    How to Use Your Smart Air Fryer App

    Get recipes, start cooks remotely, and watch the timer from your phone with Cosori, Ninja, or Instant Vortex apps.

    1

    Find your brand's app

    ~15s
    Check the air fryer manual or search your brand name in the App Store or Play Store — Cosori has "VeSync," Ninja has "Ninja Kitchen," Instant has "Instant Brands Connect." Download the official one.
    2

    Create an account

    ~15s
    Open the app and sign up with your email. Creating an account syncs your favorite recipes across your phone and tablet.
    3

    Browse recipes by category

    ~15s
    Tap "Recipes" and filter by category (chicken, vegetables, frozen foods, desserts). Each recipe includes the exact temperature, time, and whether to shake or flip partway through.
    4

    Pair a smart model

    ~15s
    If your air fryer has Wi-Fi, tap "Add Device" in the app. Connect your phone to your home Wi-Fi on the 2.4 GHz network (most smart appliances do not work on 5 GHz).
    5

    Start and monitor from the app

    ~15s
    With a paired fryer, pick a recipe and tap "Start." The app sends the time and temp to the air fryer. A push notification alerts you when your food is done.

    Most newer air fryers — especially Cosori, Ninja, and Instant Vortex — come with a free app that has hundreds of air fryer recipes with exact times and temperatures. Smart Wi-Fi models can also be started and stopped from your phone.

    Even without Wi-Fi, the recipe library alone helps you figure out how long to cook anything from frozen fries to chicken thighs.
