GrillTime Reviews

Don’t waste your money on GrillTime. I’ve used the free Omaha Steaks app for a long time. That works great, but was wanting something with maybe a little more. GrillTime is not it. You can identify all the items you want to cook and their doneness. But beyond that, GrillTime does not calculate when to start cooking the various items if you want to finish them all at the same. Nor does it allow you to start all timers at once and notify you when to start each item or to track each item easily. You have to manually click each item to start. The free Omaha Steaks app lets you do all of this. GrillTime doesn’t do much more than put the timer of your clock app into a different shell.

Not much better than the timer in the Clock app on iPhone. Yes, you can have multiple timers going but getting them all to end together seems not to be an option. You have to do it manually. Not worth the $1.99.

I’ve used GrillTime for years. Here are two fixes needed ASAP: 1. The ability to manually sort each time (drag it up or down the list ) so you can arrange the list for like or descending time food items. 2. The option to subtract minutes from preset timers. You can add +1 currently but can’t subtract. Hope to see this needed update or might be time to move to the Weber app or others. Thanks !

At present this a timer with some instructions. The times given are pretty close if using an evenly heated grill, and no app would be able to ascertain differently heated areas, that's up to the user.

Some of the things it needs, besides a more intuitive UI...
1. An option for flipping alarms. The default wakes people in neighboring houses.
2. A synchronized start time that allows you to start the item taking the longest to grill and then notifies you when to start the next longest, etc. This would result with everything finishing at the same time without requiring you to devote your full attention to grilling and instead being able to enjoy your beer, wine, and friends.
3. Mini notifications that tell you when to flip things requiring more than one flip. Sausages for example.
4. And flipping an item requiring only one flip isn't exactly half of the total cooking time. Most meat needs a little longer on the first side than time on the other side.

If these things were included, I'd be willing to pay $3.99 to $4.99 a year.

I personally love GrillTime because it really helped me start out grilling. I’ve used many of the recommendations in GrillTime and my food turned out great. I love the layout the recipes, and everything except one thing. The custom recipes/alarm timing. Currently, in the custom area, you can only set a time and it defaults to flip when halfway done. It would be much more useful if you could set multiple alarms in one recipe. Such as something that has to be cooked on all sides and needs to be flipped at a 1/4 done, 2/4 done, and 3/4 done through the set time instead of just flipping it halfway. This also goes for some of the preset recipes. Ex. The hot dog recipe says to leave it on the grill for 8 minutes, and then rolling the hot dog every 2 minutes. When you use the timer the only time the alarm goes off is once the 8 minutes is up. If the alarm went off every two minutes then that would prevent me from having to constantly check my phone (with my meat-juicy hands) to see when two minutes hit. This is a small fix but this would help sooooo much. Thanks

Easy to use. Very generic but can help you keep time when grilling with good suggestions for grilling times. I use butane gas grill that is easy to maintain specific heat so works great for me. It would definitely be harder to try to use on a charcoal or smoker grill. Anyway, as with anything, practice makes the perfect!! Bon appetite!!

Works great. Instructions are perfect for Weber. It just needs an alert to tell you when to flip as well

Love GrillTime! Use it every time I grill and everything comes out perfect! Don't know what I'd do without it!

Very helpful and easy to use.

Love it use it every time. No complaints. Wife says I’m the master griller.

Great app comes in handy when grilling

Next to my wireless thermometer, this app is the most indispensable tool when it comes time to fire up my grill and smoker.

Works perfectly every time!!

I use this app exclusively for their recommendations on temperatures and cooking time. The program is incredibly accurate. Love it!

Always use it when grilling. Now when I grill no more guessing when the food is ready.

My husband makes fun of me because I use this, but whenever I do what I grill turns out great.

GrillTime is my go to for grilling. Has never failed me, but would like to see interface update.

Since I started using GrillTime, everything comes out just right. No more over or under cooked meat. I highly recommend.

Without a doubt THE BEST. Notice that sometimes may be off by about a minute... just add the minute in the timer and go... no better app period!!

If tried several others, but this is my go to app for grilling. I use almost every weekend to grill steak, salmon, burgers, bratwurst (brats), and hot dogs.
