Great app for the Ember mug

This app is very useful for giving you better management of your mug.

So much better than native app!

Highly recommend. My mug had stopped charging which led me down a rabbit hole of online searches. Finally found this app and voila! Problem solved and a much more responsive and easier to use/navigate experience. Appreciate you!

Wonderful App

Works great, Dynamic Island and watch notifications are very nice. Ditch Ember’s official app, you won’t regret it.

Better than the Ember app

& worth the $

Excellent App

This app is so superior to the native Ember Mug app. It opens quickly, doesn’t log out out every few days, and just runs faster. It is EASY to use (which is really all you want from an app that controls your coffee mug temperature).

There are some cool features that are locked behind a paywall (which I don’t pay for). Those would be neat but are definitely not necessary. The free functionality alone is worth it.

Do not use the regular Ember Mug app. This is better!

Works a treat!

Haven’t used the official app since downloading Mug Monitor

Great app, the subscription not being family shared is a huge miss.

Basically same as the title. Love the app, but the subscription needs to family shareable.

So good, embarrassing for Ember

How embarrassing is it that a third party app is better than the first party app for a *smart mug*? This fixes so many of the shortcomings that the Ember experience has overall. Live activity, connection stability, clean and clear interface.

Upgrades Your Ember Mug

Great design, excellent features. The notifications and live activity support are a huge upgrade for the mug.

Love love love!

Breathed new life into a mug I thought had no purpose left!

The only app that connects to my Ember 1 mugs!

I am so happy with this app! So glad I found it because the Embers app doesn't confectionery my mugs. I happily paid just to support the developer.

Amazing

Better than the official Ember app, works flawlessly

Love this

Makes my Ember mug so much better and easier to use!

Goodbye Ember App

Holy cow, it's amazing what someone who actually cares about the product can do. This app is miles better than Ember’s — I deleted that one. The $4/year is easily worth it for the Live Activity alone. I’ve also had zero re-pairing issues with multiple mugs, which was a weekly headache with Ember. My only nitpick is the app icon; I’d love a cleaner or customizable option. Overall, great app.

I really like this!

A very nice upgrade from the OEM Ember app. More useful and more fun!

I love the Apple Watch feature. Would love to see that become more robust and maybe even an actual full fledged watch app

A huge upgrade

I love the Ember mug, but the regular ember app has become borderline unusable bloatware. This third-party app is focused on just one thing: making the mug work, and doing it incredibly well. Everyone with an Ember mug should use this app.

The extra features are also worth the inexpensive subscription, IMO — the live activity monitor integrates well with Apple Watches, largely replacing a feature that Ember killed on their own app a year ago.

amazing!

having it on my lock screen is sooo nice

Better than the original

As title. Delete the ember app and get this.

Great companion app

Exactly what I was looking for to enable live activities and improved Bluetooth connectivity - really well done!

Fantastic App!

This is THE must-have app for Ember Mug. I love how this app uses Live Activities with Dynamic Island, the lock screen, and Apple Watch Smart Stack. The mug info even shows up on my Mac as a little coffee cup on my menu bar. And what really stands out is how well this app stays reliably in constant contact with my Ember mug.
