## Description

The Tilt 2 app is the official companion for TILT hydrometers, designed for Android versions 5 through 13. It allows brewers to log specific gravity and temperature data directly to the cloud, including popular platforms such as brewfather.app, brewstat.us, monitor.log, and Grainfather.com, enabling seamless fermentation monitoring and management.

Users can also log data locally on their devices and email CSV files for easy sharing or record-keeping. The app supports calibration of the TILT hydrometer and offers unit conversions between Fahrenheit and Celsius, as well as specific gravity and degrees Plato. To ensure continuous data logging, being within range of your Tilt device or placing your phone/tablet near the fermentation vessel is recommended. Tilt 2 streamlines homebrewing by providing accurate, real-time fermentation data accessible from anywhere.

## Review summary

Users praise Tilt 2 for providing accurate, real-time fermentation data and easy hardware setup. However, the app suffers from unreliable Bluetooth connections, which also disrupt other Bluetooth devices. The logging process is cumbersome with problematic cloud integration, and temperature calibration options are often lacking. Many find the user interface confusing and difficult to navigate, detracting from the overall experience despite the hardware's quality.

### Pros

- Provides real-time fermentation gravity and temperature readings without disturbing the mash.
- Easy to set up and calibrate with simple hardware integration.
- Accurate and reliable sensor readings when connection is stable.
- Good replacement for manual hydrometers, improving brewing process understanding.

### Cons

- Bluetooth connectivity is unreliable, often disconnecting or failing to maintain connection.
- App interferes with other Bluetooth devices, causing issues like disconnecting headphones and phone calls.
- Data logging is complicated, with reliance on cloud integrations that are not user friendly and frequently fail.
- Temperature calibration is inconsistent or missing, making accurate monitoring difficult.
- User interface is confusing and clunky, with poor UX design making managing multiple devices and logs hard.
