What the fuck do they even do? I thought they were supposed to scan the ingredients in your fridge, then tell you what's about to expire and what recipes you can make. But apparently they can't even do that, so what purpose do they serve that I can't already accomplish by bringing my phone into the kitchen?

Can they at least monitor the temperature across different areas of the fridge, or connect to my power meter like my thermostat can and optimize power usage to be lower when electricity is more expensive? Or are they literally just an Android tablet glued to a fridge?
