This gadget is a little like the recently revealed iGrill that launched at the start of the Consumer Electronics Show 2014, except that this device is only for indoor use. The iDevice Kitchen Thermometer allows you to digitally monitor the heat of anything you are making. One of the best things about this gourmet gadget is that it can remember the [temperature and time of your cooking](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookclock). That way, if you find the perfect way to make something, it will be saved for the next time you are in the kitchen. Also included is iLP technology that uses sonic wave checks to measure the [propane levels in your grill tank](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/intelligent-electric-grill). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Digital Heat-monitoring Devices:** There is an opportunity to expand the use of this technology in outdoor cooking. - **Memory-recording Cooking Tools:** The ability to remember the perfect cooking settings can be applied to other kitchen gadgets such as air fryers or ovens. - **Sonic Wave Monitoring:** There is potential to develop other products for propane monitoring in tanks or other machinery. ### Where This Applies - **Consumer Electronics:** There is an opportunity for established companies to create more sophisticated devices for monitoring cooking and kitchen functions. - **Home Appliance:** Kitchen appliance manufacturers can incorporate digital heat-monitoring features into their products. - **Outdoor Cooking Equipment:** Outdoor grill and cooking equipment companies can invest in sonic wave technology to enhance their products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Tech-Forward Precision Cooking Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/precision-cooking-tools.md) - [Connected Outdoor Cooking Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grilleye-max.md) - [All-Weather Cooking Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chefstemp-protemp-plus.md) - [Interactive Meat Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/midea-head-cook-cooking-probe.md) - [Temperature-Tracking Smart Ovens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuwave-todd-english-iq360.md) - [Connected Cooking Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tempspike.md) - [Thermal-AI Cooking Assistants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cue-chef-cube-01.md) - [Magnetic Power-Free Food Thermometers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/food-temperature-detector.md) - [App-Paired Cooktop Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tramontina-guru.md)
