Best Smart Kitchen Accessories for Your Apple Devices in 2020

An Air Fryer That You Can Control from Your iPhone

Air frying gives you frying tastiness without the fat of traditional oil frying. If this sounds up your cooking alley, then you’ll love the T-Fal Actifry Fryer, which is designed to connect to an app via Bluetooth. You can upload instructions for ingredients directly, which means no more worrying about ruining dishes. The fryer doesn’t need to preheat, and will stir food on its own thanks to the built-in paddle. It’s a great option for air frying beginners and experts too.

A Stand for Your Kitchen Counter

Your iOS device has a lot of usability in the kitchen, whether you are looking up recipes, watching how-to videos for a new dish, asking Siri about how long something can last in the fridge, or catching up on your favorite shows while you’re cooking.

But for all of this to work, you need a reliable stand that will hold your device in place without issue and help prevent casual accidents. Our favorite is this excellent Samdi stand for your iPad that keeps it safe and sturdy while also looking like a beautiful accessory to display on your kitchen counter. However, there are a lot of stands out there, including magnetic arms, wall mounts, and much more for a variety of situations.

A Sous Vide Cooker with App Compatibility

Sous vide has become quite popular for at-home chefs that like to experiment and is particularly well-known as a method to cook meat through perfectly without charring. This particular Breville Joule model is excellent for home kitchens as it uses an app to display how your food is coming along with controls for remote cooking while you are busy with other matters. The app is also compatible with Alexa and has a neat meat guide that shows you exactly how your meat should look when it’s done, which is great when trying out new dishes.

An iOS Compatible Kitchen Scale

A kitchen scale is nice, but a scale that connects to your iPhone is even better. This Escali Smart Scale uses Bluetooth to connect to your phone and will measure up to 11 pounds of food precisely. Using the app, you can identify the right ingredient from 8,000 different foods for the most informative measurements possible outside of a chemistry lab. It has a smooth glass surface for easy cleaning, too.

A Smart Speaker to Rock out with Cooking Tunes

Once your kitchen has a smart speaker, you’ll never go back. But the question is which smart speaker to get. If you want to stick with the Apple world, then it’s a good idea to wait for the HomePod mini that Apple is planning to release. However, you don’t have to use a HomePod: An Amazon Echo, for example, can also easily connect to your iPhone, Apple Music, and more to play whatever music you want. The second-generation Echo also has an excellent sound that can easily fill your whole kitchen, making it an excellent recommendation.

A Handy Measurement Converter

It’s not exactly an accessory, but this app acts just like one with a wonderful interface to help convert ingredient measurements with two dials that can be controlled via touch or by jostling your phone if you don’t want to touch the screen. It’s amazingly useful even for common baking projects – and completely free.

A Smart Tea Maker with App Control

Longing for the perfect cup of tea that always seems out of reach? This tea making appliance is made for those who want to accomplish this task easily. It precisely controls the brew temperature and brew time via the app, and customizes the process based on the type of tea you are using. If tea making is both art and a pleasure for you, the Qi Aerista IoTea Brewer an incredible accessory for your kitchen.

An Instant Pot That Works with Your iPhone

The Instant Pot already offers many brilliant features for the average kitchen, but the Smart Wi-fi version adds extra compatibility for your iPhone. With this model, you can pick a recipe right from your app and load it in without worrying about setting cooking times yourself. The app will also happily update you on different stages for multi-step meals so you aren’t caught unawares. We didn’t think they could make the Instant Pot better, but they did.
