1. A method, comprising:
detecting insertion of a cartridge in a vaporizer body, the cartridge comprising a heating element configured to deliver heat to a vaporizable material contained in the cartridge, wherein the heat causes vaporization of the vaporizable material;
determining, in response to detecting insertion of the cartridge, a first setpoint temperature for the heating element;
providing, on a display of the vaporizer body, an indication of the first setpoint temperature;
performing a temperature incrementing process, including:
detecting a first removal of the cartridge from the vaporizer body, wherein the temperature incrementing process begins solely based on the first removal of the cartridge from the vaporizer body;
providing, on the display of the vaporizer body and in response to detecting the first removal of the cartridge, an indication of the first removal of the cartridge;
detecting, during a first timeout period and following the first removal of the cartridge, a first reinsertion of the cartridge in the vaporizer body;
incrementing, in response to detecting the first reinsertion of the cartridge during the first timeout period, the first setpoint temperature to a second setpoint temperature in a sequence of setpoint temperatures; and
providing, on the display of the vaporizer body, an indication of the second setpoint temperature; and
activating the heating element to reach the second setpoint temperature for vaporization of the vaporizable material.

16. A vaporizer device, comprising:
at least one data processor; and
at least one memory storing instructions which, when executed by the at least one data processor, cause operations comprising:
detecting insertion of a cartridge in a vaporizer body, the cartridge comprising a heating element configured to deliver heat to a vaporizable material contained in the cartridge, wherein the heat causes vaporization of the vaporizable material;
determining, in response to detecting insertion of the cartridge, a setpoint temperature for the heating element;
providing, on a display of the vaporizer body, an indication of the setpoint temperature;
performing a temperature incrementing process, including:
detecting removal of the cartridge from the vaporizer body, wherein the temperature incrementing process begins solely based on the removal of the cartridge from the vaporizer body;
providing, on the display of the vaporizer body and in response to detecting removal of the cartridge, an indication of the removal of the cartridge;
detecting, during a timeout period and following removal of the cartridge, reinsertion of the cartridge in the vaporizer body;
incrementing, in response to detecting reinsertion of the cartridge during the timeout period, the setpoint temperature to a next setpoint temperature in a sequence of setpoint temperatures; and
providing, on the display of the vaporizer body, an indication of the next setpoint temperature; and
activating the heating element to reach the next setpoint temperature for vaporization of the vaporizable material.
