Not compatible with iOS 12.1. Last update was a year ago. Can only view while on wifi. Does not work with cellular data since iOS 12.1 update. Please fix! ### 2/5 — Crap *2018-02-28, version 3.0.0* This use to be perfect till Nokia bought out the company now I am having nothing but trouble with there products ### 4/5 — App update *2017-09-24, version 3.0.0* Miracles do happen... Thanks tonthe Nokia Team to making the app IOS 11 compatible. It is hard enough to be a parent and i do appreciate that you did your part of the deal. I also have a Home Withings, but it cant be mounted so it means the world to me that you upgraded the software. This will make the difference between me buying your products in the future or not. I do appreciate that you value your current customers. Best regards, Axel Many thanks Axel ### 2/5 — Not compatible with iOS 11 *2017-09-24, version 3.0.0* The app is just ok. Nothing fancy, nothing great, nothing terrible... But the worst is that since I upgraded to iOS 11, I can’t use it anymore... looks like withings guys are not investing in the app anymore, and for the price of their devices, I think this is a shame. ### 3/5 — Updated, but... *2017-09-22, version 3.0.0* So well done to Nokia for reluctantly updating the app after iOS 11 stopped supporting it. It’s not like I’m not grateful, but none of the bugs have been addressed, just simply 64bit support to make it work on iOS 11. This is a great piece of hardware, it would be really nice to have some great software to go with it. ### 3/5 — Buggy app but supports iOS 11 *2017-09-22, version 3.0.0* Despite this being a bug riddled. Such as alerts for no reason and disconnecting from the baby camera for no reason at all. Withings or Nokia decided to keep the app running by upgrading to run 64bit on iOS 11 dispute the app no being updated for 3 years plus. So I don’t have to throw away the expensive with baby camera and replace it. Of course I like to see the the bugs in he app squashed but the fact it still runs is good enough for me. ### 1/5 — Update Needed for IOS11 *2017-09-20, version 2.02* Need update to IOS11 for the app to work ### 2/5 — iOS 11 support please *2017-09-19, version 2.02* I’ve long since made my peace with the bad quality and design of this app. It’s amateur hour for sure—although the hardware is great. But please rebuild and resubmit your app for 64 bit support so it works on iOS 11. You’ve had months to do this and it’s not rocket science. ### 1/5 — IOS update is killing the app *2017-09-19, version 2.02* And withings couldn't care less. Update the app!!! I've spent plenty of money on this baby monitor. It still works. ### 3/5 — Update for ios11? *2017-09-19, version 2.02* Any plans to provide an update for iOS 11. This application shows up on the incompatibility list. ### 3/5 — iOS 11? *2017-09-18, version 2.02* It works fine but will they update for iOS 11??? I get a message that it will not work if I update to 11. ### 1/5 — Another abandoned product by Withings! *2017-09-17, version 2.02* Unfortunately Withings was acquired by a tiny company named Nokia(perhaps you've head of them) who doesn't have the resources to maintain this app. ### 4/5 — Where are the updates?! *2017-08-12, version 2.02* I've been a happy user of this monitor for close to two years, getting a little concerned with the new ownership that this monitor may become completely useless with the new iOS 11 update coming... ### 1/5 — Flawed, abandoned app *2017-08-03, version 2.02* Shamefully left to rot as they concentrated on the Home camera which can't even be mounted anywhere but on a shelf. I suspect this app is 32-bit too so it'll stop working with next big iOS update. Flog your cameras on eBay and move to something else. ### 1/5 — Need to update your app sir!!! *2017-07-18, version 2.02* This app works just fine. But there hasn't been an update ever since I bought it 3 yrs ago. Looks like this company just it in the dark now. What a useless 300 dollars it was. Update your app boys we need this 300 dollar camera still. I won't be buying products from this fools again. ### 1/5 — Concept is good, execution not so much *2017-07-09, version 2.02* Just like the 2 previous reviewers have mentioned, the app and accessory is a good idea but the problems lie in the panning and zooming and lack of a smoothe transition as well as constant crashes The app will not work with iOS 11. Pls sort out or refund customers who purchased your expensive monitors ### 1/5 — :( *2017-07-04, version 2.02* No support iOS 11 ### 1/5 — Old *2017-06-29, version 2.02* The developer needs to update the app ### 3/5 — Love the App - needs an update *2017-06-20, version 2.02* I've been using the app since my daughter was born 3 years (now we only check it every so often to make sure she's still in bed) and love it - a lifesaver for us when she was in her first year of life (after learning to use it on wifi and not use up so much data). Now, almost every time I use the app, I get a message from Apple saying that the developer needs to update the app otherwise it won't work soon - please update to keep up with the new iOS! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not working *2021-06-30, version 3.0.0* I received this as a gift and I can’t seem to get it connected through the app. Id like to know if it’s just mine or they don’t work at all? ### 1/5 — NEVER CONNECTS TO BLUETOOTH! *2021-02-10* Takes about 10 times to connect and only after I get up from one end of house to baby room and unplug cord from monitor and reconnect. Did that daily as I tucked in my child because I already knew it would need to be done to work. That was over a yr ago. NOW it says make sure in range! If it’s able to work from another state WHY DONT IT CONNECT in the SAME HOUSE. Please fix! Better yet Please send m a New Model that works for Real! Loved how it worked 5 hrs ago perfect NO Problems at all and now that my child wants me to just Say goodnight I Love You from My bed that I’m watching over her it won’t Connect at all ever. Loved it once maybe I need new one sent to me. Thanks again ### 1/5 — Crashes constantly on iPhone X max *2019-09-24, version 3.0.0* Total rubbish won’t work at all on my iPhone X and very slow and unreliable on my iPhone 7. Could be such a great product but too unreliable. Zero stars ### 1/5 — Not working with iOS 12.1 *2018-12-16, version 3.0.0* Since update doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2018-12-10, version 3.0.0* Very unreliable. Constantly disconnects throughout the night. Fuzzy picture. I do not recommend. ### 1/5 — Stoped working *2018-09-11, version 3.0.0* After last update camera doesn’t connect to wifi! In the beginning all was good but as time passed it turned crazy on us! Not cool for customers and we will not buy more products as this problem continued... ### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work *2017-11-12, version 3.0.0* Can’t get it to work ### 1/5 — IOS 11? *2017-09-21, version 3.0.0* Apple have released IOS 11. Are you going to update your app so it’s work with it? ### 1/5 — Does not work with IOS 11 *2017-09-21, version 3.0.0* Does not work with IOS 12 ### 1/5 — Bel objet mais compagnie de merde *2017-09-20, version 2.02* Après 1 an la batterie a lâché impossible de la remplacer Et aucun suivi sur l’application depuis 3 ans Maintenant il n’est plus possible de l’utiliser avec iOS 11 A tous les acheteurs de produits withing/Nokia ne comptez pas sur une utilisation longue durée cette compagnie vous vend un produit et ensuite s’en fout de vous. 300$ pour un babyphone qui marche qu’à moitié après un an et qui ne fonctionnait plus après 2 ans c’est inacceptable. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Thanks for the Update *2017-09-21, version 3.0.0* Thank you for the update now working perfectly in ios11 perfect timing for me, dreaded the thought of having to buy a new unit. ### 5/5 — works very well *2016-05-11* I had mixed success with previous versions of this app. But I've been using it to monitor my new born baby for months now and it is fantastic. I had hoped that the withings home would have been a better device, and it is, just not a better baby monitor. I especially like that I can move the device to a new room when needed and it will continue to operate on the built in battery. ### 5/5 — Love it... Works perfectly *2015-10-03, version 2.02* Quite simply... We love this baby monitor. It always works well and was easy to setup. We had 1 monitor for the first child and liked it so much we got a second monitor when our second child came along. Thank you for making a great app and product. ### 5/5 — 1 in my book *2015-07-22* I really don't get the reviews. I read them over prior to my Withings camera purchase, and did further research, then decide to get it anyway. And I have not one complaint. It works in the house. Outside the house and everywhere in between. It does chip out for a second here or there but I chalk that to the fact that u have it over a wifi network. If I plug the Ethernet cable in, I suspect it'd be flawless. I love it. The wife adores it. She's not even a "techie" and she gives it a 10 out of 10. ### 5/5 — Works as advertised! *2015-06-28* I have had this camera and have been using this app for at least 6 months. I have never had any of the issues that other reviewers have had, and have even used it when I am out of the country (both from the web interface and the iPhone/iPad apps) without an issue. I have recently gotten the apple watch, and I hope that there will be an update to the app giving it apple watch support as they have with the within go home camera. This is the best camera on the market bar none! ### 5/5 — Best baby monitor you will find in the market *2015-05-04, version 2.02* I have try many baby monitor including iBaby, and even withings Home but nothing compares to this monitor... Cons: I haven't find a monitor in the market that give you the humidity, the temperature, and that you can connect as many people at the same time as you want (like the grandparents overseas) Cons: will be nice that you can "move" the screen like the iBaby. Also we are waiting for the apple watch version and for the web version. Bottom line: I totally recommend the app and ten monitor.. It is worth it for the price. Tip: after the baby grows it can be use as a security camera. ### 5/5 — Great *2015-01-31, version 2.02* Excellent app. I gave to 3 of my friends. Work great. Never disconeted in 12 mouths. ### 5/5 — Love my WithBaby! *2014-08-10* We've been using this for 4 months and love it! Haven't had the issues others are talking about. Running the app on 2 up to date iPhone 4S's and an older gen iPad that's definitely not up to date. Has disconnected a few times but shoddy home network is probably more likely to blame. Only complaint is about the device (battery runs out very quickly when not plugged in). App hasn't been perfect but overall love this monitor! ### 5/5 — Don’t get the bad reviews! It’s been perfect for me! *2014-07-03* I bought the monitor to keep an eye on our dogs and monitor the temp. in our RV. Then I read the reviews on the app and freaked. Well, I downloaded anyway to see what happened……….it’s been perfect, not one single problem. I do not understand what all the negative review are about, unless maybe from a competing company?? I love this thing, the app launches very quickly (way faster than my IZON!) and I have double checked the temperature readings as well. They are pretty accurate. So, for me, this is exactly what I have been looking for and it works like a charm. ### 5/5 — Great App and Great Support *2014-04-04, version 2.02* Couldn't be happier with the app and the tie in with the device. Glad to see the dev's responding to issues and addressing our needs. Keep up the great work and the great updates! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
