Either the app or Bluetooth does not work
The thermometer works by itself. This app cannot connect to the device. I am very tech-savvy and it appears that either the device’s Bluetooth is defective or the app is defective.
Why same price as competitors, but so much worse
Great product and potential, but app hi looks like it was made for the first phone as well as the interface being lacking

Just poor all around. Tossed mine in trash. Not worth effort or price I paid. JRV
Needs update
Although range not good it worked fine for a year but not now. Phone recognises the device but doesn’t open up the program when it is selected anymore. Can only use as manual thermometer now. Back and forward to BBQ
Perfect
Does exactly what it’s suppose to do - cooked a perfect lamp roast using this app with associated hardware.
Mode section
Interface doesn’t match the manual, I can’t locate the Mode Section???
Great device, really bad app.
Constants pop up error messages telling you that you out of Bluetooth range and reminding you that all the probes are not attached. Super obnoxious.
Not intuitive on how to adjust temps it has a steep learning curve.
No way to silence alarm with out adjusting temp in app, then it wants to restart your graph and timer.
Randomly loses connection then you have to go back in and refund the device and you lose your graph history and timer.
The concept for what the app can do is amazing but the execution comes across as a beta that never should have been deployed.

Don’t waste your money
This thing is so out dated and is a waste of money. Bluetooth is horrible, not all the features on this app even work. Very cheap idk how else to say it.
Smokin’ Joe
Bluetooth is irrelevant as poor range means you have to sit next to bbq/smoker for app to remain connected. My 8 hour slow cook meant having to abandon this device and go back to manual checking with stand alone thermometer by regular trips from inside as I had done previously.
PIA
Every time I open my phone with this going I get the errors probe 3 and 4 not attached, of course I DONT HAVE PRODE 3 and 4. Gotta get through those errors. Then I get low BT signal while inside my house, oh yeah that over road the missing probes 3 and 4 so now that’s back up. It should have a setting in me which proves I have and use. I WILL NEVER BY PROBES 3 and. 4 and will probably be looking for another unit.

Horrendous app
Still using very very old iPhone interface, in desperate need of an update.
Terrible functionality within the app with very little options, pretty poor range with the device too.
If I had known how bad this app would be I wouldn’t have bought the thermometer and definitely won’t be recommending it, purely based on the app.

Bluetooth range is horrible!!
Holding my phone 1 foot from the unit I get the annoying error message that the signal is weak.
Absolute Rubbish!
Absolute rubbish product and even worse App! Do not waste your money!!
App has stopped working
Can’t connect to the device anymore. Used to work fine. Needs to be updated.
Could be better
So far I like the thermometer and the app. Two of my complaints where improvements could earn more stars: 1. The annoying pop up message that says Bluetooth signal is weak and you may be disconnected. That pops up way too much. Just give us a message when we do in fact disconnect. Or let us disable that message altogether. Also, the Bluetooth range isn’t good. Says up to 300’. Maybe in a straight line with zero obstacles could you get that kind of range. So improve those and I would give it 5 stars.

Rubbish Product
Do not buy this product. You would be better burning your cash in the BBQ. Absolutely horrible App. No range (right now, it’s zonking at on a distance of about 20ft). Zero intuition in the design and layout.
Just a very, very poor overall product.
Note to Apple team, apps like this deserve the ability to give half star ratings.

Awful
I will be standing next to the device and get an out of range warning. Very poor overall. Now when I open the app it says no device found. Not worth it. Much better products out there. Do not buy this device.
Needs update
In apple’s latest iOS ,when phone screen turns off Bluetooth drops out and needs to be reconnected, looses timer and graphs
Not worth the money
As others have stated the app and or the device do not stay connected over the advertised distance. The controller can be sitting next to the phone and you can see the signal strength drop until it no longer registers and the temp graph is gone, very frustrating over long cooks.
Poor range
App is archaic and clunky at best. I’m standing next door on it right now but it’s saying there’s no signal.
Needs some serious attention!!
