Frequently asked questions

Choosing a feeder

Which smart feeder is right for my pet?

Start with your pet's feeding routine, the suitable kibble size and the capacity you need. Choose Wi-Fi for app control, Wi-Fi + Camera for supported video features, or Timer for on-device scheduling. Check the individual product's specifications before choosing.

Can I control my feeder from my phone?

Wi-Fi models offer app control using the app listed in the product instructions, such as Tuya Smart or Smart Life. Timer-only models are programmed on the device. Camera and remote features depend on the model.

Setup & app

How do I connect a Wi-Fi feeder?

Follow your model's pairing instructions and use the app specified in its manual. Check the supported Wi-Fi band, keep the feeder close to the router during setup and enter your network password carefully. Many models require a 2.4 GHz network.

How does the feeder camera work?

Camera-equipped feeders let you check on your pet through the supported app. Video resolution, night vision and two-way audio vary by model. Check the product page for the features included with your feeder.

How do I schedule meals and choose portions?

On app-controlled models, open the feeding schedule in the supported app. On timer models, use the device controls. Set times and portions according to the manual, then test a portion and weigh it to check how much food is dispensed.

What food can I use in an automatic feeder?

Use only the food type and kibble size specified for your model. Do not add wet food or treats unless the instructions explicitly allow them. Keep the food compartment dry and check the dispensing outlet regularly.

Will my feeder work without Wi-Fi or mains power?

Offline schedules and backup power differ between models. Check the manual before relying on either feature. App access and live video require a connection, and backup batteries may support feeding without powering every feature.

Cleaning & care

How should I clean my feeder or fountain?

Unplug the device first and follow the model's cleaning instructions. Wash only parts identified as washable and let them dry before reassembly. Keep electrical parts out of water. Use a dishwasher only if the manual explicitly permits it.

When should I replace a fountain filter?

Follow the replacement interval in your model's instructions. Water quality, use and the number of pets can affect how quickly a filter needs replacing. Choose a replacement that matches your fountain model.
