FAQ
Q: What support is available if customers encounter product issues after launch?
A: Technical support is provided during product introduction, including troubleshooting guidance, firmware updates, and production improvement feedback.
Q: If the Tuya or Smart Life cloud service experiences an outage, can the feeder still dispense scheduled meals?
A: Yes, feeding schedules are stored locally on the device MCU, so scheduled dispensing continues uninterrupted even if cloud connectivity to Tuya or Smart Life is temporarily down.
Q: What is the average response time for firmware update rollout if a security vulnerability is discovered post-launch?
A: Our engineering team commits to releasing a patched firmware update within 5 business days of a confirmed vulnerability report, pushed automatically via OTA update to all connected units.
Q: Can you provide the specific CE, FCC, and UL certificate registration numbers for customs verification before the deposit?
A: Yes, each certificate carries a unique registration number issued by TÜV SÜD and Intertek, provided as scanned originals with the pro forma invoice for direct online verification.
Q: How does the clog detection system work?
A: An infrared sensor at the dispensing chute detects blocked flow within 3 seconds and triggers a push notification to the app while simultaneously activating the reverse-rotation clearing motor.
