About Baby Monitor: Private Cam
Baby Cam turns two phones into a private video baby monitor in under a minute. No camera to buy, no account to create, and your baby's video never leaves your home.
Place one phone in the nursery, keep the other with you, and you get live video, live audio and cry alerts straight over your home WiFi. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored on a server, and nobody but you can watch.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Place one phone near the crib as the Camera.
2. Open the app on your phone as the Parent unit.
3. They connect directly over your home WiFi. That's it.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Most baby monitor apps stream your nursery through servers in the cloud. Baby Cam connects your two phones directly, peer to peer, over your own WiFi network. The video and audio stream never touches the internet, never reaches a server, and cannot be seen by anyone but you.
- No account, no registration
- No cloud, no servers
- Works even when your internet is down. Your WiFi router is enough.
INCLUDED FOR FREE
- Live video and audio with a night friendly dark interface
- Cry and sound alerts based on how loud the room gets, with adjustable sensitivity
- Picture in picture while you use other apps
- Sound only mode, flashlight and front or back camera switch
BABY CAM PRO
- Motion detection alerts
- Night mode for a brighter picture in a dark room
- Photo and video capture, saved only to your device
- More than one viewer on the same network, so both parents can watch
- Cast the live view to your TV
REUSE THE PHONE IN YOUR DRAWER
That old phone in your drawer just became a baby monitor. Any Android phone or tablet can be the camera unit, and it does not need a SIM card.
TIPS FOR A CALM NIGHT
- Keep the camera phone plugged into a charger. Streaming video all night uses a lot of battery.
- Place the camera phone a safe distance from the crib, out of your baby's reach, with the lens pointed at the mattress.
- Turn up the sound sensitivity if your nursery is quiet, or lower it if a fan or white noise machine triggers alerts.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does Baby Cam work without internet?
Yes. Baby Cam does not need an internet connection. Both phones only need to be on the same WiFi network, which your router provides even when the internet is down.
Do I need two phones?
Yes. One phone is the camera in the nursery and the other is the parent unit. Many parents use an old phone they no longer carry as the camera.
Can I watch from outside the house?
No. Baby Cam is a local baby monitor. Both phones must be on the same WiFi, which is exactly why your video never leaves your home.
Is my baby's video recorded or uploaded?
Never uploaded. With Pro you can save photos and clips, and they stay only on your own device.
Does it drain the battery?
Live video uses power, so keep the camera phone charging overnight. The parent phone can run the view in picture in picture while you use other apps.
