I’ve been using this app for months now and it’s been a life saver. My previous baby monitor had stopped working and I had an iPad that’s barely being used laying around. I repurposed this iPad to be my Baby Unit. I’ve had no issues with video or audio on my Parent Unit. My Parent Unit is on the latest iOS Version 26.4. App version is on 5.8.9. Everything still running amazing. I’m not a bot and I’m convinced the recent reviews are bots to try and tear this app and the devs down. I’m not affiliated with these devs. This is an honest review. Hope this helps ### 5/5 — Love this *2026-03-16, version 5.8.9* Love this monitor app! Would love to have an option to store activity log for more than 24 hours. ### 2/5 — Great when works *2026-02-10, version 5.8.9* Works most of the time, occasionally randomly stops working when trying to reconnect the two devices even if they are right next to each other and both have WiFi. It’s really frustrating for an app that you pay for ### 3/5 — Fail at times *2025-12-07, version 5.8.9* I notice once in a blue moon the screen will freeze. I had times where my child would come up to me crying but my screen still shows a frozen screen of her sleeping. I wish there was a way I could have this app loudest in my phone. ### 3/5 — Works 50% of the time *2025-11-17, version 5.8.9* I am two rooms from the baby unit with a router in the parent room and in the room between. The internet connection is steady. The monitor randomly beeps al night like it’s going in and out of signal. I can use the brightness feature sporadically. What am I doing wrong? Sometimes this works perfectly and sometimes not at all. ### 4/5 — Great Product! *2025-11-06, version 5.8.9* Great product but I had trouble getting the extended range feature to work. It turned out that I had to disable VPN. It would have been nice if that was mentioned in the troubleshooting section. I couldn’t find anything about that on the internet, so I had to figure it out myself, which was a pain. If it wasn’t for that, it would have been an easy 5 stars. ### 5/5 — My Daughter Was Raised On This App! *2025-10-11, version 5.8.9* Downloaded it when we came home from the hospital and now she’s about to turn five. Arguably my favorite iPad/iOS app of all time. Purchasing gave me freedom. From dedicated hardware. From proprietary chargers. From more STUFF. And connected us without friction to our little one as she’s grown. We still use it, too. The developer strikes a nice balance in supporting older devices so an old device that isn’t used for much else can still be a great monitor. Kudos. They also make compatible tvOS (Apple TV) and macOS versions of the app. We have used them all!!!!!! ### 5/5 — So handy! *2025-10-04, version 5.8.9* I’ve used this since my daughter was 6months old and it has been really helpful. I couldn’t afford a baby monitor at the time, and with this I didn’t need one. Now she’s two and it’s still really helpful, letting me know she’s sleeping well and letting me hear her when she’s woken up of having nightmares or coughing. Great work team! ### 5/5 — Great for Pets too! *2025-09-15, version 5.8.9* I use this to monitor my cats when I’m travelling and it is great if you have multiple devices, I use my iPad and spare iPhone as cameras and can monitor from my primary phone ! Quality is great and you can even speak through the mic to your pets ### 2/5 — Not the best *2025-09-13, version 5.8.9* I have a new iPad and the fastest internet but it is really really slow even in the same room. But it works. ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2025-09-06, version 5.8.9* I was saved ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Managed to make app useless!! Congratulations to vibe devs! *2026-07-04, version 26.1.1* Used to work smoothly, now with the latest update it is constantly reconnecting every single second, literally, making the application completely unusable. ### 1/5 — Stupid *2026-06-22, version 5.8.9* Sound don’t freakin work turn everything on full blast turn Bluetooth off still don’t work ### 1/5 — Used to work. Not anymore *2026-06-13, version 5.8.9* Unable to connect my iPhone parent unit to baby unit iPad. Have used this for years with no trouble, but now it’s not connecting even though both devices are on the same WiFi network. ### 1/5 — Not updates *2026-01-17, version 5.8.9* It does not work properly on latest iOS version , you can’t log into your account or see the log . Last update 6 month ago … ### 1/5 — Used to be a good App no longer is. *2026-01-03, version 5.8.9* This app used to be so amazing and so reliable. And now in 2025/26 it is completely unusable and unreliable. ### 1/5 — I thought this would be good… *2025-12-27, version 