Trending in the wrong direction

The app started out pretty strong, but more recently I’ve seen lots of problems. 1) Connecting to the grill at all feels hit-or-miss. Half the time it works, the other half it doesn’t. There’s no clear rhyme or reason. 2) Even when it’s connected, the app doesn’t always give you the most current information on temperature or timers. Not sure how or why this happened but now you need to tap around to force the info to update. 3) The notifications and alerts went from being useful and descriptive to being something generic like “Weber App needs attention”. This is just terrible for the overall experience. Instead of being informed that the grill is at temperature or that the timer has been completed, there’s a moment of anxiety where the full range of potential problems is on the table because of this poor messaging. This app was good at one point. It can get back there, but it needs some love from Weber’s design and dev team.

Update:
Revised down to 2 stars. This most recent mid 2023 update is really bad. The app isn’t as clear or as useful as it was before and feels like it’s lost a lot of personality along the way. Please consider rolling back this most recent update. The previous version was a better foundation from which to iterate vs this one.

When it actually Connects . . . .

Buggy.
1. Start up is painful. Will not automatically connect. Doesn't show a connection but shows the option to Disconnect. iPhone shows a Bluteooth connection but the app shows Offline. Will not recognize my wifi although the router is only six feet. Must manually connect.
2. After finally connecting all probes, Bluetooth and wifi, a temperature reading is displayed momentarily. Then Connection Lost message appears although my iPhone shows a Bluetooth connection and a router connection too.
3. After another repeated connecting effort, it may last for a while, until Bluetooth is lost showing Offline yet transmitting over wifi.
Definitely not Plug and Play easy although apparently accurate when all steps are shaking hands.
