Waste of money, would not recommend. Time to return ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-12-29, version 3.0.8* The app is comically bad. Seems they just stopped updating it and no longer care. Perhaps the company is as sold or something. ### 1/5 — Junk app for overpriced junk equipment *2020-12-27, version 3.0.8* I hope you read this before buying the equipment, it’s garbage. The video latency is typically in excess of a couple of minutes (so we rely on the audio). The female side of the display USB charging port has detached from the case rendering the screen unchargable (and the case is designed not to be opened for basic repairs such as this), so we’re stuck using this joke of an app. Basic stuff doesn’t work: want to reset your password? No way to bring up a keyboard. Only a single access point can be saved so you have to re-pair whenever you move networks. The pairing process is flakey and unreliable. All in all - if you’re here downloading the app for your newly purchased monitor and have the ability to return it, do so ASAP and get something else. ### 1/5 — When it works, the picture is phenomenal. Too bad it rarely works. *2020-12-05, version 3.0.8* I’m beyond disappointed with this monitor. It rarely connects to the app, and I find most of the metrics (for example, room temp) to be incorrect. The most frustrating thing is if you’re looking at the video and you need to switch out to look at another screen, you won’t be able to go back to a live feed...you have to “reload,” which inevitably freezes the app. UGH. ### 1/5 — The app is terrible *2020-07-21, version 3.0.8* Has not been updated in years. Goes offline all the time even though WiFi signal strength is strong. ### 1/5 — Shocking !!! *2020-07-18, version 3.0.8* App is shocking. Always has issues. I don’t even get monitor alert notifications anymore. What a waste of $500+ ### 1/5 — Would give it 0 stars if it was an option *2020-07-17, version 3.0.8* Unreliable is an understatement. Works 1 out of every 5 times. ### 1/5 — Bad app and product *2020-06-19, version 3.0.8* This app and camera are total garbage. Don’t buy this camera ### 1/5 — The app is the issue with this monitor *2020-05-13, version 3.0.7* Every issue with the monitor comes down to the app itself. Even with a full wifi connection the camera lags behind the longer you have it open on your phone. When you swipe the screen to move the camera, you can see the camera has made the adjustment but it can sometimes take between 15-30 seconds before it is registered on the app. The settings menu for some reason is black writing on a black background. Some of the options are entirely unreadable. Others you can barely just make out what they are for. Overall when it is working it’s great, however it very quickly can fall behind and you’re left to refresh the camera feed just to get it back up to date. ### 1/5 — Constant problems *2020-04-22, version 3.0.7* I’ve had this camera for awhile now and I’m seriously always having problems with it, it’s always something, now for some reason there’s like a 5 minute lag! It never had it before but now for some reason it does. And there’s no fixing it. Can we get an app update for this annoying problem?! ### 1/5 — Worst purchase ever made *2020-04-08, version 3.0.7* I was wondering why I got this for so cheap when it seemed so promising. I think two cans attached to string would give a better effect. No wonder it was discontinued. I guess the only win I can take is getting it for under 20$! In actuality I should be PAID for trying to get this even set up! This is a lesson to go look at reviews before purchase, but it was so cheap I figured couldn’t hurt. WRONG! Thanks for the lesson at least. Pros: this is a good addition to my trash can!! ### 1/5 — Doesn't work with phone *2020-02-23, version 3.0.7* Purchased the device to use on phone, instructions say to scan QR code but there is no QR code on camera. Waste of money and absolutely useless ### 1/5 — Buy anything else *2020-02-05, version 3.0.7* This is one of the most expensive monitors on the market but should not be. Setup is difficult, there’s pretty bad lag, and the cameras go offline at least once a week requiring a full power cycle to bring them back on. Child’s asleep? You won’t know it’s off until you wake up to a blank screen. Have a temp nanny at home when it goes out? Guess you’re in the dark until you get home from work. Also, the multiple cameras in one app thing—it only works if they are the same model, which is impossible to determine unless you have the original documentation. When I wanted to add cameras I had to call the company, determine the model, only to find out my model was out of stock. Customer service said they would call me when they got more and never did (this was over 6 months ago) The cameras have been off for months now because of the use issues and we now have a permanent nanny we trust. Well this week she had a death in the family so we are using temps again. I went to refresh and reconnect the two cameras—they will not connect to the app on my phone despite over 2 hours of trying every possible troubleshooting method. Worse, when I unplugged and replugged one of the cameras, the power plug receiver broke loose and now is rattling around inside the housing. I am leaving them up so the temps