2026-05-16	er*****	I came home to find my feeder off its mount, in the patio 10 ft from the porch. The mount was still on the wall, but the feeder was torn down, the camera completely unplugged, the feed all over the ground. I go to the app to see if it was a squirrel that got on the feeder to only find nothing except what was recorded around 2 hours before this would have happened. There’s nothing. I can’t know if it was a squirrel or someone being rude and destroying something. Kind of useless if it doesn’t record, and no, my storage is not full. I have the VIP too, so don’t bother paying for that.

2026-04-18	Go*****	Don’t let the language scare you away. It’s compatible with English. It took about a day+ to see any birds but now they know it’s there and are eating. The video quality is really good and you can hear the birds too. The only thing I don’t get is alerts that are audible on my phone. But, I do get notifications that are visible. Happy with the feeder.
