    To be honest, I have a Bluetooth kettle and it’s kinda pointless, it reliably works only when I’m in the same room, at that point I can just watch the temperature on the 7digit LED display

    The process: I’m on the sofa/bed and I want to know if the kettle is done. I open the app and it’s “connecting… Connecting…”, the spinner spins for minutes until it times out. So I need to get up the lazy ass and go to the kitchen, try again the connection, it takes another 30 seconds. If I did it without the app I would have saved 3-4 minutes of rage. Because anyway it doesn’t even allow remote start (for safety, I understand), just remote monitoring. Now I just set a timer on the phone and ignore the app connection
