Introduction
Turn your backyard into a living nature documentary. Soliom Pro is the official companion app from Soliom Smart Technology Limited for the brand's smart bird feeder cameras and solar-powered monitors — letting you watch live visits from your phone, automatically identify over 10,000 bird species with on-device AI, and replay every motion-triggered clip from anywhere in the world.
What Is the Soliom Pro App?
Soliom Pro is a free mobile app designed specifically for Soliom's bird feeder camera line (including the Soliom BF08 and the latest 4K Slow-Motion Bird Feeder). Unlike the separate Soliom+ app for security cameras, Soliom Pro is built around nature watching: real-time live view, AI bird identification, motion-triggered playback, and a gamified "Bird Fans" discovery experience. Available on iPhone, iPad, Apple Silicon Mac, Apple Vision Pro, and Android, the app turns a single Soliom account into a shared family bird-watching hub.
With a 4.5-star rating on Google Play, 10,000+ downloads, and support for 17 languages, Soliom Pro has become the go-to companion for birders, parents teaching kids about wildlife, and homeowners who want both garden monitoring and peace of mind.
Core Features
Live View & Multi-Device — Stream real-time HD video from one or many Soliom cameras on a single account, with unlimited device binding and sharing with up to 10–20 family members per device for free.
AI Bird Identification — Automatically recognizes over 10,000 bird species from recorded clips, overlaying the bird's name and unlocking the gamified Bird Fans discovery program.
Free 3-Day Cloud Recording — Loop-style cloud storage at no cost, with paid Basic / Standard / Premium plans extending history up to 60 days and unlocking Smart Push and Activity Zones.
PIR Motion Detection — High / Medium / Low sensitivity, configurable cool-down (10 s – 5 min), and recording length options from 5 seconds to 3 minutes.
Sleep & Arm Scheduling — Define up to 8 time windows per day when the camera is armed — perfect for skipping sunrise glare or nighttime quiet.

Soliom Pro is the official free mobile app from Soliom Smart Technology Limited for the brand's smart bird feeder cameras and solar-powered cameras. It provides live view, AI bird species identification for over 10,000 species, motion-triggered cloud and SD playback, PIR motion alerts, two-way audio, and gamified Bird Fans discovery.
Is Soliom Pro different from the Soliom+ app?
Yes — Soliom operates two separate apps. Soliom Pro is designed specifically for bird feeder cameras and AI bird identification, while Soliom+ is intended for security cameras such as PTZ, solar, and 4G models. If you own a Soliom bird feeder camera, use Soliom Pro.
Is Soliom Pro free to use?
Yes. The app is free to download and includes a free 3-day rolling cloud history, live view, PIR motion detection, two-way audio, and scheduling. AI bird identification, longer cloud retention (15/30/60 days), Activity Zones, and Smart Push are part of paid Soliom Pro Awareness plans, with a 1-month free trial for new users.
How do I set up a Soliom bird feeder camera with Soliom Pro?
Download Soliom Pro, create an account, power on your camera, and wait for the pairing voice prompt. Tap 'Add Device', choose Bluetooth pairing or QR-code scanning, enter your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi password, and place the camera within 16 feet (5 m) of the router for the most reliable connection.
Why won't Soliom Pro connect to my Wi-Fi?
Soliom cameras only support 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi — 5 GHz networks are not supported. Make sure your network uses WPA2-PSK or lower, avoid special characters in the password, keep the camera close to the router during setup, and confirm the QR code scans cleanly during Bluetooth pairing.
How does the AI bird identification work?
The AI runs on Soliom's cloud. When a motion clip is uploaded, the AI analyzes the bird in the frame and overlays the species name on or after the clip. Recognition works best with clear lighting — strong backlight or shadows can occasionally prevent a name from being shown. AI identification requires a Soliom Pro Awareness subscription.
Can I share my Soliom camera with my family?
Yes. Each Soliom bird feeder camera can be shared with 10–20 family members per device for free, and one Soliom account can be linked to unlimited devices. Some users note that simultaneous logins are limited — check the support portal for the latest family-sharing guidance.
Does Soliom Pro work on PC or Mac?
Soliom Pro is a mobile-first app, but it runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs (macOS 11.0+) and on Apple Vision Pro. There is no native Windows PC app, though some users install the Android version via an Android emulator at their own risk.
How much cloud storage do I get for free?
Every Soliom Pro user gets a free rolling 3-day cloud history automatically — no subscription required. Paid plans extend retention to 15 days (Basic), 30 days (Standard), or 60 days (Premium) and unlock AI bird identification, Activity Zones, and Smart Push notifications.
How do I contact Soliom Pro support?
Visit the official support portal at support.soliom.net for setup guides, troubleshooting articles, and firmware downloads. You can also reach Soliom via the contact form on soliom.net or through the in-app help center.

This a good app with one complaint. Finding live mode is not very intuitive. My wife and I both have to hunt around for the live view. Seems like default is viewing recordings. Put a button for Live view and I'll give it 5 stars.
Pricing InfoFree to download and use with a free 3-day rolling cloud history. Soliom Pro Awareness subscriptions (Basic / Standard / Premium) extend cloud retention to 15/30/60 days and unlock AI bird identification, Activity Zones, and Smart Push notifications. A 1-month free trial is available for new users.
Hey this app and product allow our family to get great pictures of the birds that visit our feeder everyday! No problems that I have seen.
App Store
Mostly great, the bird fans beta think my white-winged doves are people, though. Would be great if there was an Apple TV app or HomeKit integration so I could let my kitties watch the BirdCam on BirdTV lol!
App Store
We got this for our mother and wanted to be able to share in the fun of looking at birds (at the very least her and my dad)… but only one user can be logged in at a time. Please allow multiple people to watch, it would make the experience much better.
App Store
The feeder itself and camera works well. However trying to clean the unit is difficult because the top part does not come off per the label affixed to it. Later models do have a removable top which would be a welcome improvement.
Google Play
The AI bird identification is magical. I've already logged 27 species visiting my feeder in two weeks — cardinals, chickadees, goldfinches, even a rare warbler. The live view streams smoothly and the 3-day free cloud is generous.
Google Play
Easy multi-device management from a single account. I share the camera with my kids who live in another state and they love watching the birds at grandma's house. Motion alerts are accurate and the flashlight alarm keeps squirrels away.
Google Play
Setup via Bluetooth was quick once I realized I needed 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only. The battery status and Wi-Fi signal indicators in the app are really helpful for placement. Sleep scheduling is a lifesaver for cutting down on false alerts at dawn.
Google Play
Love the Bird Fans community. My kids check it every day after school to see who visited the feeder. The cloud plan upgrade unlocked AI names for every clip and it's been worth every penny — feels like having a nature guide in your pocket.
Google Play
Works well overall. The live view sometimes needs a refresh tap before loading but once it connects the stream is stable. I wish the activity zone feature were free instead of part of a subscription, but the 3-day free cloud is a nice bonus.
