I have a several thousand dollar yearly calibrated one at work, and these "match" the same readings. Much closer match vs my thermopro models. thermopro's drift a lot as the battery level changes.
They make a lot of versions, just make sure it has the "Temperature: ±0.54℉/ Humidity: ±3% RH" sensor in it. Some of the older ones will have a different set of ranges.
If you get the ones with display, on sale, they are like $14 for a pair. And since it has a display, you dont even have to use the app.

What's "reliable" and what's "accurate"?
I've had excellent results with the $3-$9 ones on Amazon (example).
(There are more for comparison further down the page. They're all pretty similar.)
I forget the exact tolerances these are rated for, but I've had a half dozen, and all have been good within a degree F and ~2% RH. Close enough for jazz & reptiles...
