After Update, Works Great

My initial review noted how I was unable to have the sound/light connect to the app. Recently, Nanit pushed out an update correcting that issue and I am able to use the item with ease. Appreciate the fix! They also added a feature to schedule the light to turn off, so that was a nice add to the auto turn on option. All in, this item now works great and I’m happy we have it. I am giving 4 stars because I still think it shouldn’t be it’s own separate app from the camera.

Good but Annoying.

Honestly the quality of the sound machine is outstanding as well as the light settings. However, the volume & brightness controls on the app are truly awful. It’s incredibly frustrating to have to swipe up and down and hoping it lands on just the right setting to not wake up the baby. This is because it takes a few seconds for the app to the transmit changes to the device. Also, if your finger slips and you accidentally touch higher up on the volume or light scale, it’ll immediately jump up from whatever setting it was, to the new spot where your finger touched. Meaning your volume could go from 20% to 100% instantly. This is particularly frustrating when you’re sleep deprived at 4 am and you accidentally startle your infant awake. All in all, I wish the app allowed you to change the setting in which you could adjust your controls gradually. Having more control over this would be beneficial as these are not as easy to use as I think the developers thought they would be.

I like the favorites and the light. The sound is high quality. The light can get very bright and vibrant. I like that it can be used as an audio monitor (this is the main differentiator since it also plays sound). Things I wish could be better: 1) a way to dim the clock numbers since they are VERY bright - there is no way we could have it in our master. 2) improve the audio monitoring which is still in “beta” - occasionally the listening mode will drop out and again this is really the key feature. 3) track the cry alerts like how the camera does - yes, there is a phone notification, but then you cannot see a history of alerts in the app which is helpful if you have a care giver. 4) implement a way to truly only have Amber or Red light since Blue light is bad for babies sleep pattern. 5) integrate it better with the camera app - having two apps is annoying. I guess you’ve made it so you can switch between the two but when you have a care giver… it’s just one more thing.
