Setting Up WiFi on a Platinum Brunswick

When I download and install the SmokeIt app it ended up using bluetooth to connect to the grill. How do I get it to use my WiFi instead?

try moving more than 30 feet from the grill to get Blue Tooth to disconnect

the app itself at the time of setup said it needed to access bluetooth to function. when I tried turning it off I got nothing. What I'm looking for is how to install the app without enabling bluetooth so it does not default to it. I have WiFi extenders and yet the unit defaults to bluetooth and disconnects when out of BT range instead of using the wifi. That actually is the problem that happens when I do what you suggest

Something to try....After it pairs via BT and you have got the WiFi stuff setup you should be able to go into your BT settings on your device and just forget or disable that particular pairing.
