I refuse to use one that requires bluetooth or an account. I want to turn the bitch on and go do shit for 4+hr. There's nothing fancy about the process. Some real Ron Popeil shit and they try to force apps on us.

Does it require?

This summer I spent way too much money on a grill with an app. The thing is it’s a smoker so i might run it all day and the app lets me check on it while still doing other stuff all that time.

However the app is an extra, and I would still have all functionality besides removing if the app went away. I’d be pissed losing remote functionality after spending so much money, but I’d still be able to use the grill normally

The big ones did, yeah. They actually just started the requirement while I was looking for one.

I don’t know whether to upvote you for a solid reply, or downvote the lack of functionality without an app
