Just using for the first time. Using on a smoker. Nice tools and easy setup. Easy choices for selecting temperature for type of food. Very nice graph showing temperature rise over time which wouod give predictability to finishing. However, one glaring disappointment. Since the device is connected to the phone by bluetooth, its easy to get far enough away that the connection drops. Especially with something that will cook for hours. When that happens, all the history is lost and the graph starts over when you get back in range. A brand new graph starts and no history. Big disappointment. Writing this review hoping that this is something they fix on a future release. If not soon, buying something else.

Easy to use yes, handy presets, and easy to create custom ranges or max temp alarms. HOWEVER- the graphing function is basically useless. Go out of range for a split second, graph history lost. Put app in background and lock your phone to open up a little later, graph history lost. I’m currently 6 hours into an 8lb shoulder which I would have liked to see the entire cook profile. I have a spare phone I have sitting near the grill so there’s no chance of losing connection or accidentally closing the app - yet still THREE separate times now I opened my phone to check on progress and for whatever reason the graph reset, losing the entire history to that point. I never write reviews but this has me annoyed enough to warn against what I though would be a very handy ‘feature’. Hopefully developer reads this and offers some sort of update to allow graph history to be saved for at least a 24hr period so you can actually follow the entire cook even if connection is lost briefly.

It has met our expectations, and we are happy with it. This device and app are not data-supported devices by your phone provider carrier's signal to each other but by the strength of their and your device's connection to your Wi-Fi network; we've experienced no glitches and flawless use.We have used this for eighteen months, about two to four times per month, to smoke briskets and barbeque steaks.If your Wi-Fi signal is spotty, the device the probes attach to at the cooker still has an audible alarm. We can hear the alarm through insulated vinyl windows and the alert on the phone.

C'mon man. You've got a great probe tool. Easy to follow and use App. Modern day outside cooking. You're there. BUT, It's like you quit before finishing the app. Everybody has commented on it. 1) keep the temp rise history until the cook is complete. 2) fix the scaling so it's more visually useful. 3) add smart watch app so you can see the temp without carrying the phone. Dude, increase sales and brag to your friends how you've got the best in class probes and app in the world. Price is right to own the market. Get bought by Traeger. Go buy a ranch in Hawaii. But first, finish the dang app! And really, fixing just number 1 would make a lot of people happy. Fix all three, start planning retirement.
