### 3/5 — １点

*2026-01-14*

ナイトモードに切り替えた時になぜか画面をMAX値近くまで明るくするのをやめてほしい
意味不明だし不要な機能すぎる。その他の使い勝手は悪くない

### 5/5 — Just what we need

*2025-01-28, version 5.1.0*

Simple and easy to use, it’s not over engineered or packed with unnecessary features. Well worth the cost.

### 5/5 — Great investment

*2025-01-25, version 5.1.0*

First and only time I purchased an application. I needed a baby phone occasionally for my first born and did not want to spend much money as it would be used on very rare occasions. I bought this app instead and it was so worth it. I use it a lot with my second baby. I love the video feature. I place my iPad in the baby’s room as a baby-station and use my phone as a parent-station. The app is so easy to use and very reliable.

### 5/5 — Great little app

*2025-01-20, version 5.1.0*

Works easy.  We have the parent station on 2 phones

### 5/5 — BEST BABY MONITOR!!

*2025-01-17, version 5.1.0*

we went to Hawaii and I have a sick grandmother at home and we could monitor everything she did!

### 5/5 — Effective and easy to use and inexpensive!

*2025-01-05, version 5.1.0*

Love it- been using it for years. Even with older kids, it’s great if they are sleeping and we are sitting outside.

### 5/5 — Great app as dog monitor

*2024-12-31, version 5.1.0*

We use this all the time when we travel to monitor our dogs in hotel rooms. That way if they make any noise or if anybody comes into the room or if we need to know about anything at all, the Baby Monitor notifies us. Fantastic app for traveling.

### 5/5 — Incredibly useful

*2024-12-26, version 5.1.0*

We use this app with a spare iPad while travelling with the kids to see the grandparents. It avoids having to take a large baby monitor setup, and we can even check in on the kids while the grandparents are baby sitting and we are on date night. It’s been very useful.

### 5/5 — A must have great app!

*2024-12-14, version 5.1.0*

From functionality to UI. Wish it would have the ability to connect to more than one station simultaneously.

### 5/5 — Just works.

*2024-11-24, version 5.1.0*

This is the best kind of app there is. No fuss, does exactly what’s on the tin and does it well.

### 5/5 — So easy to set up and use

*2024-11-15, version 5.1.0*

Love it!

### 5/5 — Amazing and simple

*2024-11-12, version 5.1.0*

So good. Better than most baby monitors and for very little money. Also great to have the app on parents or other care takers phones!

### 5/5 — Baby monitor app

*2024-11-11, version 5.1.0*

Brilliant app. Use it all the time

### 5/5 — Excelente app

*2024-11-02, version 5.0.0*

Es una app excelente me permite estar pendiente de mis hijos si importar el lugar o distancia. Lo único necesario es una buena señal de Internet

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2024-10-22, version 4.17.3*

Todo me parece excelente de esta aplicación.

### 5/5 — Just perfect

*2024-09-22, version 4.17.3*

Used it for 5 years and that saved our life.

### 5/5 — Super pratique et efficace

*2024-08-10*

L’application est simple, très efficace et permet de suivre l’évolution du sommeil de bébé au cours de la nuit avec plusieurs fonctionnalités intéressantes. 
Pratique aussi pour surveiller bébé de loin (quand il est gardé par une baby-sitter par exemple)
Je la recommande très fortement

### 5/5 — Stable and polished

*2024-07-30, version 4.17.3*

Really thoughtful piece of software, and really robust when I have bad or intermittent reception. When I’m in doubt I can go back and listen to that rustling noise to check if it just might be my little boy crying (it’s not), or simply watch my beautiful baby sleeping for hours on end (often) even while sipping my latte. So worth it ... we’ve used same app this for both our children for just a few dollars, while special purpose baby monitors that cost tens or hundreds of times more have come and gone.

### 5/5 — Great for on the go!

*2024-05-29, version 4.17.3*

Love this app because it’s great for travel, when we’re on the go, or even spots in the house that I don’t have a monitor plugged in. Definitely recommend.

### 1/5 — Can’t seem to cancel subscription

*2025-09-03, version 5.1.2*

I want to cancel subscription to this, but don’t see how. I have tried the apple app method, but it is still charging me each month

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-07-09, version 4.17.3*

Did not work on strong data or wifi. The video would work for a second and then stop and not restart automatically, so it was completely unusable. Will try to get our money back for the two phones we purchased on tonight.

### 1/5 — Não perca seu dinheiro

*2023-04-18*

Você compra o App e eles não explicam mas vc precisa ter outro celular ou iPad com o mesmo ID Apple. Comprei para usar com minha esposa e ela não consegue baixar sem ter que comprar também. 
Paguei e não consegui usar quando estava precisando em uma viagem. 
Joguei meu $$ no lixo.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your review. We are sorry for your bad experience with our app. You don't need to purchase the app twice for devices on the same platform. If you're using iPads and iPhones with different Apple IDs, you can share the purchase through Apple Family Sharing (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201088 ). Please contact us at helpme@tappytaps.com for assistance with setting this up or any other questions. We'll be glad to assist you and help you get the most out of the app. 🙂

### 1/5 — …

*2022-11-28*

we need to pay for each device to get apps otherwise we can’t get the number to connect to the main device. 
the video is clear only when the lights on.
when it’s off you can’t see anything.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your review. 

