The app is super easy to use but the setup was a bit cumbersome. The meat is awesome. Easy to use and setup.

I smoke meats, so the 150° max temp i use is just a bump on the bottom of a 350° graph. The magnets are great for the *. I smoke quite often on our treager pellet *.

Only thing you could improve is color coded temp probes. I also wish that the temperature graphs would auto-scale. First, ice water. Second, room temp.

Cons

Quality


Very accurate2, app is flexible, very useful in monitoring temperatures multiple places.

Competitiveness


Price very reasonable compared to other wi-fi thermometers.

    If you let the app sleep for a while and then come back to check temperatures theres going to be a lag


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I suppose it is downloading the data from some sort of server


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I used to use bluetooth thermometers but the range was too small


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The govee home app is at best 2 stars


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It does work but if the app was better i would rate it 5 stars overall


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It does the job but it is as marginal as it can be and still be functional


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    First its all part of the iot trend and requires the user to create an account on some distant server for no real purpose other than to collect user data


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The vast majority of the app is smart home focused so cook monitoring seems like an afterthought
