S.ou have to work overtime again? Or does the visit to the doctor drag on and then you spend a few hours in a traffic jam? To make matters worse, is your beloved pet waiting for the next meal at home with loud yowling? The solution should be a smart automatic feeder – like the one Aldi Nord is offering online with the “Aldi delivers” service from March 11th. But does feeding really work without being on site?

Medion Life Smarter Automatic Feeder: Dimensions
With the dimensions of 24.4×35.6×35 centimeters, the smart automatic feeder is roughly the size of a 10-liter bucket. Inside, there is space for the contents of a 3-kilogram sack with dry feed, which is transported into the feed pan by a screw conveyor during operation. Great: The feed bowl can be removed in no time and can be cleaned thoroughly if necessary.Don’t be afraid of the facility!
The device worked without any problems in the test: supply the automatic feeder with power using the supplied USB plug-in power supply and then switch it on. Then install the “Medion Pet” app (for Android smartphones and iPhones) on the mobile phone and start it. Now all you have to do is create a new account, connect the automatic feeder to the WiFi via the app, hold the displayed QR code in front of the automatic feeder’s camera – done!
Tidy and clear app
And the feeding can begin – if you have already filled the machine. The app is not overloaded and the necessary functions are clearly arranged. You have three options for serving meals: By tapping on “Express Portion”, your four-legged friend immediately receives a portion of dry food. In the test, the Medion automatic feeder spat out exactly 12 grams of dry food per serving. On the other hand, if you tap on “Feed”, you can specify a number of portions in the next step.
For example, if you choose three servings, 12 grams go three times into the bowl. The third option: You set a schedule – for example for automatic feeding in the morning and evening. That worked reliably in the test.
Aldi Medion Life Smart Feeder MD 60228 in the test: Manual feeding by tapping on “Feed” allows the subsequent setting of portions – in the test, a portion of dry food weighed 12 grams.
A schedule can also be created in the app – for example for feeding in the morning and in the evening.
The app can do more
If the feed is running out, the sensors installed in the storage container send information to the user. The automatic feeder also has a built-in camera and loudspeaker. The pet can be observed via the smartphone and, if necessary, it can hear the confidential voice of its owner. In the test, the camera produced photos and videos in a very decent quality – but the recordings are distorted like a fisheye due to the large angle (120 degrees capture).
Great: The built-in camera can take photos and videos on request – the app transmits instructions via mobile phone to the dog or cat via the speakers.
