Ratings and Reviews
Indispensable for Anova cooking
With the included guides and the ability to store favourite recipes this app makes cooking with Anova easier than ordering takeaway.
I have the WiFi + Bluetooth Anova cooker. Since setting the app up it has been almost seamless. Only one hiccough occurred when I had some WiFi mishaps. Deleting, reinstalling, and then reconnecting resolved whatever the problem was.
Getting notifications that the cooler has reached temp, that it has finished, and then being able to adjust its setting remotely is a real help when out of the house or working elsewhere at home.
Just about works.
Perhaps I’m doing something very wrong?
Perhaps not.
This app certainly does what it says - after about 3 or 4 attempts. The app frequently un-syncs/disconnects itself from the Anova device. I’ve had to reinstall the app twice because it completely failed to sync/reconnect - When it does work it is quite handy - really. I think the app is a nice idea, but in all honesty it’s usefulness really compromised by it’s highly frustrating syncing issues that complicate the sous vide experience; an app should enrich an overall experience not hinder it!
On top of the syncing issues the timer more often than not will reset itself, making it rather difficult to cook to ‘precision’.
Perhaps with some updates these issues will be fixed, and to be fair to the app it is very simple, has extensive visuals and guides but with very simple in app navigation - and WHEN it works it is a pleasure to use.
Sadly however use of the Anova device is just far easier, more practical and involves less hassle and frustration without the app. Set the temperature on the Anova device manually and ask good old Siri to give you a count down. Now there’s something that will never fail...
Well, here’s to hoping, anyway.
Great when it works
It’s very easy to cook with this and get great results. That is when the app actually connects. I’ve several times in the first week had it fail to find the device. Checked the WiFi and all on the correct network. No joy. Disconnect, trouble reconnecting, restart app, turn device on and off. Have managed to get it working each time eventually but it’s only easy and seamless when it works which isn’t as often as it should be. If you could improve the way it connects and it’s reliability and switching between devices that would be very useful...kind of essential honestly.