THINK they are being watched but next week they are going straight in the trash, and good riddance! I have already purchased another 3 camera system online for less than these two cost and I can’t wait to have real functioning monitors again. ### 1/5 — Not waste your money *2020-01-17, version 3.0.7* Very unreliable product as their application software stops working properly against iOS updates. The only purpose I’ve purchased thus product is for the movement and sound notifications and it’s not working. I’ve been calling the support in USA for the last two days, finally got an admission that they have issues but no ETA when a fix is available as all technical team is in China apparently and they are waiting for an update. What a joke! Don’t sell a product if you can’t keep up with software updates, don’t waste your money!!! If I had the option, I could have marked as minus... ### 1/5 — Multiple issues *2019-12-30, version 3.0.7* Good quality image (regular and night) but the software is horrible. Cameras go offline several times a month at least. Also since the newest update there is no sound on either of our cameras and there is a ~10-15 second delay in image and for adjusting the position of the cameras. Our wifi is great, no problems with the MANY other devices on it so it seems that the issue is this product. ### 1/5 — Fine camera terrible app *2019-12-27, version 3.0.7* Don’t waste your money. The camera is great but the app never works. I’m going to have to find something else. It’s really awful. Crashes all the time, cameras never load or they take forever to load. They freeze and sometimes have a long lag time. Just a garbage program that just keeps getting worse. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 1 star is too generous *2026-06-02, version 3.0.8* I only gave 1 star because 0 wasn’t an option. This app is HORRENDOUSLY BAD! It’s impossible to use, it don’t let you sign up or sign in, only spins and spins until you give up. The monitor is impossible to use because the app is useless. ### 1/5 — What a waste *2025-12-01, version 3.0.8* App doesn’t work, can’t creat an account, can’t log in, just sits and spins until time out ### 1/5 — Bought for my dog and for security in the area *2025-10-19, version 3.0.8* App doesn’t work well at all. Connection is aweful. All they need to do is update some small features and it would be ok. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy *2025-06-27, version 3.0.8* App loads for ever and connecting to camera is bad. ### 1/5 — NO APPLACATION *2025-04-16, version 3.0.8* Please remove this application from App Store. ### 1/5 — Wack app *2025-02-03, version 3.0.8* App doesn’t work you can’t even go past making an account ### 1/5 — Not working *2024-12-22, version 3.0.8* Been trying to create an account for too long and it only says loading then goes back to creating account page again. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever. *2021-11-20, version 3.0.8* Garbage. ### 1/5 — Project Rubbish *2021-06-29, version 3.0.8* Do not waste your money, choose something else ### 1/5 — App needs big improvement *2021-01-31, version 3.0.8* Overall happy with the device I purchased however not happy with the app. Latency between the action and it showing on the app is drastically long and I am surprised this hasn’t been acted on seeing multiple people have complained about it and we are dealing with a device to check in on the safety of our children. App also does not support dark mode on iOS, so you have to change over to light mode to be able to read the writing on the app. User interface needs to be addressed as it could be more user friendly. Notifications needs to be more user friendly (eg ability to set when temperature or movement notifications come through instead of being 100% of the time). When in settings there is a message always displayed about the setting being saved right in the middle of the screen and can take ages to go away. Then when you tap something (without even making a change) the message reappears and takes ages to go away. If the above is addressed, this app would actually be decent however I doubt the developers follow an agile methodology as most of the above has been outlined over a year ago and nothing has changed. Update 01/02/21 App is force closing when going into settings. Nobody is looking at these reviews and how poorly rated they are. I now recommend avoiding purchasing this camera and look for a brand that has developers looking after the app regularly ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 4/5 — Amazing camera quality but app needs a lot of work *2017-10-11* First of all the Project Nursery wifi camera is amazing. Great quality and the night vision is the best. The app needs improvements. I wish I could keep the noise on in the background while using other apps like other iPhone monitor apps and on the lock screen. That's the only thing I find annoying that I have to go back and reopen time after time. Other than that this monitor is amazing. Hope their is an update soon 👍 ### 3/5 — New app is not as good *2019-09-11, version 3.0.1* My first review...We recently purchased a new camera because ours broke. The app we were using (blue project nursery) notified us when our little one cried or even moved. This app has the option, but