Compatibility
Which tablet or smartphone version is compatible with my product?
List of compatible devices can be found here.
The app is no longer compatible on Android versions 4.4.4 or lower, because of reinforced data security. As much as possible, we recommend that you update your device to a higher Android version or use another compatible device.
Updates will not only allow you to enjoy a richer experience with new features and compatibility with the latest technology, but will also protect you against possible security vulnerabilities that have been fixed in the latest versions.
Connectivity
I cannot access the internet (Wifi or mobile network) on my tablet or my smartphone in my kitchen.
An Internet connection is required only to download and update the application, and sign in to my account.
An Internet connection is not needed to use the connected feature of your product. There is no need to move your product closer to the access point (Internet router).
What happens if the connection is lost during a recipe?
If the connection between your appliance and smartphone/tablet is lost during a recipe, the two devices will be automatically synchronize as soon as the connection is re-established.
You will be able to resume your recipe at the step you were on when the connection was lost.
Does Bluetooth have to be constantly activated on my smartphone?
Bluetooth® must be enabled to synchronize the application with the device and throughout the recipe (if you are following it from your phone).
Can my appliance be used with more than one smartphone or tablet?
If you wish, you can pair multiple devices as long as you only use one account on your app.
To do so, pair each device independently. However, only one device can be connected at a time.
Where should I put my appliance to achieve the best connection?
Place your appliance on a flat, stable surface. For the best connection between your appliance and smartphone/tablet, we recommend performing all operations requiring a connection at a sensible distance.
If the connection is lost (connection symbol crossed out), move your device closer until the connection is re-established.
If the connection indicator is lit (app or product), your devices are connected.
I can't connect my tablet or smartphone to my device.
Please repeat the following operations:
- Get closer to your device.
- Check that your device is plugged into the power outlet and that the plug is working properly.
- Check that your smartphone/tablet is compatible.
- Make sure that the Bluetooth on your smartphone/tablet is enabled.
- For users of Apple tablet or smartphone, from iOS 13, also make sure that you have allowed the application to use Bluetooth, see your phone's settings.
- Repeat the pairing steps.
How to pair my device for the first time?
At the first use, pair your device with your tablet/smartphone by following the instructions on your screens, when you start a recipe step by step for example.
Can I use my appliance without the app?
Your appliance can be used without the app. However, only the app will enable you to benefit from the many advantages available when your product is connected.
