Common questions
What is in the Connect with Hub bundle?
The SureFlap Connect cat flap plus the Sure Petcare hub, so app control, curfews and notifications work straight away without buying the hub separately. It is the complete smart package.
Is it worth it over the flap-only Connect?
If you do not already own the hub, yes, buying them together is convenient. If you have a compatible hub already, the flap-only Connect is cheaper.
What can the app do?
Remote lock and unlock, scheduled curfews, and notifications when each pet comes or goes, with activity history and Alexa support.
