## Description

KilnLink is a productivity Chrome extension that keeps you connected to your kilns on the go. It lets you monitor multiple Skutt KilnMaster controllers remotely via Wi-Fi, giving you real-time firing status from anywhere.

Version 2.0.2 focuses on backend API improvements and reliability. It also includes a password reset fix. Note: Requires a Skutt KilnMaster-Touchscreen (KMT or GMT) controller for each kiln, a Wi‑Fi connection for each kiln, and a mobile data connection to stay informed.

## Review summary

KilnLink is praised for remote kiln monitoring and basic data access, but suffers from repeated connectivity issues, login problems, and a poor, buggy UI. Review patterns show limited features and reliability, with updates sometimes making things worse. Users want stable connections, better authentication, richer data over time, and alerts.

### Pros

- Remote monitoring of kiln status (temperature and firing stages) from a mobile device.
- Access to basic kiln data (temperature, firing time, speed, cost) even in the free version.
- Easy setup and initial connection for some users.
- Recent app updates provide more detailed status information.

### Cons

- Unreliable connectivity: the app frequently loses connection to the kiln and cannot always reconnect.
- Login/authentication problems: difficulty logging in, password resets failing, or being stuck at kiln naming.
- Poor UI/UX: dead links, endless loops, ambiguous icons, and an overall hard-to-use interface.
- Limited functionality: lacks overtime/graph data, ramp data, alerts, and remote controls; mostly basic readouts.
- Updates can render the app nonfunctional or flaky for some users.