5.8.9* Won’t even get a refund, so dev gets free money they didn’t earn. Broken mess with feed delayed by over a minute. Same WiFi, unrestricted connections for the devices, etc. I’m a techie, and gave the apps the most optimal setup and it’s so laggy and delayed. So much can happen to your baby in a minute. And then there is the expectancy to also pay for the desktop app?! Come on, you are probably sharing 90% of the code base and then ask more for the desktop app with all the same features? Not cool mate. Refunding ### 1/5 — No customer support *2025-10-22, version 5.8.9* Can't get constant video to work. I texted over 3 weeks ago for instructions after trying to figure it out with the FAQs and online searches. Nothing. ### 1/5 — Mit Watch nicht nutzbar *2025-10-13* Bin in einem Artikel auf diese App gestoßen, danach sollte sie mit der Apple Watch funktionieren. Habe leider nicht auf die aktuellsten Rezensionen geachtet. Leider kein zweites Gerät verfügbar, daher nutzlos. Schade! ### 1/5 — Apple watch not working with this app. *2025-09-04* Here and on its website mis information is given. Its not working with apple watch nothing is showing in watch.its fake. And if its not kindly enlight me to use the app. Or give my money back ### 1/5 — Very frustrating *2025-05-01, version 5.7.4* I had hoped this would be a very useful tool. However you pay up front then there is no way to refund when it doesn’t work correctly and it doesn’t. The devices won’t connect. When looking at settings on an iPad it shuts the program down. Just wasted money and time trying to get it to work. Completely unreliable for a huge need. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — using this app for last 6 years *2026-08-14, version 26.1.3* incredible app just need internet, it is amazing! must buy!!!! ### 5/5 — highly recommend *2026-08-12, version 26.1.3* I think this app is great. Love the part that I can put the phone to my ear and can listen. And the fact that you could turn the flashlight on on the screen is really cool too, so I can see what’s going on. 10 out of 10 Recommend ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-06, version 26.1.3* Amazing product ### 5/5 — Bought 11 years ago. Still use it everyday for my canine babies. *2026-07-28, version 26.1.3* We love this low cost monitor better than the expensive models … thank you !!! ### 5/5 — Xx *2026-07-26, version 26.1.3* Xx ### 5/5 — Worth the $6.99! *2026-07-21, version 26.1.3* Downloaded this on our iPad and my iPhone while we’ve been living in hotels while waiting for military housing. I tried several others that had free versions but this one was worth the one-time fee! Definitely recommend. ### 5/5 — Works great! *2026-07-07, version 26.1.2* I am using with an old iPad when I babysit my grandson and it works so good. It sends immediate alerts for movement and sound and you can check in live on your parent device. ### 5/5 — Saved our vacation *2026-06-01, version 5.8.9* Usual VTrech monitor crapped out and this app came to the rescue. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-05-18, version 5.8.9* This app works exactly like I wanted. Not clunky, connects easily, works great. ### 5/5 — Well-thought out and designed with parents in mind! HUGE PLUS - NO SUBSCRIPTION! *2026-05-12, version 5.8.9* I don’t normally write App Store reviews, but this one deserves one for sure, especially for new parents or parents with new babies alike. Today, every app wants to be a recurring subscription and it’s so annoying everything‘s behind a paywall and my first thought was having our spare iPhone be used as a monitor as Baby tech is so behind the times that it feels like the one we bought on Amazon is from the 90s. I started with a pretty popular app called Alfred and the quality was so bad and every functionality even the stream quality was behind a paywall subscription. Gross. Come along to found this app it addresses so many things and has features that are catered to parents. It’s well-thought-out and integrated very nicely into the Apple ecosystem that if you own other Apple devices, you’ll know how well you can seamlessly use it from your watch to your Apple TV to your MacBook. It also has two a talking, which is helpful to sue the Baby with your voice and built-in white noise, which allows us to remove the small white noise machine we had in her bassinet, but the biggest plus to this app and huge highlight is that it’s a one time payment with no ads. It really deserves to be more expensive for one time and I appreciate the developer still charging what he does today at the time I paid was 6.99. Great developer and deserves the praise!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
