Cat feeders · Choose by your needs
If your network must support 2.4 GHz, documented options include both 2.4-only and dual-band feeders. PetSafe Smart Feed documents twelve app-managed meals on 2.4 GHz, while HA10P supports ten meals and both Wi-Fi bands.

| Model | Model | Band / schedule | Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| PetSafe Smart Feed PFD00-16828, second generation | PetSafe Smart Feed | 2.4 GHz; twelve app meals daily | Backup cells are emergency schedule support |
| WOpet Heritage Air HA10P single-bowl feeder HA10P single bowl | WOpet Heritage Air HA10P | 2.4 and 5 GHz; ten meals daily | Single bowl; app functions unavailable on backup |
Choose it when: Its exact second-generation page explicitly lists 2.4 GHz and twelve daily app schedules, giving a documented option if that band is mandatory.
The limit: It is an adapter-powered dry-food feeder in normal use; do not assume its app or network remains available on backup cells.
Choose it when: The exact HA10P manual confirms dual-band connection and ten app-managed daily appointments, so it also works with a 2.4 GHz network while supporting 5 GHz.
The limit: The current HA10P is the single-bowl variant. The exact manual limits regular kibble to 2–12 mm and says backup cells are not app power.
These feeders explicitly support 2.4 GHz; some support only this band and others also document 5 GHz. A local-control feeder may be a better fit if you do not want Wi-Fi setup at all. The band is Wi-Fi frequency, not cellular 5G, and a correct band alone does not guarantee that a router, password or app will pair.
No. Check the exact model's second band separately; some models are 2.4-only, while others document both. The two band requirements are distinct.
