## Review summary

Bartlett KilnAid offers real-time kiln monitoring and occasional notifications, which helps you see what your kiln is doing remotely. However, the app is plagued by bugs, lacks firing history and remote control capabilities, and has a tedious, inconsistent UI. Reviewers also report confusing updates and misaligned release notes. Overall, it functions for simple monitoring but is not a reliable, feature-complete tool for kiln management.

### Pros

- Real-time monitoring of kiln status and temperatures.
- Useful to know what the kiln is currently doing when away from the room.
- Provides live updates and basic notifications about kiln activity.
- Generally tidy and straightforward for basic monitoring.

### Cons

- Bugs and instability (crashes, stalls, blank screens, crashes on login or when adding kilns).
- No automatic logging or history of firings; manual data entry required and limited analytics.
- Cannot start/stop the kiln or edit/create firing schedules from the app.
- Poor UI/UX with layout and navigation issues; graphs show inaccurate data/time zones and inconsistent indicators.
- Updates can introduce new problems without clear release notes; inconsistent behavior across devices.
