I mean... I just downloaded it from the app store. Probably back when the WIFI model came out and it was uncertain whether the Bluetooth model was going to continue to be supported etc. I just did a search in the app store and it comes up as the second or third result with like a 2 star rating. Not exactly encouraging as a simple user experience. Again though, as the smart cooker app kept going strong, I didn't bother playing with it as at that time, the app was really bad with VO from what everyone was saying. Again, I could simply be misremembering, but I could swear folks talking about how the Bluetooth model could also connect to this app somehow. This unfortunately will probably be the experience for all devices that depend on some sort of connectivity or app. The pressure cooker itself will probably last for many years to come, but how does that help us if the accessibility feature we specifically bought it for breaks because it's deemed no longer worth maintaining. Maybe someone can poke around on the IP site to get a definitive answer on this or play with their Bluetooth model, but I'm unfortunately in the middle of my work day and have already farted around enough online and don't really have time to do it myself.
