### 1/5 — Not Even Functional

*2026-07-10, version 2.9.0*

The app completely doesn’t work. I invested in this particular kiln  after being told I could monitor and connect through the app and it turned out to be an outright lie. Do NOT purchase the Skutt KMT kiln sitter.

### 5/5 — Meh.

*2026-06-14, version 2.9.0*

I’ve had this free app for years and it is nice to be able to monitor the temperature but can’t see the history or skip ahead or anything else.  There is a place that tells you if you want to see more to upgrade to premium but there is no place to do that.  I would happily upgrade for as much as I use my kiln.  Frustrating.

### 1/5 — So disappointing

*2026-06-03, version 2.9.0*

The app is very frustrating at best and really old at worst. So ridiculously complicated to just connect to your kiln.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-03-31, version 2.9.0*

Nothing works

### 2/5 — Pretty disappointing

*2026-03-08, version 2.9.0*

I love my kiln. I’ve got the touch screen KM which rocks and I love being able to see the graph of the kiln cycle. This app falls woefully short of expectations. There’s no over-time displays to show you where you are in your run. And if you happen to switch to the “Old View” and try to return to the “New View” the app completely forgets your kiln and you have to reconnect (which you cannot do while the kiln is running).

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2026-02-19, version 2.9.0*

It used to work, but now it doesn’t. Super annoyed and mad about it.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPad

*2026-02-11, version 2.9.0*

Screens don’t display correctly on an iPad

### 1/5 — Painful

*2025-12-24, version 2.9.0*

As someone who’s designed and developed household name applications for a living it’s so painful to see a company who turns out world class kilns have such a poorly designed and buggy application. Seriously Skutt, hire one competent product manager, user experience designer and engineer. That’s all it would take given the simplicity of your app.

### 1/5 — Why is this such a terrible app?

*2025-12-20, version 2.9.0*

Dead links, endless loops, poor UI, ambiguous icons, lack of utility. It has it all!

### 1/5 — App is crAPP

*2025-12-10, version 2.9.0*

Purchased the skutt kiln with this app specifically for remote monitoring. As a basic monitoring app the interface is beyond not user friendly. It’s as if someone decided, “let’s make an app that could be useful, but let’s make sure it’s not.” But at least I could check my kiln’s temp. Now after their ‘update’ I can’t even log in. Can’t update my password… so I’m sure the new interface is lovely and the app probably works perfectly… once you’re logged in (okay, doubtful). Of course calling skutt’s helpline is an exercise in wasting time because they ‘know it’s an issue’ but it’s the company that built the app that has to fix it so I should call them. Seriously? Hard no. That’s YOUR job Skutt tech support, et al.

Oh and on top of paying about a grand extra for the kiln, skutt wants me to pay a monthly access fee for the full use of the app? Are you kidding me? What a joke. Highly DO NOT recommend this product or the app.
