I got it for the camera
Ok this does everything a cat/dog feeder is supposed to do. And this one is no exception. HOWEVER what intrigued me was the camera. I am still not quite sure why someone would need a camera to watch their pet eat food but it does make some interesting pics. So if you want the pet feeder that literally has EVERYTHING this is the feeder for you. 5 STARS!

works fine, but not great
Feeds fine, easy to clean, schedule is customizable and works, I LOVE that it comes with a lock strap for my feisty kitty.The camera is OK, but I’d rather have a use a different camera. This one isn’t good quality and isn’t super easy to use.I have two cats, so I only wanted this one because of the camera. Since it’s not a great feature, I’m going to go back to my double feeder & get a different indoor security camera for my kitties.

Product review
I was impressed with the size right out of the box it holds about 6lbs of dry cat food or dog food. Setting it up was easy, though I couldn’t figure out how to attach the safety lock strap. It’s just a Velcro strap, so no big deal.To download the app, you can scan the QR code or search for “Smart Life” on the App Store (look for the house icon).The camera quality is as expected (480p) with a frame rate of around 10 FPS, which makes it a bit laggy. However, it works well enough to check if there’s food in the bowl while you’re away.On the Smart Life app, you can set and adjust feeding times. I have mine set for 4 AM, 12 PM, and 7 PM, and the food drops on time. At first, the app seemed confusing, but you can edit feeding times easily after setting them. You can even make it play a sound that you recorded (typically your voice) anytime food drops, I have mine say “Food, want food” anytime the food drops.Also extremely easy to clean, where the food drops is an aluminum bowl that can be removed. Super easy to put wet food & dry food then clean it.Overall, I’m very satisfied. I previously had another feeder, and this one is far superior in design, capacity, and reliability. There are no jamming issues, and the food-drop mechanism is bigger so it doesn’t jam when food is caught inside. Easy to clean.Cons: the feeder uses a revolver-style mechanism, so you’ll need to dispense about three servings before food starts falling out after you refill it. I wish it had a simple drop-through system, but it hasn’t jammed like my old one because this product has a bigger mechanism to drop the food.Cons: I had to remove one star due to the devices wifi issues. The WiFi chip isn’t very strong, sometimes when trying to view the camera or use the speaker option to talk to the animals it says “Operation Failed” this happens about 60% of the time. I also clicked the feed button within the app but right afterwards the device had wifi interruption and continued to drop food in perpetuity. This is a major flaw as the design should only drop a max of 6 servings, if I wasn’t there to reset the device It quite literally would have kept dumping and dumping food until either it was empty or perhaps damaged. I have very good 1.2GBPS 2.4Ghz/5ghz WiFi so I know it’s the product having issues. If the WiFi chip was stronger it would be 5/5, I wouldn’t trust it to feed the animals whilst you’re on vacation for example. Thus why I rated it 4 stars. However I still recommend this.

Perfect idea for a night away
Everyone know how self sufficient cats are. This is the perfect solution if you want or need to go away without your furbabies for a day or two. You can set up times for feeding and amount. You can even check in on our furbaby using the camera. Quiet operation. A little quirky setting up but once yu get it it’s done. Set and forget. Love it

Great fully featured cat feeder
This unit replaces another cat feeder that I’d used for quite some time. What this feeder offers that many others do not is: a depth of customization of feeding schedules (you can set up as many feedings in a day as needed at nearly any portion size) and remote control via WiFi. The camera is a nice touch too. It’s reassuring to know that I can control portion frequency and size from anywhere, keep an eye on my kitty, and dole our food on demand from anywhere. My cat was afraid of it for a few days, but quickly adjusted. One recommendation for improvement: a battery back-up. If the power fails, so does this feeder. But overall, a great upgrade.

Feeder works well, camera is shockingly bad
Overall, this feeder works well. I own a couple other camera feeders that were priced similarly to this one, and I do have to say, this one is the worst. The camera is usually. Seriously, don’t bother even loading the video as it tends to crash the app and the quality is so poor that you can’t really see anything. If they had left off the camera and priced this about $25 cheaper, I’d say it’s a decent buy. But most people who order a feeder with a camera do actually want the camera to function properly.The feeder works well and dispenses food reliably. Haven’t had any issues with clogging. Set up was very easy and quick. The removable stainless steel dish is a nice feature – very easy to clean. The Velcro strap is a ridiculous feature, and it’s not surprising that they don’t show it in the pictures. Never seen a feeder that didn’t have a lid with some type of latching mechanism. This one just has a single piece of Velcro. I’d have to think that any cat could remove it easily if they tried – luckily mine aren’t the type to do that.There are tons of better feeders on Amazon. I’d pass on this one if I were you.

Not what I expected
I already have an automatic feeder that works great and it doesn’t need wifi either. The only reason I got this one is to use the camera function. First off, setting up the app and the wi-fi was not as smooth as I would have expected. And second, the camera quality is terrible and sometimes it freezes. And then the app sometimes crashed and it needs to be restarted. How could I go away and rely on this device for feeding? I really can’t. As a design, this is fine and the bowl is big enough.
