Battery-powered indoor monitor that reads both humidity and temperature, updating every 10 seconds. It uses an NTC sensor to track conditions in real time without needing Wi-Fi or any wireless connection.
A built-in comfort indicator uses three icons (Dry, Comfort, Wet) so you can tell at a glance whether your room's humidity is in a healthy range. No app or manual interpretation required.
Useful anywhere you need to track moisture levels: nurseries, greenhouses, guitar rooms, or near a humidor. As a non-toxic hygrometer, it's a simple option for keeping tabs on the air quality in spaces where that matters most.
Three mounting options (tabletop stand, magnetic back, hanging mount) mean you can stick it on a fridge, set it on a shelf, or hang it on a wall without any extra hardware.
Tracks and displays high/low records for both temperature and humidity, so you can see how conditions have shifted over time rather than just checking a single snapshot.

Pros

Display is easy to read from across a room, with a compact form factor that fits in small spaces like RV kitchens or pet enclosures.
The companion app connects quickly over Bluetooth and charts temperature and humidity data in clear graphs across hours, days, and weeks.
Stores data locally on the device even when not connected to a phone, so you don't lose historical readings.
Mounting is flexible: built-in stand, keyhole screw slots, and a flat back that works with adhesive tape.
Battery life is strong; one person reported nine months without a battery change, and the units run on standard AAA batteries.
Custom high and low range alerts let you set thresholds for both temperature and humidity.

Cons

Bluetooth range is limited; one person lost connection even at close range, and others noted drop-offs depending on placement.
There is no backlight, so readability suffers in dim or poorly lit rooms despite the product photos suggesting a soft glow.
The app's historical data charts can be inconsistent with what the device display shows, making logged trends harder to trust.
A few people found temperature readings off by several degrees compared to other thermostats in the same room.

Measures both temperature and humidity in real time using a Swiss-made sensor, then sends the data to your phone over Bluetooth so you can check conditions without walking over to the device.
If you're monitoring a nursery, wine cellar, greenhouse, or humidor, you can set custom temperature and humidity ranges in the app and get an alert the moment conditions drift outside them.
The device itself has a simple LCD screen that shows current readings plus max/min history, so it still works as a standalone non-toxic hygrometer even without the app.
Bluetooth-only, not Wi-Fi, which means you need to be within range (roughly 160 feet in open space) to sync with the app. Data won't push to your phone when you're away from home.
Stores up to 20 days of graphed data on the app and lets you export up to two years of historical readings as a CSV, which is useful if you need to document conditions over time.
