Ratings and reviews

When first installed, last year, app worked as advertised. But after countless monthyly T-Mobile security updates, OS update, it's stopped worked and crashes every time you try to open it. Phone see's it, but app stops. I've sent like 10 logs to the developer. Even the poor saps over in Apple world are having the same issues. SO, instead of blaming Apple and Google, I'm pointing it right back at Napoleon. First off, the app has NO REASON to have the permissions it does. Location? Contacts? Bull! I fired off a email to the place I got my grill and probe requesting they stop selling the device since it doesn't work as it should. So, don't bother downloading.

USELESS ON THE BLUETOOTH SIDE OF THE PRODUCT!!! Once connected via bluetooth on my galaxy s8+ you can monitor temps. But as soon as you go out of the app during cooking and go back in to the app to look at the temps it does not recognize that the base is still there and makes you go back to the base to make it discoverable again to view temps remotely. The reason I bought this bluetooth thermometer was so that I didnt have to walk out to my smoker ten times to check temps during cooking.

When I first bought this a year ago with my Napoleon BBQ it worked one time. I have tried over and over to use it again. I've uninstalled the app and reinstalled it again, changed the batteries and still nothing. This is Junk. To bad cause this could be a great product since my BBQ is Amazing. Will be buying another system soon.