The app does not need to be purchased for each device if you use devices with the same platform. Unfortunately, there are no tools that would allow us to share the license between individual application stores. For this reason, the app needs to be purchased once for each platform (not each device). The app has a Night Light feature that helps you see better in the dark. 

Feel free to contact us at helpme@tappytaps.com if you need more information. 🙂

### 1/5 — Privacy Nightmare

*2022-11-22, version 4.17.0*

We specifically bought Baby Monitor 3G for its privacy features – it worked on a local network and authorised via 9 digit codes. At some point, TappyTaps decided to disable local connections and everything goes over the internet and their servers (check the current privacy policy). TappyTaps goes further to demand that users open port 5222 in their router.

Now BabyMonitor 3G has become spyware into your home. Who knows what they do with the videos, who knows what partners they have to turn on video monitoring when asked. TappyTaps has even taken down the privacy posts from 2014 from their weblog as well as removed all the posts from their knowledge base to try to cover their tracks. TappyTaps broke the bond of trust with its users.

What's even worse is that TappyTaps managed to push the privacy respecting version off of our iPhones and iPads (we had a bunch set up so this is not a one-time mistake on our part) and force us onto a version which sends all data over their server, when we had specifically been careful not to upgrade.

Avoid at all costs. Unfortunately most other monitoring apps are just as bad. I'm going to try using the remote camera app in FilmicPro.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2022-09-12, version 4.16.0*

I thought this was a brilliant idea at first, but quickly realised that it’s far from perfect. The app seems to eat up the battery of both devices, it’s set to permanently tell me that my child is awake, making this annoying humming noise when on quite and possibly draining my battery further. Every so often it suddenly makes a continuous high pitch noise, why you may ask? Who knows! It will not go away and eventually it wakes my son. So I am not sure what the rest of the 5 stars were all about, but from me it gets 0 stars.

### 1/5 — Does NOT Work do not buy!

*2022-09-06, version 4.16.0*

Purchase app 30 minutes ago worked for 11 minutes. Timed out and now not able to connect. Using while on vacation.

### 1/5 — Sound

*2022-02-08, version 4.15.2*

When I use this app on my phone while I’m sleeping it’s mutes my alarms and I don’t always hear them on for the first few seconds before their muted. Will no longer connect to anything

### 1/5 — Server down!!!

*2021-12-22, version 4.15.2*

The app is unusable when the developers server is down- which is apparently much more often then you would expect. Nice when it works but certainly something you can never rely on!!!

### 1/5 — Does NOT sync iPhone to Android

*2021-09-22, version 4.15.2*

I would like a refund. During pairing iPhone shows to enter a 9 digit code and the Android wants a QR code. Please return my money

### 5/5 — Thank you baby monitor3g!

*2026-09-03, version 6.0.0*

I sent a review and staff replied and gave me EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR! When will you update Apple TV version description? Please let me know soon! Bye!

### 5/5 — Good app! But….

*2026-07-12*

Hi Really good app! I like the way it can connect to my Apple TV really well! The reason I am taking away 1 star is because my TV can only be a parent station and I went in the Apple TV App Store and In the “ App description” section and it said in future updates there will be a monitoring log and baby station for Apple TV ( using Apple TV as baby station and a log for parent also on Apple TV) So when will it be available? Plz let me know! Bye!

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you very much for your review and for pointing this out. We're glad to hear that you are enjoying using Baby Monitor 3G with your Apple TV.
Apple TV can only be used as a Parent Station because it does not have a microphone and therefore cannot function as a Baby Station. However, you are right that the information suggesting additional features would be added in future updates is no longer up to date, and we're sorry for the confusion. We currently don't have any further updates planned for the Apple TV version, but we truly appreciate your interest and feedback. We hope you'll continue to enjoy using the app!

### 5/5 — Gibt Freiheit

*2026-06-13*

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ich nutze diese  Babyfon-App jetzt schon eine ganze Weile und möchte es nicht mehr missen. Die WLAN-Verbindung ist ein großer Pluspunkt, weil sie deutlich mehr Freiheit bietet als ein klassisches Babyfon mit begrenzter Reichweite. So kann ich auch mal im Garten, bei den Nachbarn oder im Keller etwas erledigen und weiß trotzdem, dass ich erreichbar bin, falls mein Kind mich braucht.