we are not getting notified for some reason. Another thing I enjoyed with the old one was you could return to the home screen on your phone without exiting the app, and still hear our baby in the background. I would have never purchased a new one if I would have known it wasn’t the same app. The only thing I do like about it is the camera and sound quality. ### 3/5 — Eh. *2019-05-28, version 3.0.1* Camera is great when it decides to actually pair to my phone. Recently it’s saying altogether that I don’t have a camera on my account and won’t let me add it as a new one. ### 3/5 — Update app more regularly *2019-03-24, version 3.0.1* In your next update please have an option to control the volume of the sounds that play ### 3/5 — Will not load on my iPhone anymore... *2018-10-05* I had bought this when my son was born and I love the idea of being able to see him on the monitor while I was away at work through the phone app. I had been working great!! However, a few weeks has passed now where it will not load the camera at all. And once I select the camera, it states “Please check if camera is online or paired”. So I try reloading it, and nothing works. I have even tried to re-pair and start over. Nothing works. PLEASE FIX THIS!! I CANNOT USE MY MONITOR ANYMORE UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS RESOLVED!! ### 3/5 — Great Camera But Just A Few Issues *2018-06-04* Good camera and good quality video. I’m glad the new model has a built in battery in the camera so it can be placed in different rooms without the hassle of being tethered to an outlet. I also like that it is WiFi compatible and able to view live streams remotely. But I’m experiencing a few abnormalities. First thing I’d like to mention is that the time on the camera is not synching with the parent monitor nor through the app in the “camera time set” option (it is ahead by about 8 hours). Secondly, the pan/tilt features are reversed. When I swipe left, the camera turns to the right. Same goes for up and down-swipe up and it’ll tilt down. And lastly I’d like to address the picture/video record feature. I was surprised and I also appreciated that the camera came with its own memory card (most electronics do not provide external memory card and the majority of them say “sold separately”). So, when I try to take a snapshot of my baby or attempt to record a video clip, it states “Save Failed”. I looked up the manual and there it says to format the memory card, which I did to no avail. Are these frequent complaints about this monitor? If so, are there any updates that would resolve these problems? Or is it something that could easily be fixed? I tried looking online for answers but came up short with any answers or solutions. ### 2/5 — App No Good *2022-01-07, version 3.0.8* The monitor (camera component) itself is good, and has a lovely picture quality. Our issues are entirely with the app required to use the camera. - The app frequently has a major times delay (2-4minutes), I'll acknowledge that this could be due to poor internet connection. However our internet is very reliable, so I doubt that is the cause. - The apps software mutes the sound on it's own. I have an iPad in our room, streaming the monitor from the nursery. Several times I've woken during the night to Bub absolutely hysterical, all because the app has decided to mute itself and we haven't been able to hear the initial stirrings from Bub. This has caused a lot of stress for everyone, especially our baby. What is the point of having a monitor, if we cannot be woken by it while we sleep? This is by far, our biggest frustration. - The app will also randomly close itself down. So the frustrations remain the same as the point above. - The process to pair the monitor/camera to the app is not the most user friendly. We intended on using this monitor for overnight stays as well as in our own home, and it requires setting up each time you are using a different WiFi connection. However due to the difficult set up process (which took over an hour on our 1st overnight trip) we instead purchased a significantly cheaper monitor to use for traveling. I have been using this monitor now for 10 months, and have been patiently waiting for an app update in the hope that these issues would be rectified as "Bug fixes". I think it's fairly obvious to state, that has not happened. Considering the cost of the physical monitor, one would hope that the software required to use it would be up to standard and user friendly. We love the aspects of the monitor that work, the picture quality is lovely but I'm beginning to find the monitor useless based on the software. I cannot justify using a baby monitor, when it's unreliable at accurately monitoring my baby. ### 2/5 — Terrible UI *2020-09-30, version 3.0.8* The device is ok, but the app is terrible. Please update the app to modern design. ### 2/5 — Terrible *2020-04-18, version 3.0.7* When this camera works, it’s fine. But constantly having to “reload” camera is agitating. Even with the fastest internet, seems like it’s 50/50. Camera always logs out and takes a while to reconnect. Might as well physically go check on your baby. ### 2/5 — Connection *2020-01-17, version 3.0.7* I can’t add the camera...( any ideas how I can connect it? --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
