"The old app, as in the first iterations used to control the connect box, was much better. Please Grainfather, everything broke when you implemented all the community and recipe tools and made it mandatory for programming. Give us the option to run it in a barebones fashion, and make that stable. Kg malt in, wort volume out, temperature steps and boil addition timings. That is ALL the user should need to input into the app to get the brewday started."

"New Update.. Since the new app update Grainfather tells me to add 40litres of sparge water. The Grainfather will reach its boil point and just hangs.. I have done over 40brews and this has been the worst update to the app. Not impressed... Dear Grainfather, Get new app programmers"

"Navigation system is very confusing, often make selection for controller option then lose access back to recipe and have to start again. Did not use to be this confusing or annoying before. Also found glitches during brew eg mash time continuing past the time specified, remedied by moving to next step, but means supervision is necessary."

"This App has yet to finish a single brew day without needing reset and usually fails to update to current brew step, absolute trash."

"Dropped brew session during brew. This may be due to the way the android operating system works with blue tooth. I`m not sure how to fix this problem other than to provide a reset on the brew session with the controller to mitigate the problem. A note in the help system on a interim fox would be helpful."

"I love it! I don`t understand the 1☆ reviews? This app (& hardware) works flawlessly for me (s8 & s10); I`m only on brew #8 but find it simple & effective for entering, finding, sharing and managing recipes. Bluetooth connects immediately then controls & prompts me through the whole brew process. The app keeps track of past brews, (dates, mash temps, my brew notes, fermentation stats, tilt readings, conditioning +). Lots of Calculators! There was a learning curve as with anything (2 brews)."

"I`m sorry but... The look is great, but the functionality sadly is not.. BT hardly works, app crashes, not possible to ``resume`` a brew after crash, have to start over and suddenly the 60 minutes mash became 60 secs and the whole brew turned into chaos😂. Brewing with the app was shaky last year but now its almost impossible. Leaving the phone standing 1 meter from the GF, screen on, doing nothing else but brewing then it works kind of ok... All other scenarios are no go at the moment.."

"Great app. however, I own several G40s and use them at the same time. It seems impossible to make several batches in different tanks at the same time with the same app. Anyone can help? Thanks Edit : still nothing? It will be a great feature. Thanks"
