Review summary

Overall, reviews for Petcube's Android app are negative, centered on unreliable connectivity, pervasive subscription prompts, and limited features for video and multi-device use. A minority report good live streaming and remote monitoring when the connection works, and some note responsive support when issues are resolved. The dominant sentiment is frustration with reliability and business practices.
Pros
  • Strong live video streaming when the connection is stable.
  • Useful for remote pet monitoring while away.
  • App generally performs its intended function when it can connect.
Cons
  • Frequent connectivity issues and unreliable streaming, with occasional login/outages.
  • Aggressive upsell and repeated prompts to upgrade to premium; intrusive ads.
  • Limited multi-device and multi-camera support; cannot use multiple phones or add a second camera without paying.
  • Video feature limitations: no zoom; short clip lengths; not 24/7 recording and occasional orientation issues (e.g., upside-down video).
  • Privacy/security concerns and billing issues: reports of hacks and unauthorized charges.

would you like 70% of your app to be an ad for a seperate app that you can't clear without purchasing their vet messaging subscription service literally just 5 screens in this app total and every single one the majority of your screen is an ad for potentially saving 3000 dollars by texting a "vet" your concerns rather than taking your pet in for proper care, I invested in this brand cause i wanted to keep up with my pets while im away but now ironically i feel using this company promotes neglect

I have reached out for support 2 times in regards to the same issue with the app. If I have my camera on past 8pm it will alert me but not show the recorded video until 12am. I don't understand why it's continuely doing this. I pay for the highest available plan. I'm about to cancel and purchase different cameras. I've had petcubes for 8 years now and they seemed to have just gone down hill.

I've had these cameras for 5 years and they have always worked great. lately I have to restart the app every time I log in to use them. came here to check for an update, and figure out how to contact support. maybe un/re install? overall good product

absolutely sh**, laser has stopped responding, takes ages to get into the app and barely connects anyway. constantly throwing errors or saying can't connect, and yes I've restarted the camera

Camera won't open without closing me app a lot of the time. Sometimes I have to uninstall the app and reinstall it.

this worked for me once upon a time. not anymore. completely fails to connect to my pet cube, at a time when I really needed it to work. whole thing is probably going into E-Waste in the near future
