Frequent connection issues
Avoid. Frequent connection issues. Unclear in app what/where the problem is as far as which device has the problem. Weird when both are on the same WiFi network.
Then app crashes/unable to load issues fairly often as well. Occasionally have to uninstall and redownload to get back into the app. Conveniently app not working around time of subscription renewal so I was unable to cancel before being charged again.
Stay far away.

Not worth it
The worst baby monitor app out there to me. It does nothing but buffer on the parent end and tell you that you can’t use it over two different networks despite being on the same network. It caused my phone to completely crash and would not uninstall without me rebooting my phone.
★★★★ Babsmk 5/9/2019 v1.3
It doesn’t work
My son was screaming and the app didn’t say anything

Does not work well
The baby unit closed 4 times throughout the night. I had to go and click back into the app in my daughters room, hoping I would not wake her. This also did not allow for me to get much sleep. I highly recommend you save your money and get something better.
★★★★ Raini dot 3/19/2019 v1.3
Zero stars
Downloaded this to check it out as i needed to be able to go downstairs while baby sleeps. Tested it in front of the crib and i could hear feedback so i assumed it worked, went down to the kitchen and after a long while constantly checking the app thinking it was all fine i get a feeling and when i ran up to check my girl was screaming at the top of her lungs! I didnt hear a thing on the app, it still said she was sleeping!
★★★★ MommaTrip 9/8/2018 v1.3
Horrible
This is a horrible App. Constantly loosing connection. Both devices need to be on same network, otherwise to use need to buy additional services. I confirmed both my devices were on same WiFi and it still disconnects. When disconnects to see picture need to close out of app and reopen to work. Had to keep baby monitor on selfie mode because regular camera was just a black screen. Did not get notifications every time my baby would cry, it’s very random when it wants to work properly. Highly recommend not purchasing this app. Creates more of a headache than a convenience.
★★★★ QueenBear 11/4/2017 v1.2.1
Same as Annie Baby Monitor
Same glitches and nonstop connection issues, worked fine during trial and I still have 4 hours left. Stopped working out of nowhere and keeps offering upgrade so I can connect through a server. I’m on my WiFi network, secured and within four rooms.
★★★★ Bennnie 11/2/2017 v1.2.1
Terrible
Terrible user experience. Purchased full version but it keeps saying my account is in trial and wont let me create an account. Refund please
★★★★★ Memechr 6/1/2022 v3.3.48
Frustrating app
Every time there is an update I have issues. I try to connect the app says I am online but it won’t pair. I need this to work!!! I should have bought a home monitor system
★★★★★ joessde 4/17/2019 v1.3
Disconnected randomly and didn’t detect sound all the time
When everything is connected this works well but I kept getting notified that a device was disconnected from the network when neither were. Also video would stop working and I’d have to turn the app off on my device and restart. Also could see baby was crying but app wasn’t detecting sound randomly.
