Terrible Product DO NOT PURCHASE

While the picture and sound quality are great and the ability to move the camera around easily and without disturbing the baby is also great, arguably the most import piece of the puzzle, the app, is complete garbage. It’s extremely unreliable (a common theme among other reviews) and never allowed more than one person to be in the app at a time. And clearly Project Nursery does not care about the poor quality of it’s product bc these types of negative reviews have consistently come in for years. DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS.

Strongly don’t recommend

Go with a larger name brand camera that is cheaper and more reliable. I have no idea why they have made this thing so buggy. I should have just FaceTimed a cheap flip phone and that would have been better

Disappointed and waste of device

We tried our best to register on wifi and mobile data, it wouldn’t even connect. The app had a hard time registering and completing set up couldn’t get past it. Highly not recommended for purchase!

Waste of money! Wish we would’ve not purchased

The camara quality isn’t horrible with the night bison but that’s the only positive. The app is literally useless and unreliable. The speaker via app is hit or miss. For a monitoring system it’s garbage!

Worst camera app possible

This has to be the worst app for a camera possible, the camera itself is very nice but the camera is worthless with this app, please save yourself the money and get something else

Force close and won’t load

The app refuses to load camera data. Attempted to uninstall then reinstall and refresh page hundreds of times. The app now also force closing right after the page won’t load.

Unreliable

When the app and camera work, they work great. Unfortunately, it only works about 10% of the time. More often than not when trying to connect, I get the camera offline message when there is no reason for it to be. Our wifi has been flawless with everything except the cameras, so I know that isn’t the issue. If they would fix the connection issues this could be a decent setup, but considering how long this has been going on with no fix, I know that won’t happen.

Terrible/unreliable

This app is complete trash. It is so unreliable, it seems to only work when you’re in your house on the same WiFi. But anytime i step out of the house, it doesn’t refresh or it just shuts out of the app as soon as I try to open it.

Disappointed with this app

My boyfriend and I were gifted the monitor as a baby shower present. The camera itself works great but this app needs much improvement. The video constantly goes out and even though you tap the screen to reload, it doesn’t. When it does want to work, it freezes. Very unreliable - especially at night when my son is sleeping.

Disappointed

I was really excited about this monitor but have since been so disappointed. I have had this monitor for a year now and just have to deal with the fact that it takes me 20 minutes to get the app to connect to the camera. And sometimes it doesn’t even happen at all. Really frustrating and should not be happening with a baby monitor as we really need to be checking in frequently and at random. Will have to buy a new one. What a disappointment.

Do not purchase

Thus monitor was given to us by a family member at our baby shower. I really wish he would’ve read the reviews before buying, our experience has been the same as every other review and quite frankly I don’t know how they are able to keep selling this product. It is dangerous, the app is constantly freezing and disconnecting. There’s time when it won’t allow me to connect at all. Thankfully I have an older daughter who’s room is right next to baby and her and I are constantly checking on baby. Yes it sounds nice but promise you will regret it. Horrible horrible monitor

Frustrating

Completely unreliable. Always showing network error, camera offline, or just wont load. I dont know who is in charge of designing and updating this app but with an average of 1 star ratings you think that would find someone new. I’m so sick of having issues with the connection on this app. Pleaseeeee make it dependable!

Same as everyone else

We have the same issues as every other review. App crashes constantly. Notifications come and go and the only way to fix it is to delete the app and download again. Waste of over $100 on garbage product.

Do Not Buy

I HATE HATE HATE this monitor. I never leave bad reviews on anything but this one is warranted. The camera range, quality, and picture are just fine. The application is terrible. It disconnects nightly so we don’t know if our baby is awake crying or not. We rely on the app with the sound on in the background of our phone while sleeping and it consistently fails. We go through periods where the app won’t connect for us to even be able to see what is happening in our nursery. We do not have an internet or WiFi problem in our home...just a bad product problem. Please, do not waste your time or money using this product.

**I can’t leave a review without selecting a rating so please disregard the 1 star rating**

Worst App on My Phone

If this app weren’t necessary to operate a pricey camera that I unfortunately already sank money into, it would have been deleted LONG ago. It’s completely unreliable, and even when it does decide to work, it lags and freezes constantly. We have to turn the WiFi off on our phone to even get it to work. Nothing else in the house has WiFi issues. It’s the worst. I tried to return my camera, but because I don’t have the receipt (camera was a gift) I’m stuck with it.

Works very inconsistently

You never know if this camera is going to work. It regularly loses connection. Lately I’ve had to stop using it completely because it keeps making very loud beeps that wake up my child (due to connection issues?). An update to software is badly needed. The camera quality is good when it works, and so is night vision. It just can’t stay connected. This problem used to be really mild, but now it’s constant.

Save your money

WHY CANT I GUVE THIS ZERO STARS!?!? Go with another camera. This one will make you want to throw your phone out the window. Which would be a shame since it’s not the phone that’s the problem, it’s the camera system. It hardly ever works.. honestly it works about 5% of the time. My baby is only 6 months old and it’s only worked a handful of times.

Customer service is useless, pretty much told me tough luck and hopefully I can return it wherever I got it. SAVE YOUR MONEY. PLEASE DONT BE ROPED IN BY ALL THE COOL THINGS IT CLAIMS TO DO. it’s just so awful and I wish I saw these review before throwing my money out.

Worst baby monitor ever

This baby monitor seemed awesome since you could watch the baby from anywhere, so when on a trip you could watch your beautiful baby sleeping. But this has been the worst baby monitor we have ever used. Either the camera is offline or needs to be reloaded. Your baby could be crying in the middle of the night and you wouldn’t know because the app had failed. We tried multiple times to reset or download the camera again unsuccessfully. Would not recommend this monitor ever.

Awful

Do not get this monitor! Waste of money. There has been time where it would froze, camera offline and monitor resetting itself.
I’m hard of hearing and I rely on the monitor when my daughter is up from her nap or from bedtime. It has been the 3rd time where we don’t get notifications. Not just for a week, it would be for a month and a half, then suddenly it worked at 3am in the morning and continued to for about 2 weeks. I’m constantly checking the monitor. It is very frustrating! My husband and I are buying a different one and once the new one comes, this project nursing monitor is going to the garbage!

The worst

This monitor and corresponding app are garbage. 8/10 times it says reload when I open it to check on baby. The app itself doesn’t work with Alexa show, so I have to leave it running on my phone and it drains my battery. I wish I didn’t buy it
