Indoor Thermometer

I had some hopes for this app after looking at a few of their reviews, but I decided to put it on a table sitting 3 feet from my gas fireplace in my. My phone alerted me that it was too hot and had to shut down before I could use it, but before shutting down. The app stated the phone was only 68° when the iPhone said it was too hot…. Doesn’t work!

The first thing that popped up when I opened, the app was a reminder to get an update to “your QR app”. Of course I don’t have a QR app, and initially, I thought it was an update of this app. After you get by a couple of those, the app interface shows. It showed the temperature in the room that I was in at 85°F. Which is at least 20° above the correct temperature. I’m not sure if it’s possible to develop iPhone that could detect ambient room temperature because of the iPhones heat output. Then the pop-up continued, and I quit and deleted.

My thermostat broke and I didn’t have any heat today. I downloaded this app and with a little help from an electric radiator was able to keep it at a nice steady 65°. And I knew what the temperature was!
