Reviews for iBaby Monitor

Like you're reading a lot...stopped working reliably with ios6. Until this is fixed, it is worthless as a video baby monitor. Once (if?) the kinks are worked out, it will be back to being a useful app worth perhaps 3 or 4 stars.

Everything was working fine until the update.

What fix is apple proposing and what is its ETA.

Baby monitor now freezes after about 20 seconds, if that, so must close the app and reopen. Half the time is won't open until trying twice. This won't work for my 6 month old!!! A baby monitor needs to be working for more than just 20 second at at a time, or what is the purpose? Please fix this to align with the recent update...fast!!!

I've had the iBaby for about 6 months and it has worked great. Since the iOS upgrade the app freezes the screen after just a few minutes of having the app running. It also frequently crashes. Hopefully this will be fixed with an update soon.

Since iOS 6, the app no longer opens. It immediately crashes. Not good....please fix quickly!

Really wanted it to be good, but I could never get it to be viewed on the Internet.
Worked ok as long as I was within range of my Wi-Fi.
In all fairness, it may have been that I could not get my AT&T router set up properly, but that is why I have Mac stuff, so that I don't have to be doing the things that PC folks have to do........, tinker with the darn thing.
I doubt that Mr Jobs would have approved this thing.

I was looking at this camera for quite a while because the product description seemed perfect. At the store, they had three on hand, but they all seemed like they were opened and returned. I really don't like buying returned items and despite the negative reviews of this camera I decided to give it a chance.
I bought this camera thinking that since both my husband and I are techy, we wouldn't have a problem installing it. Well we did. We followed the 15 pages exactly and after 1 hour of our system trying to find the camera we gave up and returned it to the store.
Bottom line... don't waste your time with this product. There are other products out there that can be hooked up via IP address and they have their own monitor, so you can choose to use the iphone, Ipad or monitor.

I hated last update...but this one,v1.8.1 is great!
Seems all the new bugs are fixed. Pls let me help you to test before next update if you can not ensure every changes in the right way. I was yelled by my wife in last month for the buffering issue!

My husband and I bought this with our eyes open, considering the negative reviews about connectivity issues, app problems, etc. We thought we'd keep it for a few days, test it out on the cats in advance of the baby, and make a decision about whether to keep it. Well, it won't take a few days to return this to the Apple store - we're returning it after one day. To be fair, the camera itself is really good, but the app is terrible - the "easy" set up, even on our home wifi network, took 10 minutes because the app couldn't find the camera, despite us following all the directions. And figuring out how to view on 3G? Forget it. Even after adjusting our router settings, it still didn't work. After researching a lot of the app-based monitors, I found they all have the same issues identified by users: good camera, wonky app, horrible/non-existent instructions for viewing on 3G network, and hit-or-miss alert systems.

I liken this product, and all other app-based monitor systems, as the first model year of a car - don't buy it until they have all the bugs figured out. Wait for the second generation! I guess we'll have to use the "old fashioned" monitors until then (even though some of them look pretty cool - looking forward to trying them out).