Besonders praktisch finde ich, dass die Videoanzeige zwar verfügbar ist, aber nicht ständig laufen muss. Meistens reicht mir der Ton völlig aus. Wenn ich kurz nachsehen möchte, ob mein Kind wirklich schläft oder nur ein Geräusch gemacht hat, schalte ich die Kamera einfach dazu. Genau diese Flexibilität gefällt mir sehr.

Eine Funktion, die ich vorher gar nicht auf dem Schirm hatte, ist die Anzeige, wann zuletzt ein Geräusch erkannt wurde. Das klingt erst einmal unspektakulär, gibt mir aber tatsächlich viel Sicherheit. Wenn ich auf die App schaue und sehe, dass seit längerer Zeit kein Laut mehr zu hören war, weiß ich direkt, dass alles ruhig ist und auch seit längerem schon war. 

Neulich saß ich abends noch gemütlich bei den Nachbarn, während mein Kind drüben  geschlafen hat. Früher wäre ich wahrscheinlich gefühlt alle 5 min mal  nachschauen gegangen. Mit diesem Babyfon kann ich einfach entspannt sitzen bleiben und weiß trotzdem jederzeit, wie die Lage ist.

Für mich eine wirklich gelungene Lösung, die viel Freiheit mit gutem Gewissen gibt. Meine Tochter schläft einfach sehr fest und gut, so dass wirklich noch nie was war. Daher gibt es eine klare Empfehlung.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für diese nachdenkliche Rezension. Wir sind sehr froh zu hören, dass Baby Monitor 3G Ihnen mehr Freiheit bietet und Ihnen hilft, sich verbunden und beruhigt zu fühlen, während Ihr Kind schläft. Es ist großartig zu wissen, dass Funktionen wie Audioüberwachung, optionales Video und die „zuletzt erkannten Geräusche“-Informationen in realen Momenten nützlich sind. Wir schätzen Ihre Empfehlung wirklich sehr und freuen uns, dass die App gut für Ihre Familie funktioniert. 😊

### 5/5 — Recommandé à 100%

*2026-05-03*

Tout à fait satisfaisant.
Pas grand chose à redire.
Fonctionnalités pour simplement recovoir les notifications en cas de bruit (avec sélection de la sensibilité), vidéo possible (pas forcément utile si trop dans le noir), possibilité d’écouter tous les bruits (comme un baby phone).

Donc ça fonctionne très bien (on utilise un vieux téléphone comme terminal côté bébé) et on peut se connecter comme terminal côté parents. (Plusieurs téléphones peuvent être connectés simultanément).

**Developer response:** Salut ! Merci pour votre avis positif. Nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que vous êtes satisfait de notre application et de ses fonctionnalités, y compris les notifications de bruit. Nous apprécions vos mots gentils et votre soutien ! 😊

### 5/5 — Macht Babyphone-Geräte im Prinzip überflüssig

*2025-08-04*

Wir verwenden diese App seit 9 Jahren, mittlerweile für unser 3. Kind und sind mehr als zufrieden. Die App erfüllt genau ihren Zweck und das absolut zuverlässig - nicht mehr und nicht weniger. Die Kopplung zwischen verschiedenen Geräten klappt immer problemlos und unkompliziert. Das finanzielle Investment ist minimal - insbesondere, wenn man bedenkt, was man dafür bekommt: eine personalisierbare Überwachung, je nach Wunsch nur akustisch oder zusätzlich visuell. Wir nutzen die App unterwegs auf Reisen und Festen, würden sie garantiert aber auch zu Hause nutzen, wenn wir nicht schon ein stationäres Gerät hätten. Heute würden wir ein solches vermutlich nicht mehr kaufen.

**Developer response:** Hallo, vielen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass unsere App Ihrer Familie seit so vielen Jahren und bei allen drei Kindern zuverlässig dient. Wir wünschen Ihnen und Ihren Kleinen weiterhin viele ruhige und entspannte Momente. 😊

### 5/5 — コスパ最強

*2025-06-23*

1,000円では十分すぎる機能。開発者に感謝を伝えたい。

**Developer response:** こんにちは、貴重なレビューとお言葉をいただきありがとうございます！私たちのアプリに大きな価値を見出していただけて、とても嬉しいです。あなたのサポートは私たちにとって大きな意味があります。😊

### 5/5 — A simple and well made app

*2025-04-29, version 5.1.2*

So easy to use and it works well. I love that you can adjust the sensitivity and turn on the camera if you want. It’s just good!

### 5/5 — Amazing.

*2025-04-16, version 5.1.2*

Affordable. Works great as long as you have good WiFi. Mic sensitivity is adjustable and works fantastic. Doesn’t drain device battery. Fingers crossed it stays this good after giving a 5 star review xD

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2025-03-18, version 5.1.0*

Very reliable and useful app that can transform your old iPad to a monitor. We use it mainly for our dog, but worked well for our kid too.

### 5/5 — Best available

*2025-03-01*

The no Nonsense app…

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for your straightforward feedback about our app! We are happy that our app is the best choice for you. 😊
