I have a stove with optional app support, but I tolerate it because the app doesn't add anything. The local controls can do everything. If you use the app, you have to hit a button on the local controls anyway to confirm you are physically there anyway before it listens to the app for most things.

The only thing that was somewhat convenient was phone notification when timed cooking was done, because the stoves own chime wasn't that loud. However ultimately I stopped bothering and just set a phone timer when I set cook timer, because keeping the oven on the network was an active maintenance activity that wasn't worth it.
