  flip tetlow: Just got mine and should not receive it to connect to the wi-fi correctly and now will not load or allow me sign in, apk keeps crashing and just locks up. Up-Date: it was a trouble with my wireless router, I changed that out to other and everything works ok with my smartphone and smartphone.

  Thomas Chipego: 1st I have to say I spent a bunch of cash on temp probes and they all failed me until I found this company. Their products are good. I thought this would go simple, it wasn't. Hang in there it's worth it. I had a ton of issues with the WiFi connect, but I read the reviews here and I figured it out. Create sure you kind the WiFi case sensitive correctly, and it will be ok. It took a while but I got it working and it's working well. I'm cooking a brisket tomorrow so I will modernize if I have issues.

  Ed McDonnell: Recent ver seems to have fixed issues from earlier reviews. Nice to know I can monitor the smoker from anywhere if I have to run out to the shop or something. Worked flawlessly. Setup was simple for me, but it should be a challenge for some not comfortable with network settings. Tech help is good though, and accessible with no wait.

  M M: Thermoworks must have created a few changes because this works flawlessly now. I can shut my smartphone off and turn it back on and it does not stop logging. Worked good for my latest few smokes. I am using it right now for our Thanksgiving turkey! One improvement would be the ability to print graphs instead of having to export to a spreadsheet, turn into a graph and then print. Baby steps! I am dure it will happen.

  Bob Dankert: Works beautiful simple. I had problem connecting right after receiving the unit, but I hadn't charged the smoke gateway (though the manual says you could before use). I charged it fully and was then able to connect the gateway to my network with ease. The apk works well,push notifications come through as expected. I want there was more integration options but am hopeful an API or related will be accessible at some point.

  Jason Schwerdlin: Keeps crashing after initial setup. Have reinstalled, rebooted, etc. Works ok on iPad. Gotta fix this Modernize, I was able to log in on my iPad, dissociate my smoke gateway, then set it up once more on my android device smartphone. If I didn't have the iPad, I'd have been dead in the water. Still not a awesome idea to have to kind in the name of the wireless connection instead of presenting a list like chromecast setup Further modernize, the apk crashes if you disconnect the probes from the unit. It will only begin back up if there are no probes attached and will then crash once more if you attack a probe

  Troy Mitchell: This apk is an embarrassment to an otherwise good company. It can't show you with a list of SSID's. Instead, you have to kind it in yourself. On top of that, I think they have some case sensitivity active as I think that is contributing to the difficulty getting the Smoke Gateway to sync to wireless connection properly. Provide the ability to choose an SSID from a list and I bet alot of frustration and failed connections go away. The graphing feature is nice, but, ultimately useless. As soon as the cellphone goes to sleep, you lose the graph and any data points since then as the apk loses connection. The data could either be hosted in the cloud (Themoworks) or the smartphone could not be allowed to sleep while the apk is begin. They do have an option for the latter, but, it doesn't work. Very awful apk from a maker of good devices.

  Apk keeps crashing (resetting data) during during a smoking session. This is not useable for tracking or tuning my smoker. #UPDATE#... I've been using this apk for a while now. It still crashes, loses data, or just forgets it's connected devices. I can usually recover during a smoking session by going into my smartphone Settings, Apks section and Force Stop the Smoke Gateway apk. Then go back and reset it. For some reason this usually finds the devices once more and the data prior to the crash. I hope Thermoworks figures this out soon. I am researching another approaches and equipment.

  Shaun Currier: Buggy. Looks like Thermoworks went with the budget apk developers.

  Kip Granson: I really wish to like this apk, and hopefully they can fix this moving forward, but the fact that your smartphone has to be on and on the apk for any data to receive updated or for any alarm to go off is just not acceptable. I wish to be able to have this device running while I'm away from home and receive temps from my smoker. Maybe custom alarms would be awesome too, not just the default device sound. I would expect more from the apk for a $100 device.

  Justin Hembree: Apk crashed multiple times during a long cook. Each time the graphing starts over, so the graphing function isn't useful if you wish to see the end to end results. If they can fix this problem I would probably give it 5 stars.

  I accept with some of the negatives. The apk needs much improvement to be useful. Thermoworks makes perfect products; unfortunately this one is a large dissapointment. Smoke itself is unbelievable and highly suggested. But the gateway apk constantly disconnects, restarting the graphing, and has limited functionality. I don't see how this is useful over the smoke remote, besides possibly checking temperatures away from home

  John Fallon: Looks like I'm in the same boat as everyone else. No go on 8.1... Stuck at WiFi setup, can't power off gateway.... Try your apk with the most updated ver of Android device please or your product is useless!!!

  Chuck Cook: Cannot receive past wireless connection setup on Oreo 8.1. this apk is horrible. C'mon Thermoworks. Modernize: was able to setup apk by going to Android device settings .. Apks .. and turning on all permission for the smoke apk manually eg. smartphone, place, etc. Alarms on apk don't create any sounds though. What type of alarm is that? Please improve this apk!

  Christopher Huddleston: My device won't even stay on the apk. I'm in the middle of smoking something and go to check the temp and my device is gone. I test to add it once more, and it just goes through the steps to add it once more. What garbage are you trying to sell? I can't even use this device I paid for because your apk won't work. Receive someone who actually knows how to create an apk cause the people you got on it now have no damn clue on what they're doing.

  Jason Buzzell: Apk crashed after initial setup, and now fails to begin. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no change. Don't have an iOS device so waste of $$$ until it is fixed.
