What would normally happen is I’d start seeing things freeze so I’d adjust it hotter until one time some things went mouldy sooner than I’d expect so I put the sensor in the fridge to get a better idea what is going on. Seeing the data, the fridge seems to once every couple months just move to a colder temp and stay there until I adjust it back again which is why I think it’s just the button getting bumped.
Being able to see the fridge temp to a tenth of a degree and getting alerted when it’s wrong has been much more useful than I expected. The safe fridge temp is a fairly narrow band that’s basically impossible to hit without a proper temp sensor.

Sounds like, in your case, this narrow temperature band is impossible to hit without a proper refrigerator.
