I do find it ironic that someone who asks about a product on list
instead of Googling it themselves calls everyone who uses this product
and app lazy. Note that I don't have a problem with anyone asking about
a product or app on list, but if someone's going to take advantage of
that convenience then you shouldn't be calling others lazy just because
they find an app useful. I thin this is especially true when they know
so little about the app and product in question.

Hi Simon,
I suggest you just look up the Instant Pot online because it’s
definitely a bit more than a glorified rice cooker.
While I don’t own one of these having the app to use the instant Pot
is not about being lazy but about accessibility.
The device itself is made for preparing meals quite quickly which is
possible due to the pressure cooking. Whether that is meant for people
who are lazy or for people who simply don’t have so much time because
they work a lot and still want to cook something instead of heating up
a prepared meal in the microwave is debatable.
We recently purchased a new range from GE and the oven also can be
operated with an app. Again, while this adds some convenience as well
because you can turn it on remotely, for a blind person many ranges or
wall ovens are other wise inaccessible. All of the ranges I looked at
and which I liked had touch screens to control the oven. Many still
have knobs for the cooktop although even here some had touch controls,
but given how quickly you sometimes have to change temperatures when
you have something simmering on the stove top I think even most
companies realize a physical knob is still the most intuitive and
efficient way to do this.
Ovens are different, you usually set them and that is that and without
the app I couldn’t even use this oven unless maybe I would call Aira
everything and then try to touch the screen where the agent directs me
to touch, but then there is also the fact that they don’t know the
oven and may not be able to tell me easily how to change a certain
setting.
And yes, it’s convenient as well, a few days ago we wanted to bake a
meat loaf which we had in the freezer. It is one made by a local
German butcher and it comes raw in an aluminum loaf form. When frozen
it needs to bake for 2 hours at 350 and if defrosted 1.5 hours. My
wife and I both were working at our store that day until 6 which means
we often don’t get home until 6:30 or 6:45 and we didn’t feel like
eating at almost 9 PM. So we enabled the remote connection feature, my
wife put the meat loaf in the oven just before she left at Noon and at
5:30 PM I set the oven to 350 Fahrenheit with the app and started it.
By that time the meat loaf had of course mostly thawed out so when we
came home an hour later it was almost done, we had enough time to make
some home-made mashed potatoes, put together a salad and we ate at 7 PM.
Best regards,
Sieghard

Ok, so it’s a rice cooker pot and supermarket in a single device.
See this is why people are getting lazy,
We don’t do things without having app to help us do it.

It’s a multi-function pressure cooker which can also be a rice cooker,
slow cooker, yoghurt maker and usually do about 11 or 14 different
things. There used to be a Bluetooth model which could be operated
with an app and now there is the so-called Smart WiFi model which as
the name implies gets connected to your WiFi.

Hello all,
I am excited to report that the Instant pot with Bluetooth works
better than ever before with the iPhone in 13.3
