Wireless meat probes for smoker and oven

Anyone have one that communicates by WiFi to an app or to another device that can monitor three or more items at once? Looking for recommendations from owners.

Weber IGrill does that. Never used one so can't comment if it is accurate, durable, etc...

I've got one and use it all the time. The early models had probe issues and the temps would bounce around all over the place. I've got 2 new probes (cook and ambient temp) and they work fine.
I also use a maverick that works really well. Thermo works is probably the most popular brand.

Meater
I have one and my mom does as well. Pretty cool piece of equipment. That and Sous Vide make cooking way easier

Weber igrill. I have one and it works really well. Early on, the app had some issues, but they are very responsive to critiques of the app, and as of today, the app works great. The latest update added some cool visual features.
But, it has 4 probe inserts, and is dialed in accurately. My instant read and the igrill is within .3 of each other.

whatever you get I would get one with at least dual so you can gauge the real temp at the grill level.

ok, so I think the meater does it the best wirelessly, but these others have 3/4 item monitors.
That makes sense; need wires if you are cooking up more than 1 item at a time. The meater is actually wireless though so I use it on my proteins often

Probably won't help but I got one on Woot for $40 and it has 6 probes. Works over wifi to your phone.
It's called iBBQ 6x by Solis.
Here's the Amazon offering:

Do you find it is accurate?

I don't think this is the one for me. Melting plastic into my pork shoulder is not my thing.

Not a big fan of wireless or Bluetooth probes. Like anything, I’m sure it’s a “you get what you pay for” thing, but the ones I’ve used have not been very accurate, or lose connectivity too much. Let one fail you one time, and you’ll never trust them again. You’ll end up running out there to put a thermapen in it every so often, which totally defeats the purpose of wireless. I’m good with just a thermaworks dot and a thermapen.

Just an FYI, that probe and clip isn't worth it. It will read the temp on the grill surface, not the ambient in the dome. Unless you are searing something, but even then, i use the dome to judge when i put steaks on.

I use it without issue but I am more concerned about keeping a steady temp around 250 or 275 depending on what I am doing and adjusting the airflow accordingly.

I got one of these Smoke units from Thermoworks about 18 months ago. It is rock solid, this is my 4th iteration of different monitors and by far my favorite. The probes are durable and very accurate, think wireless range is 300 feet and can get their app. If you want 4 probes you would have to step up to a new unit called Signal, it is pricey at over $200. Think I paid $69 on sale for the Smoke unit.
