Question 1

This says it has wifi. can i monitor the meat away from the house? like if i run to the store and leave the smoker going?

Accepted Answer

Hi Jeffery! Although we do not condone leaving your smoker unattended, with MEATER Cloud, you can monitor your cook from anywhere! All you need is a second smart device (like another phone or tablet) to bridge your cook data from Bluetooth to WiFi. Then with MEATER Cloud, you can go to the store, park, gym, or anywhere you have internet/data connection on your phone to get alerts and monitor your cook. To see it in action, check out this video: https://youtu.be/_LhGcHsPEdo.

We also released a new feature called Cook Share that allows you to share your live cook with anyone using a web browser (they don't even need the MEATER app). This means you or your friends/family will be able to monitor your cook on any computer, phone, or tablet. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us: support@apptionlabs.com. Thank you and cheers!

Question 2

How do i get the apption labs "meater" app to work with alexa?

Accepted Answer

Please follow these simple steps:

1.	Go to settings in the MEATER app and sign up for a MEATER Cloud account (remember your email and password)
2.	Open your Alexa app. Search and enable the MEATER Skill – You’ll need to enter the same MEATER Cloud sign-in details (above).
3.	Once completed, start a cook and you’ll be able to ask Alexa internal or ambient temperatures as well as how much time is remaining or elapsed on your cook.

Note: Always start your request with "Alexa, ask MEATER..."

Enjoy!

Question 3

How many times per minute is the temperature read by the probe thermometer?

Accepted Answer

60 times. Once per second.

Question 4

negative reviews mostly based on connectivity and range problems. What is the company doing to address these problems? Is version 2 coming?

Accepted Answer

I get about 6 feet via BT with oven door or grill lid closed. Support is lousy. They claim slow response is due to lack of personnel. I bet they're overwhelmed with complaints. So far theyve done nothing but tell me to try WIFI. They want you to build a bridge by connecting another cell or tablet and leave it near griil or oven while cooking. Put it in baggie if it's raining or snowing! Had i known, NEVER would have bought it. Junk in my opinion. 
Bottom line is the BT does NOT work as advertised. 
Get a REDI-CHEK thermomter on Amazon. $10 lees and remote works 300 ft away. You can program time and temp alerts also. REDI-CHEK unlike this MEATER worms flawlessly. 
IMHO MEATER spent more on the hype, fancy packaging and marketing videos than design and testing.
