Why Is My Device Being Disabled?

A disabled device means that the device is prevented from sending data to the server. In the MyFridgeOnline portal, a disabled device is shown on the Devices page on the checkbox in the Enabled column This typically happens when:

  • Your account has no active subscription, or
  • The account has more devices than the quota allows, for the device type.

  2. Click Account in the side navigation.
  3. Under Account Information or Subscriptions, check for:
    • An active subscription plan.
