complaint that I had with my grilleye forever ago. Before, it was always stuck in Celsius, but they’ve fixed it with an update so now it stays in Fahrenheit as desired. 

My only gripe: I noticed previously that the app had some issues yelling at me when it got to the specified temperature unless I had the app open and my phone unlocked, but (a) that was a long time ago, I haven’t used it in a while - it may be fixed now - and (b) I may not have allowed notifications, which are probably required for that functionality to work - I usually don’t give my apps notification privileges because the constant pop ups from most apps piss me off.

### 1/5 — Graphing was working but stopped

*2021-10-18, version 3.1*

Forever circle of death
