Ratings and Reviews
Lacks important features, poor internet connectivity
This is for the app, not the grill. In short, there’s a lot of room for improvement. Connection and control via Bluetooth isn’t terrible, you can quickly control and set what you need within the otherwise rudimentary interface.
As soon as you turn to wifi though, the app has a hard time keeping and maintaining connection, and requires precision location services for poorly explained reasoning. It struggles to keep a on my WPA2 home network, and as soon as I’m off my home network connection there’s 0 connection to remotely monitor what my grill is doing. Lifetime is significantly behind their competitors here.
The overall interface is clunky and lacks responds poorly to input. The copywriting is awful and shows a major lack of polish. Multiple features in the menu are “under development” and have been for significant time. The “Instructions” page just links to the product homepage and none of the link functionality on said page works in-app.
There needs to be significant effort put into fixing this application for it to be useful, let alone competitive against other wifi-connected pellet smokers.
Make grilling & smoking easy
Love being able to monitor my cook and adjust the temperatures from my easy chair. Lifetime’s new smoker grill is fantastic.
I was told that they are working on additional improvements to the app.
Makes smoking on the grill fool proof
This app makes it so easy to monitor your meats while smoking from anywhere you are. It helps make smoking easy especially for a first time smoker.
