Direct answer

Unknown

Without Whisker+, both Litter-Robot 5 Pro cameras can be viewed live for up to five minutes per day and front-camera events are retained for two days. Whisker+ adds unlimited live viewing and 30-day storage. The official guide conflicts on whether per-visit globe recordings are currently available, so that feature remains Unknown. You can disable the cameras in Whisker app > View Camera > Controls.

Low-risk troubleshooting path

Verify one condition at a time

Keep the full fault context and retest after each official step. Never transfer a bare error code across models.

  1. Capture the complete message

    Record the code, complete message, device state and recent operation or maintenance.

  2. Confirm the exact model

    Use only official support steps for this exact model.

  3. Run one low-risk check

    Check power, placement, visible obstruction, sensors or contacts, then retest.

  4. Escalate repeated or abnormal faults

    Stop use for repeated alerts, odor, heat, damage or possible liquid ingress.

01

Choose the access tier

Use the free tier when limited live viewing and short front-event retention meet your needs. Whisker+ is the documented route to unlimited live viewing and 30-day storage. Do not rely on per-visit globe recordings yet: the same official guide describes the benefit and repeatedly labels it as coming soon. Dynamic membership pricing is intentionally not frozen here.

02

Turn cameras off

The cameras are enabled by default. In the Whisker app, open View Camera, then Controls, and disable the cameras. The captured support guide says this stops live video and event recording.

03

Stop condition

If the menu or behavior differs, stop before resetting the device and use the current official support path for the exact U.S. model. Do not infer a region account or firmware workflow from this U.S.-scoped record.

FAQ

Litter-Robot 5 Pro frequently asked questions

Each answer stays within the facts and sources shown on this page.

01Can I use the cameras without Whisker+?

Yes, with limits: both cameras can be viewed live for up to five minutes per day and front-camera events are retained for two days. The official guide conflicts on whether per-visit globe recordings are currently available, so treat that feature as Unknown rather than assuming Whisker+ enables it now.

02Can I turn off the Litter-Robot 5 Pro cameras?

Yes. The cameras are enabled by default; use Whisker app > View Camera > Controls to disable them. Disabling stops live video and event recording.
