About
What it is.
The Air Smart Feeder is PETLIBRO's automatic feeder for cat owners managing multi-pet households or simply wanting portion control tied to one animal. It uses RFID collar tag recognition so a paired tag must be present before the unit releases food, keeping other cats or pets out of a given bowl. Feeding times are set through app-based scheduling, letting owners program meals in advance rather than dispensing manually.
Beyond the recognition system, it's built around the basics that matter for daily use: consistent meal timing, app connectivity for remote control, and a hopper designed to keep kibble from going stale between feedings. It fits households that want a dependable, set-and-forget routine without managing a complicated setup.
The verdict
PETLIBRO makes an automatic pet feeder. It dispenses meals on schedule. The feeder holds food in a reservoir. A motor rotates a portion wheel below. Pet owners buy it to feed cats and dogs while away. They solve the problem of missed feeding times. Shopping data shows consistent weekly search interest across platforms.

Find your situation?
Made for some — wrong for others.
You need a feeder you can trust to work day after day without surprises.
427 buyer ratings with 4.4/5 average and mid-to-high marks on food dispensing reliability provide solid consensus; PETLIBRO is an established brand with proven track record.
You want an automatic feeder that won't break the bank but actually works reliably.
Mid-range price (~$135) with strong app and portion control ratings; mid-tier build quality and RFID durability are trade-offs, but core features justify the cost versus cheaper alternatives.
You love cutting-edge pet tech and want the latest smart feeder innovation.
WiFi-enabled with strong app functionality signals modern design, but no evidence of being the newest generation or having a clear technological edge over competitors.
You want a feeder that works straight out of the box with minimal fussing.
Mid-tier setup clarity and WiFi configuration requirements suggest non-trivial initial setup; app-dependent operation is less plug-and-play than mechanical alternatives. Consider Smart Feed Automatic Pet Feeder.
You demand the absolute best automatic feeder money can buy, with no compromises.
Strong app and portion control ratings offset by acknowledged weaknesses in RFID collar quality, tray build, and setup clarity—not top-of-class across the board. Consider Feeder-Robot.
You're passionate about pet tech and want a feeder that delights beyond just feeding.
Purely functional positioning with no signals of distinctive design, aesthetic appeal, or passionate user following—capable but utilitarian.
Grounded in our buyer-review, reviewer-video, price and successor signals — a poor fit names a closer pick · as of Aug 14.

Frequently asked
What buyers want to know.
What do owners like most about this feeder?
Buyers rate the app functionality highest at 4.5 out of 5, saying it's easy to use and works well for managing multiple cats. Owners also praise portion control and how quickly cats learn to use the feeder—some cats figured it out within the first hour.
What's the main problem with this feeder?
The RFID collars are the weakest part. Buyers report they're cheap, slide loose, stretch out of shape, fray, and break easily. The RFID tags also dangle and fall off the collars during use, which defeats the purpose of collar-based feeding control.
Does the feeder jam or have dispensing issues?
Food jamming is occasional but does happen, dividing buyer satisfaction. Most owners report flawless operation over weeks of use, though reliability scores at 3.5 out of 5—suggesting some inconsistency.
Is this feeder good for multiple cats?
Yes. Buyers specifically praise it for multi-cat management, and the app lets you control portions per cat. The feeder's main design purpose is managing which cat eats from which tray, though the collar durability issues can get in the way.
How easy is it to set up?
Setup and instructions clarity rate at 3.5 out of 5. One owner said everything was super easy and worked flawlessly from the start, while general scores suggest some people find the process unclear.
