Baby Monitor Phone Application
With that in mind, these are the best baby monitors we've tested. If you're interested in keeping an eye on your whole home and not just your child's room, check out our list of the best home security cameras for more flexible surveillance options.
WiFi Baby Monitor allows you to monitor you baby through video and audio broadcasts. You can zoom in and out to see what the baby is doing and what’s happening in the surrounding. It is highly secure as it has password protection for cameras while allowing simultaneous connections for multiple viewers. It also has both iOS version and Android version.
The most recent crop to enter the fray are monitors that use Wi-Fi and 3G/4G networks and smartphones to safely and securely transmit data, letting you easily check in on your napping baby while texting at home or out at the grocery store.
Phone Monitor App For Couples
Cloud Baby Monitor ($3.99) This tricked-out app broadcasts video and audio, allowing you to listen to your baby's every coo, view her movements, and even sing her to sleep. (Industry-standard encryption protects all communication, for extra peace of mind.) "It also provides noise and motion alerts so you're instantly aware of your baby's discomfort, [and offers] built-in lullabies, various white noises and a night light -- all of which you can control remotely," says Baran. Bonus: You can download a companion app for a Mac and watch your baby from your computer.
Watching your child from moment to moment is far more important than going over footage from previous nights, so baby monitors don't usually make a big deal about saving video for later, whether using built-in storage or through a cloud service. They can take snapshots and short clips when they detect movement, but they don't offer time-lapse videos of entire nights, or let you page through hours or days of footage. Those features are useful for identifying burglars, but they don't really help you watch your child unless you're in a Paranormal Activity sequel.
CodeGoo Baby Monitor is one of the best baby monitor applications for iPhone. This when installed in iPhone and placed near the baby, places regular phone calls to the number fed to the application. This works great while you are travelling.
iBaby currently works with iOS devices and provides parents with instant video and audio monitoring of their baby from wherever they are. As long as you're connected to the Internet, either via a Wi-Fi or 3G/4G network, and have the complementary iBaby Monitor app installed, you can pan and tilt the monitor to get a better view, and use the built-in audio feature to speak to your baby and offer gentle shushes if she starts to rouse. There is even a motion and sound detector that will alert you, based on the level of sensitivity you've selected.
Launch Monitor Phone App
Baby Monitor 3G (iPhone and Android App, $3.99) Have an Android and an iPhone? Check out the Baby Monitor 3G, which lets you mix-and-match phones that run on both operating systems. "It transmits live snapshots or video feeds from your baby's room, provides vibration alerts, and allows your baby to hear your voice," Baran explains. All communication is protected by industry standard encryption, and the app works with any Internet connection (read: Wi-Fi or cellular). Plus, you can check in from the comfort of your Mac, PC, or Chromebook.
