The Weber Connect App Keeps Getting Better and Better!

Weber has heard our fans and we are working to bring to life all of your suggested improvements to the Weber Connect app.  We are excited to share with you some of the updates we have made over the course of the summer, many of which were based on your feedback.

Please check back often as there will be more updates being released every few weeks. In order to never miss an important app release, we highly encourage you to update your phone settings to automatically download the Weber Connect app updates!

We’re excited to announce that we’ve refreshed the Weber Connect app!

Check out the new recipes section, added cook programs, and an overall enhanced user experience. Here is what you can expect:

• Refreshed app experience – enhanced features and navigation.
• New Recipes – you asked, we listened! Check out the new recipe section.
• More Cook Programs - includes fan favorites, such as BBQ Ribs.
• Updated Grilling Dashboard  - it’s easier than ever to track the progress of your food with a progress dial, ETA, and step-by-step assistance.
• Simplified Start menu and app navigation – executing those perfectly grilled meals has never been easier.
• In-app Timer setup - set timers directly in the app.

• We have improved the WiFi setup experience so you can now easily select your local private WiFi network from a list and simply type in your password.
• Always know what improvements you are getting with each app update with our “What’s New” notification screens.

We resolved two main bugs that users were experiencing, impacting their grilling experience. 

• First, we fixed the bug that only allowed the Weber Connect Hub to show it was charged to 85%. With this new app update, the Hub will accurately display the correct charge percentage, no longer stopping at 85%. 
• Similarly, we corrected a bug that was causing the ambient probe to read 680° F.  Now, the ambient probe will accurately reflect the temperature of your grill.

Over the course of the summer, we have done a lot of behind the scenes work to improve your experience with the Weber Connect app and Hub.  A few of the items we worked to improve are:

• Connectivity and server stability
• Cook Program selection and categorization
• Bug fixes for target temperature setup
• Improved WiFi setup with “Extend your Range”
• Multiple bug fixes for iOS and Android
• …and many more
