Best Baby Monitor
Need an extra set of eyes to help you keep an eye on your baby? Do you use Apple products? If yes, then you’re in luck. The “Best Baby Monitor” app will help you turn your two favorite apple devices into functional baby monitors! Using it is simple: just download the app to two of your Apple devices, leave one of the devices in your baby’s room with the app running (point the camera towards your baby if you’d like a video feed), and voila!
You’ll be able to take your other device and monitor your baby from anywhere in your home! You can set up your device to automatically call you if the baby makes any noise. To make things easier for you, you can transmit lullabies through the app to help you soothe and calm your baby.
The app uses WiFi to stay connected, but if you don’t have WiFi available, you can use Bluetooth (great for traveling). And don’t worry, multitasking is possible with this app, letting you catch up on the latest news and e-mails while you monitor your child.
