Remote BBQ monitor that works!
I bought this app and the two probe BBQ thermometer a few months back on the the promise that it would be updated to allow the iPhone app to monitor temperatures over the internet - from anywhere. Well they have come through. After updating last week I spend a few days testing before writing this, and Im happy with the result. I can see two thermometers from any remote location. The frequency of update is adjustable when initially setting up the remote function. The battery on the BBQ thermometer lasted several hours updating every 2 minutes. Temperature alerts work remotely also. It will tell you when you pass the temperature that you set (high or low), and this can be adjusted within the app as you go. A few things to remember: The app does not update the temperature when it is not running (or is in the background). If you stop and restart the app, it will again begin tracking temperature, but wont have record of the temp data prior to its current session. All and all thats not a big deal to me. Also, I had to sign up for a google account and grant access to iCelcius for the remote interface. All and all, great functionality. Just what I was hoping for.
