| Power backup | Battery backup keeps the schedule running through a mains outage, which in India is not a rare event | not published |

| Wi-Fi | 2.4 GHz, app scheduling and manual dispense | not published |
| Wrong breeds | not published | Should not be used on single-coated or non-shedding breeds -- Poodles, Bichons, Shih Tzus and similar. There is no undercoat to remove and it simply cuts the coat |
