The battery drains too fast
Sounds like: “I have to charge it every day”
Usually the camera is waking up and recording more than it needs to. The fix is telling it where it lives.
Try this
- Open the Coop app, tap the camera's settings, then Location Profile.
- Pick the spot that matches: Roost (inside the coop), Run (the outdoor run) or Brooder (watching chicks).
- Avoid “Other” for a camera inside the coop. The Roost setting is built for nighttime and saves battery.
- Give it a day or two, then check the battery again.
Still stuck?
Still draining? Send us:
- A screenshot of the camera's settings
- A Diagnostic Report: in the Coop app, open the camera's settings → three-dot menu → Send Diagnostic Report
For your privacy, we can't look into your camera until you send the Diagnostic Report.
Just message us with those and a real person on the Coop team will take it from there. Thank you for being part of our flock! 🐔
