This guide actually covers the Petcube Bites 2 Lite, but I'm assuming all their cameras are similar internally.
Mine had stop giving treats because the mine motor had stopped spinning. Since my device was out of warranty, Petcube support didn't have other options than purchasing another device.
I didn't have anything to lose at this point to try to repair it myself, which ended up being not really hard, and is shown in this guide.
