[BlindTlk] Question about Instant Pot and iPhone

[Ericka]

I don’t know a whole lot to say here as my husband has the newest iPhone SE and it works just fine with his Insta pot. One thing we did learn is that you can only have it meaning the app on one phone. We tried to have it set up so that I could use it as well as my husband but it wouldn’t recognize my phone but it would recognize his. So if you still have your old phone perhaps taking the app off that one and installing it on your new phone might do the trick.
