### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-11-27*

Connects to prober but shows no Bluetooth connection and 0 battery when it’s fully charged leaving it unusable

### 1/5 — Bluetooth issue

*2025-09-01*

Worked great for the 3 or 4 times.  Now it won’t connect via Bluetooth.  I’m able to ‘bind’ the device to my phone but when I eject the probes to connect via blue, nothing happens!  So now it seems like a worthless box.  DON’T PURCHASE ONE!

### 1/5 — Update for Iphone16

*2025-06-27*

Doesn’t work…

### 1/5 — Wierd

*2025-04-20*

I purchased this wiz-bank technology to replace my trusty dusty $12 thermometer. As soon as I pushed it into the meat i had put into the oven 10 minutes before, it read from 0 to 185 in 4 seconds! This doesn’t seem right, said I, so thrusted tired ole trusty, and he read 85.  Weird!!!

### 1/5 — Worked one time then stopped.

*2025-03-19*

Buyer beware!

### 1/5 — Won’t connect

*2025-01-14*

Can pair but doesn’t do anything else, blank screen.  Sent one back hoping just bad one, 2nd one has same issues.

### 1/5 — Not working since I upgraded to iOS 18

*2024-11-11*

Please update the app

### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect to iPhone 16

*2024-10-24*

As the title says, it worked fine on my 15 plus. Upgraded to 16 plus and now it doesn’t connect after attempting to use.

### 3/5 — Doesn’t work with iPhone 16

*2024-10-13*

Doesn’t connect to Bluetooth with the iPhone 16 I had to purchase a different brand meat thermometer. Worked great up until then.

### 3/5 — Works with bugs

*2024-05-27*

Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but there’s an implication that it can estimate how long is left in your cook. That feature has never worked for me. It also loses connectivity every 30 seconds, so while it works in it’s mostly basic sense, it’s not a super great app… yet. An update or two could probably bring it up to 5 stars.
