iBaby Monitor

• Great idea, potentially good product, no support

  2.0 out of 5 stars

  I have been searching for something like this for a decent price for a very long time. Now it is finally here!
  
  However the on ly way I can get it to work is by connecting the camera via ethernet. When I disconnect the cord as they say you should be able to do after setup the camera stops working.
  
  It does not make sense for me to run 50 feet of ethernet cable through the walls to my baby's room. The box only comes with a quick set up guide. Parts of the FAQ's on the app refer to the User Manual, which does not even exist on their website.
  
  I really do not want to return this but so far I am the second hour in to researching my network, their website, the app's FAQ's, and the tiny quick start guide with no effective troubleshooting, and non-existant "help" forums anywhere on google.
  
  I believe I have intermediate computer and networking knowledge and I have never run into a road block like this before. I would not recommend this product for a non-tech savvy person until a future upgrade.
  
  The quirks definitely need to be worked out on this product. … More (Read full review)

  So as it is simply described, plug it in, set it up, plug it in wherever you want it (wirelessly).
  
  I did just that, out of box to scanning on my iphone took all but 6 minutes.
  Great infrared, motor, quiet as can be, 350 degree field of view, limitless mounting options, and quick usage from anywhere, anytime.
  
  Lots of adjustments including brightness contrast, talkback, very minimal delay, and impressive resolution.
  
  I wouldnt let another review simply based on network connection affect your purchase, as I had a question, called them, and was called back with a voicemail (as I missed it) instructing me of another feature I wasnt sure how to operate.
  
  Lots of versatility, and my girlfriend and I both can now keep tabs both audio and visual, on our rampant little puppy. I can even yell at her through the stereo with the audio talkback jack hooked in.
  
  Only detractor for me is the giant baby face and pink coloring of the application icon. =)
  
  Better than every other product that tries to deliver the same … More (Read full review)

  5.0 out of 5 stars

  I traveled frequently, so I can not see my children and my wife. I bought a ibaby monitor, so I can easily watch my lovely childr en and my wife. Whenever I have free time and wifi, I just love to click the apps on my iphone, so I can see and heart what my wife and my children are doing. No matter how far away I am from them, I can always feel we are next to each other. … More (Read full review)

• Terrible monitor don't do it

  1.0 out of 5 stars

  I was really excited to get this monitor but it has been a total nightmare!! My babies nursery is on the opposite side of the hous e so it was hard to put her in there in the first place this monitor was no help, I cannot hear anything even with the volume on high and an additional speaker plugged in on high, it also has an alarm feature that you cannot put on vibrate or change sounds. The best part of this alarm is that even on the lowest level it will go off and not stop till you hit your screen even better it goes off and you can see your child but not actually hear if they are crying or just making small noises. Never mind that if you have a baby/ child that moves at all in their sleep the minute they move alarm, then you finally do not se d push notifications and turn off alarm that way and you have no idea how baby is doing without constantly checking in. Lastly the connection gets dropped a lot as well even though the package says you can check anywhere I do not find this to be true at all!! I have even exchanged it thought maybe I got a bad monitor the one is exactly the same...so many better monitors out there!, … More (Read full review)

• Best investment I ever made

  5.0 out of 5 stars

  I love this product. I'm actually not using it as a baby monitoring product, but rather in my office so that I can at anytime see what is going there.
  
  The alarm feature is really useful, because I've pointed it directly towards the front door, so that I can get an alarm if ever someone tries to come in after hours.
  
  The setup was particularly easy as it was really just a plug and play process.

• Very Disappointed

  1.0 out of 5 stars

  My husband and I bought the iBaby specifically to be used with our iPad. Our iPhone hooked up without any problems but after sever al days of emailing tech support and spending an hour on the phone with no conclusion about why it wouldn't connect to the iPad, we decided to return it while we were still within the return policy. We were told by iBaby Labs that it was "possibly" an app bug and will take a few weeks to try and determine a solution to the problem. A very frustrating process!!! … More (Read full review)
