The app never connects to the grill, unless I call and get it "fixed". Then it'll work for like a week. It is EXTREMELY irritating that I paid extra for the wifi connectivity and hardly ever get to make use of it. I would highly recommend either buying a different brand grill or just getting the non-wifi green mountain models. It doesn't make sense to pay for something you never get to use.

It's a great feature to be able to connect to a grill and control it from your cell phone, I have no problem connecting to the grill's wifi, but seldomly does the app actually connect to the grill, I've tried starting and stopping app, resetting my phone, reinstalling app and using another device. It works maybe 20% of the time; disappointing because it's the primary reason I went with this grill.

Hi Jayson, it sounds like a signal strength issue, you may want to look into an upgraded antennae or WiFi extender.

Great app. With this you don't have to be next to the grill if you need to make a temperature change. You can also "set it and forget it" with the profile option. My only critique is when setting the temperature there is a slide bar. It's very difficult to get the temperature exactly right. The developers should add + and - buttons to adjust by one degree to fine tune it.
