7. Can the device be voice controlled?
Yes, the app supports third-party voice services, including Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. If
you have one of these devices, you can use voice control.
8. Why are there no saved videos, even after I inserted a memory card or purchased Cloud
storage through the app?
Please adjust the recording settings after you insert the memory card or bought Cloud service.

9. Why did my device misidentify a bird?
The result accuracy depends on the angle and clarity of the bird pictures. To ensure you get a
correct result, please ensure the picture is clear enough, the identifying features (bird head, tail,
wings or pattern on feathers) are not covered by obstacles, the bird occupies the main position
of the picture. If there are two or more bird species in one picture, the identified result will be the
one on the main position. See the image below for optimum photo angle.
