1. Easily connect your Whalen Electric Fireplace to your smart phone or Tablet via Bluetooth.
2. Control all aspects of your fireplace from your smart phone or tablet.
1. THANK YOU!!This works great! If you have an issue with it asking to check your Bluetooth you need to turn on your location and make sure you are not using a VPN app to change your location it happened to me and I realized I had the cyber ghost VPN on when I turned it off the fireplace paired with my phone again.Endlessly tells me to check that bluetooth is on.
2. Ideas, please?Make sure "location" is on on your phone if having probs w bluetooth connectivity!! I saw this tip below and ¡voila! it fixed my problem! I couldn't get the temperature to adjust without going through the app!It was sad to see that the app wasn't working after I got the newest Android version but after the last update everything seems fixed.
3. I LOVE my fireplace!! However, I sometimes have a hard time getting the app/fireplace to connect, even afyer I un-install the app & then re-add it; after I make sure Bluetooth is on & the fireplace has been added as a paired device; after I make sure "location" and wi-fi are both on, etc.
4. Now phone will no longer connect to fireplace **Update** as promised, whalen updated the app to work with the new Android and all is well again.
5. I keep getting, "check Bluetooth" and I do in my phone AND on fireplace.
6. There is nothing I can do except turn the fireplace on and off using the control panel on actual fireplace.Bought this unit about a week ago, assembled and put in place last weekend.
7. This past Friday trying to use same phone, got message saying the app was built for an older version of Android, check for update - none.
8. I can go back to staying on the couch and flipping on the heater using my phone.App worked great, until it didn't.
9. Everything worked as it should until phone updated to new version of Android this app no longer supports.
10. Tested using control panel and remote, then downloaded bluetooth app onto S10.
11. No connection to fireplace, ensure bluetooth is on.
