    Check whether your smartphone supports AR

    • AR availability depends on your device and the version of the My aibo app you are using.

    • An object is placed on or inside the Food Bowl.

    • Your smartphone or tablet is too far from the Food Bowl.

    Make sure the entire Food Bowl is visible, move your device closer to it, and try again.
