Q: How is the night vision?
submitted by Scooba - 5 years ago
A: Night vision feature is really good. Our baby is four months and we’ve had zero issues with it.
submitted byOsu123 - 5 years agoA: It’s great we tried other monitors but this one works the best. Would recommend.
submitted byOsu123 - 5 years agoA: Good until it quits working after 6 months.
submitted byBlaze - 4 years ago
Q: Can you link the video feed from this camera to an app on your phone?
submitted by Courtney h - 5 years ago
A: no you cannot. it is a wifi free unit and only reports to the receiver
submitted bymsaunders - 1 year agoA: I have this product and I’m not aware of an app for the baby monitor.
submitted byOsu123 - 5 years agoA: Not that I know of. You should contact company to see
submitted byMrs - 5 years ago
Q: Is it true that when u register it you get a free extra camera??
submitted by Beth - 5 years ago
A: I received one if I completed a review. It is super great having 2 once the baby started moving around in the crib
submitted byEricka Z - 4 years agoA: This should be a tell-tale sign that they are boosting reviews immediately after purchase because if you've owned it for longer than 6 months, its garbage.
submitted byBlaze - 4 years agoA: I received this from my registry, and I only got the one.

Q: Does this monitor have sound? First-time, soon-to-be mommy here and worried that we won't be able to hear baby with this monitor. Thanks in advance for your help!
submitted by KristinaJ - 5 years ago
A: Yes it has sound. You can hear everything with this monitor. It has several volume settings, but we just keep it on the highest setting. I can hear perfectly when our baby moves, etc. Its a good camera.
submitted byOsu123 - 5 years agoA: You can hear well. However, the microphone has a constant white noise sound you hear from the monitor side. It is way louder than your children and drowns them out. It's awful. I wish they would get a better speaker that only pics up your children! Huge flaw
submitted byMjheat - 2 years ago
Q: Does this have a function where you can turn screen off and use it as an audio monitor?
submitted by swimlat - 5 years ago
A: Yes, there’s a button on top of the baby monitor to turn the screen off but keep the audio on. It saves about 50% of the battery.
submitted byOsu123 - 5 years agoA: They do have a sleep mode, you can short press the power on/off/sleep button to turn the LCD screen off while keeping the audio on.

Terrible monitor - 9 days ago
absolutely terrible range. my room is just a few steps away from my child's room and it doesnt want to connect no matter what. i literally have to position it a certain way to get it to work, otherwise I'll wake up in the middle of the night to the stupid thing beeping saying no connection. not to mention the camera quality is not good. 10/10 do not recommend. I had an off brand monitor before I caved to buy this one, because j wanted one Wi-Fi free with pan/tilt. regretting that choice now. also, I've only had this monitor for a couple of months.
Highly recommend!

Amazing customer service. I had an issue with the sound on my unit and even though I was beyond the warranty period, they helped me out with troubleshooting and getting it fixed. It works anywhere we travel - so easy to set up and use. Love that we can get an additional camera and use the same monitor for new baby coming soon!

This is absolutely terrible. I have only used this TWICE, I shut it off completely after the last time I used this and went to go use it again and the battery is already dead?? I don’t know if I bought a defective one or what, but will be returning.
Best!

The best monitor! you don't have to worry about wifi connection problems since it doesn't run on wifi or worrying if you lose connection if you have wifi outages and the quality and picture is clear. Customer service also was very helpful and responsive to all my questions. highly recommend.

I’ve had this monitor for over 3 years. Just had a 2nd baby so got another camera to add on. I do have to say the new camera has way better night vision and way more clear. Overall it’s a simple and easy monitor works pretty good. Every now and then it looses signal from the range but has worked pretty good for us

Terrible range, poor batterry, low quality image. Its nit at all worth the money. Ours is completely useless after about 2 years. We got a less expensive unit that has more features and better quality.

BB - 2 months ago
I have had 2 sets and they both started to have issues around the 1.5-2yr mark. My first set I replaced with our second baby and now its not working. Both sets the antenna broke, range only reaches across our house but not outside, even right outside he window, battery life dwindles, picture is blurry. Other issues that have come up with them: camera will only turn left, camera stopped giving us sound, randomly shut off at night when plugged in Photo: baby crying, sound up, no lights no sound coming out at all.

Bad range

Cefty1210 - 2 months ago
This has a horrible range. From only two rooms over the connection constantly goes in and out making it difficult to listen for the baby and sleep. I paid much less for my daughters Motorola and have had no issues with the range with that. Will be returning this.

Worked great at first but eventually wouldn't hold charge and kept losing signal. Not reliable when always dying after couple hours. Not real user friendly when it needs plugged in every night because even though it'd fully charge it won't last 7 hours

Amy - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
After seeing the great reviews I was surprised to find this monitor to be incredibly basic and annoying. There are barely any settings. There are bright lights on the front and there is no way to turn them off. I had to put it in a drawer to sleep at night. Even on the lowest setting the sound machine in my baby’s room (which is nowhere near the camera) comes through very loud and muddies the sounds of my baby. The quality of the camera is terrible, it reminds me of videos I would take on a flip phone in the early 2000s. I tried a monitor from Leapfrog and have none of these issues anymore.

I received this monitor as a gift from my baby shower, and I thought it was going to work great but it's awful! it is always out of signal coverage and the camera will not always pair to the monitor making it useless basically, so disappointed that I now have to find another monitor.
A baby monitor that does exactly what it should!

Decent battery life in the handheld and signal remains connected! I had purchased a different monitor prior to this that would not stay connected more than 10 minutes. Definitely a relief to find a monitor that can actually perform.

Please save your money and frustration and don’t buy this! We have gone through 2 monitors in a year and a half because both just stopped turning on. The battery also dies very quickly. Cannot tell you how many times the battery life goes to zero immediately after unplugging it.

Great customer service!!! Had an issue with the monitor after using it for ten months. It has been bought more than a year prior as a baby shower gift so while it was out of the year warranty period they still honored it. They sent it out quickly and we are so grateful to the customer service team. We are happy with the monitor. It’s clear and works very well and has a good range on what it can see and cover.
Good product and customer service

We have relied on this monitor to check on our little ones while they sleep from the moment they moved into their own room. It functioned flawlessly for months. When the monitor unit went on the fritz suddenly one weekend, Infant Optics customer support were available almost immediately. We got quick support, and after only a couple of emails it was determined that the unit was still under warranty and that we would receive a replacement. So just know that when you buy this baby monitor you are not only getting a great device, but also excellent customer service and a great warranty in case something does go wrong.
