- Detecting hot/cold spots
- Assessing the risk of mold

Food safety:
Temperature Control Points (CP/CCP):   
- Seamless documentation of measured values to fulfill HACCP specifications

### 5/5 — Chiller tech

*2026-07-11, version 31.31.31*

Are you guys going to add refrigerant R-514 for the new low pressure centrifugals? Please add it 

Thank you

### 5/5 — Works as it should

*2026-06-13, version 31.31.21*

Good app and love my 558s. Haven’t had an issue with app, gauges, probes, micron gauge, etc.. glad I went testo over fieldpiece

### 5/5 — More like this please

*2026-06-09, version 31.31.21*

I needed a handheld air flow meter that allowed for a wide range to verify built in instrumentation. Feel like I found gold in the 510i manometer. It has no screen, only a light and a button. All readings feed through this app which i configure and feed identifiers to. The exported csv files include everything making my documentation work easy as can be.

I don’t know why i need one of these manometers for home, but i want one. Probably should avoid looking at FLIR tools while i still have a checking balance.

### 3/5 — Paul

*2026-06-05, version 31.31.21*

This app could be soooooo good yet it falls down on the basics . I use it for lev testing of dust drops and There is nowhere to put a drop number. You have to put it in the information. Which ok at least it’s in the paperwork. But then you go back to the list and it only shows the customer time and date in the list NO information. So I spend hours trying to search for pod 10 out of 50 pods. It’s so frustrating. The only way to get around it is to export and name each file after a pod but if you name one wrong or miss one, you try find it in the list?  Such a shame. It just doesn’t let you rename a save file and save it in the app. That’s all it needs to do

### 3/5 — Einloggen

*2026-06-01*

☹️Es nervt einen nach jeden Ende meldet sich die App automatisch ab.
Ständiges Einloggen macht keinen Sinn.
Es wäre auch sinnvoll diese App im offline Modus zu benützen.
Wenn man solche teuern Geräte von Testo kauft erwartet man auch eine 100% App dazu .

### 1/5 — App ist nicht einwandfrei!

*2026-05-27*

Das Messgerät an sich ist super wenn man den Akku mal außer Betracht lässt . 
Allerdings die App ist eine reine Katastrophe. Wie schon öfters hier beschrieben verbindet sich das Messgerät nur nach mehrmaligen An und Ausschalten mit der App . 
Da wir ein Fachbetrieb sind und uns für das Produkt entschieden hatten ist es für uns umso ärgerlicher ,dass das Digitalisieren nur erschwert möglich ist . Warum nur einen Stern vergeben wird hat den Hintergrund , dass man beim Service nicht für Ernst genommen wird und Aussagen getätigt werden wie „ Dies ist uns nicht bekannt versuchen Sie die App auszulagern und wieder zu installieren „ . 
Da fragt man sich lesen Sie ihre eigenen Bewertungen nicht ?! 
Als letzten Versuch waren wir beim Testo Stand auf der  SHK Messe dort wurde genau dasselbe von sich gegeben . „So etwas wäre nicht bekannt man wird belächelt und man könne nicht weiterhelfen ! „
Absolute Frechheit meiner Meinung nach ein Unfertiges Programm bzw. App auf den Markt zu bringen !! 
Ich hoffe sehr ,dass es bald ein Update gibt und die Probleme behoben werden !

### 1/5 — Does not work with the testo 300

*2026-05-04, version 31.31.20*

Maybe this app works with other devices but it does not work with the testo 300

### 2/5 — Is anyone actually working on this?!

*2026-05-01, version 31.31.20*

This has to be the worst app for refrigeration I have ever used.  Do the developers actually use the stuff they produce?!  There's no way to pre configure which data is displayed on the graphics?!   Are you kidding me?!   Do you know how much time I have wasted researching high pressure, sub cooling, and liquid line temperature because the stupid defaults are useless to me?!?   This is beyond frustrating.  Every other app I have used for other manufacturers tools is more configurable and makes sense from a technicians perspective.   The testo hardware itself is great-- this app makes me regret ever buying it though!   I wish I knew the Bluetooth protocols involved -- I bet I could vibe code a replacement that blows this app away in a weekend.

### 1/5 — Favorites 557s

*2026-04-15, version 30.2.16*

Changing favorite refrigerants doesn’t “stick”. You remove one and it just goes back to a favorite. Since you can only have 5 I can’t add any which means I spend a ton of time on jobs scrolling through refrigerants. Restore to factory settings on the gauges retains the favorites from the app (with the app closed and phone not connected). I wanted to get something better but guy on marketplace that wanted to buy them has the same problem and I refunded him because he claims the product (or app) is defective.

### 4/5 — Super outils

*2026-03-24*

Génial pour observer et pouvoir analyser le fonctionnement. Un point qui pourrait être intéressant, pour les sondes de pression, c’est d’avoir les températures avec les pressions d’affichées. Ça concerne les sondes 549i. En application froid, elle affiche une pression seulement.

**Developer response:** Bonjour, merci beaucoup pour votre évaluation 4 étoiles, cela nous fait vraiment très plaisir. Quelles sondes et quel programme de mesure utilisez-vous exactement dans l'application ? Votre équipe Testo App
