FAQs

What size kibble is compatible with this feeder?

The feeder is designed for standard dry pet food kibble. While specific sizes vary by brand, extremely large or small kibble may not dispense consistently. It is recommended to use kibble sizes that fit comfortably through the dispensing mechanism.

How do I record a voice message?

You can record a 10-second personal message through the mobile application. This message will play automatically each time food is dispensed, helping to call your pets for their meal.

Can this feeder be used for both cats and dogs?

Yes, this feeder is suitable for both cats and small to medium-sized dogs, provided they eat dry food and the kibble size is compatible.

What happens if the power goes out?

The feeder has a dual power system. It can run on the included DC adapter or be backed up by 4 AA batteries (not included). If the power fails, the battery backup will ensure that scheduled feedings continue.

How often do I need to refill the food tank?

The 6L (approximately 25 cups) tank can hold enough food for several weeks, depending on your pets' daily intake. Regular checks are recommended, especially for multi-pet households.

Is the food tank secure?

The lid is designed to securely close, preventing pets from accessing the food storage. However, for persistent pets, additional measures might be considered.

Troubleshooting

Feeder not dispensing food

Check for food clogs in the dispensing mechanism and outlet. Ensure the food tank is properly seated. Verify the feeding schedule is correctly set in the app.

App cannot connect to the feeder

Ensure your WiFi is functioning correctly and the feeder is within range. Restart both the feeder and your router. Verify you are using the correct WiFi password and that the feeder is connected to a supported band (2.4GHz or 5GHz).

Camera feed is blurry or not loading

Clean the camera lens. Check your WiFi signal strength at the feeder's location. Close and reopen the app, or try reconnecting the feeder to WiFi.

Feeder is not powering on

Check that the DC adapter is securely plugged into the feeder and a working power outlet. If using batteries, ensure they are correctly inserted and have power.
