  • My analogy isn’t terrible, it’s spot fucking on. You just use the ice maker & wouldn’t want to lose it so you’ve attached more value to it than the Anova App.

    Does the refrigerator not refrigerate without the ice maker? You didn’t buy an ice maker, you bought a refrigerator.

    No one is pissed about the device not working. People are pissed that Anova is taking away a FEATURE.

    Anova App = Feature included in original purchase price

    Ice Maker = Feature included in original purchase price.

    This isn’t about the value of what’s being taken away. It’s about the principle of taking away something that was already paid for.

    If Anova wants a subscription based model, they’re welcome to it, but…

    Their current customers did not buy into a subscription model & have the absolute right to be pissed off about being forced into one.


  • Would you buy a refrigerator from a manufacturer that wanted to make the ice maker a subscription service out of nowhere?

    I get that the app isn’t a requirement for the device, but neither is an ice maker required for a refrigerator to function as designed.

    They’re both features advertised as part of the original purchase price. Why does one get an expiration date out of the blue?

    The people who are likely to be losing Bluetooth functionality are also the most likely to be from the original kickstarter batch.

    Even if some-many of them have already upgraded to a newer model, that’s still one hell of a statement to make to your original backers.






  • Yep. So full of shit. You’re the one who came into an Apple community talking about how awful apple is.

    What did you expect to happen? I’m honestly curious how you came to the brilliant the conclusion that you would what? Find sympathy here? Solidarity for your plight?

    Good luck out there. Given your take on Apple & Windows, might I suggest Linux? Or is that too shitty for your liking to?



  • So… go somewhere else & bitch about it? Pretty sure most of the folks here ARE apple customers & are not confounded by this “pathetic veil of secrecy”.

    In fact… and I’m goin out on a limb here, I know… I’d wager most people here have actually figured out how use Apple devices. Maybe even for the betterment of their daily lives.

    Now, dry those tears with your Windows licenses & quit your bitchin.
