What is WiFi Enabled?
Indicates if the device can connect to your home's wireless internet network for remote control and monitoring.
Definition
A 'WiFi Enabled' device can connect to your 2.4 GHz home wireless network, allowing it to communicate with a companion mobile app. This connectivity enables features like remote monitoring of your pet's activity, scheduling tasks (e.g., feeding times, cleaning cycles), receiving alerts (e.g., waste drawer full, low food), and sometimes even firmware updates. A device that is not WiFi enabled operates manually or with limited local controls only.
Why It Matters
Determines the 'smart' functionality of the device. WiFi connectivity unlocks remote management and data insights, offering greater convenience and peace of mind for pet owners who want to stay connected to their pet's care from anywhere.
What to Look For
True (or 'yes') if you desire smart features, remote control, and real-time alerts. False (or 'no') if you prefer a simpler, non-connected device.
