Annie Baby Monitor: Nanny Cam

Affordable, easy user interface, far better than spending money on gadgets and hardware I don’t need with all these old smartphones in my junk drawer. iPhone 8 Bugs to address: The image tends to “float” away or black-out entirely when the image is magnified, which can be tricky when I want to keep the image zoomed in on the baby for long lengths of time. Also there have been periods when the image was frozen, but the sound was still active. I’ve resolved that but putting a clock in the background. I DO appreciate how sensitive the sound monitoring is. I can hear a pin drop I’m sure. Otherwise I highly endorse this app.

The only reason I didn’t give this a 5 star is because I would like the picture quality to be much better. Being that I use two iPhones for this service I excepted the picture quality to be much better but it’s not. The sound quality is great tho. Another thing to consider is that it doesn’t have night vision. So I guess that’s why the picture quality is so bad when there is low light. Some things to note is that during the day, when there is light, the picture quality amazing. The only thing I would like them to do is update the resolution and add a (night vision) feature. I use the baby cam because I have to keep a close eye on my son who is epileptic and having a light on at night is not ideal, so I just can’t wait for that new update to see how well it does. Otherwise great app for only 30$ a year!

Works great! Love it! Originally purchased when in a pinch late at night as a security cam to protect $15k of toys, tools and equipment in an unattached garage at my home after I happened to interrupt some thieves breaking in. Liked it so much I bought a year of service and it’s notified me handful of times to potential thieves trying to take my stuff (extremely high crime area). Also have used to give me advanced notification for when expected (or unexpected) visitors arrive. Used frequently for almost a year now w/ only a minor issue and to remedy the situation I had to close app on both devices and relaunch (which may not have been the app and could be the connection with the internet provider, cell provider or the old iPhone SE or the brand new latest iPhone I was using). Highly recommend
