I purchased this baby monitor over others simply cause the UI looked cleaner and better than some of the other apps that more people had reviewed. Purchased it because we were away on vacation and wasn’t able to take our normal baby monitor with us. The first time using it, the base station was connected to the hotel WiFi and my phone was on cellular. The video feature didn’t work and after about 30 minutes the parent station stopped being connected to the base unit. This of course created a little anxiety. Later when I tried again, I ensured that both units were connected via cell signal and the video function and the connection seemed more reliable. It seems the either mixing WiFi and cell between units could create a strange miscommunication or inconsistency or the hotel’s WiFi may have been the culprit. Ultimately I’m going to keep using it and hopefully my trust in the app’s ability to not disconnect with increase. So far so good though.

My baby has some breathing problems and one reason I like to have a monitor is so we can hear his breathing. I thought this app would be good, but it stops audio streaming whenever it thinks it doesn’t pick up sound. I constantly have to turn the audio streaming back on every few minutes unless I place the baby station phone right next to his mouth, which isn’t practical as he moves while sleeping. I wish the app would have given more information about the streaming capabilities. I needed something that could stream audio all the time, not something that stops every few minutes. There also should be more settings in the app. There is an echo mode but no explanation as to what this is or way to turn it on or off. There’s also no way to turn down the alarm volume, so if you have the parent station volume set to high so you can hear, the alarm will be very loud. I bought this app and these are obnoxious bugs/lack of features that made me stop using it. However, for what it does do, it does it well, and if you are looking for something that cannot stream audio full time and only stays on for a short while then it is useful for checking in on your baby. But it’s not a replacement for a real monitor.

Turning on audio streaming always requires multiple tries and app restarts. And audio streaming stops after an alert was played! Why?? It also sometimes stops on it’s own. Online devices sometimes just don’t show up, requiring to force quit the app and start it again. The app also can’t do anything about the phone being silent after a focus or dnd mode automatically activated at night. This is a real security risk when the phone just goes silent and the baby cries for a long time without anybody noticing. There should be multiple alert modes like alexa integration, sms and email fallbacks and second and third alternative phones (grandparents) alerts etc. Do everything to make sure an alert gets trough somehow!Feature requests:Make a pause button to silence alerts when I am in the room with the baby. It is so annoying to constantly hear the alerts when I try to sooth the baby.Also add alerts for device movements! Often our two year old wakes up and plays with the ipad but does not cry. Detect touches and accelerometer movements!

Husband and I were on vacay with our newborn and two littles and downloaded this as an interim baby monitor on both our iPhones. Once downloaded, the iPhone designated as baby monitor kept noting the baby as awake even though she was asleep. Possibly was picking up the sound machine as crying? But we couldn’t get it to switch to “asleep” at all. Also, might have been the wifi at the rental, but the parent unit kept disconnecting from the baby unit and we would receive a notification for each disconnection. Lastly, it kept asking up to upgrade without an option to bypass other than a 15 minute “trial.” So it would seem that the app is not functional whatsoever without purchasing the “premium” option. Would seem more practical to just list the app at the purchase price of the premium membership so it would not be the hassle of trying to use the app without success. Overall, couldn’t use the app for our stay and off to search for a better option!
