2. App Download and Pairing

1. Download the 'INKBIRD' app from your smartphone's app store (iOS or Android).
2. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone.

Troubleshooting

Connectivity Issues

• Range Limitations: While the INT-11P-B offers an extended Bluetooth range, environmental factors such as thick walls, metal structures, or other electronic devices can interfere with the signal. Try moving closer to the probe or repositioning the charging case for better signal strength.
• App Connection: Ensure your smartphone's Bluetooth is on and the INKBIRD app has the necessary permissions. Restarting the app or your phone can sometimes resolve connection problems.
• Probe/Case Connection: Ensure the probe is properly seated in the charging case. If the probe loses connection to the case, try re-inserting it or ensuring both are charged.

Inaccurate Readings

• Improper Insertion: Verify the probe is inserted into the thickest part of the meat and past the safety line, avoiding bones.
• Temperature Limits: Ensure the food and ambient temperatures are within the specified operating ranges of the probe.

Battery Not Charging
