Bluetooth connectivity (Need Help)

Bought a pit boss navigator pellet grill from my friend with no instruction manual. How do I tell if it has Bluetooth/ wi-fi capability?

Thanks in advance

Set your temps manually and use a stand alone temp monitor like inkbird. To alert you when things go stupid.

Look at which navigator you have at the pit boss site. Each one you can download a user manual.

I’d be in your manual but the Navigator is not Wi-Fi capable. You’d have to put a Wi-Fi capable controller in it.
This is best controller that Pit Boss currently has available …

Welcome!

I have the competition series and the controller runs well. I subscribe to what jimsmokes said. The smoker runs well, I never hooked it up to the internet to get "newer/better" afraid it would become a problem child. I have btooth meatsticks that give gate temp as well as meat temp for riding herd on anything going stupid.

I wouldn’t have that feature but I’ve seen where guys delete it and reinstall the app
Hopefully this helps you

Thanks, Yeah, I tried most of the remedies suggested. No luck yet, they need to do a major update to the app. Next, I'm gonna try deleting the app while standing on my right leg, unplugging the grill with my tongue out, reinstall the app while standing on my left leg, chug a beer, plug in the grill, chug another beer, try the app......turn the damn thing off and switch to bourbon!! Have a great day!

Have you called customer support? It could be a bad controller, that's happen to me when my smoker was new years ago, swapped it out and it's been fine ever since.

And stand on your head while whistling Dixie, lol. Have you tried the updated app? It was updated on 3/14, from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1. I haven't because mine still works and I don't want to screw it up.

I'm on 1.2.1. I just installed the app last week. And I don't blame you for not updating!
