Furbo 360° Dog Camera: Home Security Camera with Barking Alerts, Rotating Pet Treat Dispenser with Phone App, Smart Home Indoor Puppy Cam with 2-Way Speaker and Night Vision (No Subscription Required)

Does exactly what I need it to do. It’s a 360 camera and follows my dog throughout the living room when I am gone. I can easily see what’s happening on the app thru my phone. I can also provide my dog treats when I am not there(it’s make a distinct noise that the dog picks up and knows a treat is incoming, so cool). It has talk functionality too where you can speak from your phone, thru the camera, but the voice doesn’t come thru as clear and loud(my only complaint). Lastly, I enjoy the alerts throughout the day, it will alert me when my dog is barking, sleeping, active, laying on couch, etc… and the video records so that you can see them doing exactly what you were alerted of them doing. Well worth it for those having anxiety being away from the pet! Well worth it!

Let’s talk about the Furbo 360 Treat Cam—this thing is a lifesaver for my anxiety when I have to leave my service dog at home. Unfortunately, my work environment isn’t suitable for her to join me, so she spends her days living her best life at home. While she’s crate trained, I prefer giving her the freedom to roam the apartment, and this camera makes it so easy to check in on her.I love that I can toss her treats when I catch her being a good girl and even talk to her throughout the day. It’s reliable, easy to use, and gives me peace of mind knowing she’s okay. A definite must-have for any pet parent who wants to stay connected with their furry best friend!

I love my Furbo and Furbo Mini. I only set them up when we leave for a couple days, so I’m not quite taking advantage of all the app functionalities, but these things offer great peace of mind when I’m away from the kitties. My kids and I love that we can talk to the cats and give them treats even when we’re far away. The app provides a pretty accurate summary of the cats’ activities every time I check in, and I love watching the video highlights.

Set up was easy for this Luddite. Going in for a stem cell transplant for my cancer and I’ll be away from my cats for a good while. Good friends will feed and visit them. But It will be great to see, talk, and give treats to my furry babies while I’m gone. I’m sure it will help my healing to see them.

I've had mine for a few months now, with the Dog Nanny subscription, where you pay about $7 per month if you pay monthly, or with 2 free months if you prepay for a year. That covers up to 4 cameras if you have them. I only have one. I do, however, have an Amazon Astro, among other random gadgets so I can compare some things.Picture quality is decent, but with a cloud subscription, bandwidth usage may be a concern if you have data caps or limited upload speed to worry about. My dog loves getting treats launched at him, but likes to stand directly in front of it and try to catch them out of the air if it's sitting low enough for him to reach. The treat bin holds lots of treats, but doesn't seal well so soft treats WILL dry out if you're not handing them out quickly enough. Also, because it's not sealed well, your dog may be very, very interested in the payload because they can smell it.Automatic tracking works fairly well as long as the dog is not moving too fast. The robot can turn fairly quickly, but doesn't seem to do so after the initial startup movements where it finds its turning limits.Depending on the surface you place it on, it might be somewhat loud while tracking (turning), because apparently the stepper motor drivers use a lot of current or something while it's moving slowly. When it's searching, it's kind of annoying. I can hear from the next room when it has spotted my dog because the shelf it's sitting on isn't heavy-weight material.There have been moments where the AI that controls automatic searching has had some cognitive lapses, resulting in the camera turning toward the wall while following me when I walked by, and then it just stayed there because the nightvision lamps turned on and washed out the image. It looked like it was just staring into white space at that point and didn't try to look back toward the room until I unplugged it and plugged it back in late the next day.Speaking of AI, the AI is still in training. The AI tags your videos for you. They're crowd sourcing AI training and the app prompts you to confirm what's happening if it has a guess, or if it doesn't, it has buttons at the bottom to identify activities like chewing, running, etc. Person detection notification is extremely spammy. Selfie detection notifications are also also spammy because it triggers every time the dog looks in the direction of the camera, and if the camera is a walkway area, it's going to happen a lot.Cloud recording covers the past 24 hours if you have the dog nanny subscription, and you get one week's worth of daily end-of-evening roll-up videos with music, played in fast-forward speed, up to one minute long per day. You can save any of the videos to your mobile device.Using the mobile app on an iPad just emulates the iPhone screen experience, but the screen kindly auto-rotates if you have your iPad in landscape mode.Treat launching distance can vary anywhere from half a foot to maybe 7 feet in the space I've used it? There seems to be no direct way to control the power of the throw, nor can you directly control the number of treats.For Astro owners: This device is not really suitable for use as an Astro accessory in my opinion. Sure, it can draw power from Astro's USB-C port, but it's a poor fit in the cargo hold of the robot unless you completely remove the plastic tub (undocumented Astro feature). It doesn't turn well if it's in the plastic tub because for some strange reason they designed this thing with an oval shape.
