Feeder Scheduler Guide
Keep your bird feeders clean and well-stocked with weather-aware scheduling. Track maintenance, prevent disease, and attract more birds to your yard.
1. Weather-Aware Scheduling
Real-time weather data adjusts your maintenance schedule automatically.
The scheduler fetches current weather conditions for your location and adjusts cleaning and refilling schedules accordingly. Hot, humid weather means more frequent cleaning to prevent mold. Cold weather means birds need more food.
Weather Factors Considered
- Temperature
- Humidity
- Season
- Alerts
Location Selection
Use automatic geolocation or search for any city worldwide. The scheduler uses the appropriate units (°C/°F) based on your selected country.
2. Manage Your Inventory
Add all your feeders and track each one individually.
Add each of your bird feeders to the inventory. Give them custom nicknames like "Front Yard Tube Feeder" or "Deck Hummingbird Feeder" to easily identify them. Each feeder type has its own cleaning and refilling schedule.

- Hopper Feeder
- Platform Feeder
- Suet Feeder
- Hummingbird Feeder
- Nyjer/Thistle
- Window Feeder

Health Score
Your overall feeder health score is calculated based on how well-maintained all your feeders are. Overdue feeders lower your score, prompting you to take action.
3. Track Maintenance
Log cleaning and refilling to keep schedules accurate.
When you clean or refill a feeder, mark it as done. The scheduler will calculate the next maintenance date based on the feeder type, current weather, and season. Overdue tasks are highlighted in red so you never miss critical maintenance.
