Put simply, Tender tracks degree-days. A degree-day is a unit that combines time and temperature into a single measure of aging progress. Tender also takes humidity into account when doing the math for you.
Not quite. Specialist aging setups run near-freezing temperatures for weeks or months to develop an intense, almost funky flavor — much like blue cheese — that divides opinion. Tender is for traditional, shorter aging — the kind that makes meat genuinely more tender and develops richer flavor without a specialist setup and exotic mold.
Outdoor timers use live weather data to calculate degree-days automatically based on the actual temperature at your pin location. Fridge timers use a fixed temperature you enter — suitable for controlled environments like a refrigerator or aging cabinet.
Tender looks at the current temperature and weather at your location and projects forward, assuming conditions stay roughly the same until the degree-day target is reached. The estimate is kept up to date as live weather data comes in, so it may shift as the weather changes.
Open the app, tap the "+" button, give your timer a name, choose the animal type (mammal or bird), select outdoor or fridge, and confirm. For outdoor timers, you can pin the exact location on the map.
You can have up to 5 active outdoor timers and up to 15 active fridge timers running simultaneously per account.
Yes — go to Settings within the app to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit. The change applies to all timers immediately.
