About this app

Meatsitter is the remote control app for your Meatsitter wireless bluetooth thermometer that can remotely monitor the temperature of your preferred cooking device and the food you’re cooking at the same time. You do not need the Meatsitter device to use the app. The app can be used as a periodic cooking timer with voice notifications, vibrations, and popup alerts. The Meatsitter app also has USDA-safe internal temperatures for a variety of different foods preloaded into it so all you have to do is select the food you’re cooking, insert the device's premium Type K Oven Needle Thermocouple Probe with stainless steel oven safe overbraid cable into your food, and you’ll receive alerts on your phone when the internal temperature of your food has reached the first alarm followed by the USDA safe internal temperature alarm, ensuring that your food is cooked to perfection every time. Using two alarms, you can flip your steak ahead of time to use reverse searing techniques. Finally, you can interact with each alarm in real-time. The Meatsitter device is also very versatile because to power it, you can use 2 AA batteries or a mini USB cord and your phone’s 5V power adapter. Unlike most other cooking thermometers on the market, Meatsitter lets you use industry-standard type K mini thermocouple connectors (Including food in oven, bbq, sauce pan, sous vide, gator clip, liquid, and air probes) that allow you to use various lengths of probes. With Meatsitter, you can also monitor your food and grill temperatures from as far away as your WIFI range using two phones -- one phone connected to Meatsitter over bluetooth and your home’s wifi, and a second phone running the Meatsitter app connected over wifi directly to the phone that’s connected to Meatsitter over bluetooth -- no need for a dedicated IOT gateway.
