West Palm Beach, Fla. (PRWEB) October 28, 2014 -- WiFi Baby recently announced the release of their WiFi Baby iOS app, which allows parents to monitor their child at home or securely check in from anywhere on an iPhone or iPad. Available for free, the full-featured iOS baby monitor app is the latest offering from WiFi Baby, which is a leader in wireless network-enabled baby monitors. The new WiFi Baby iOS app offers superior video quality, background audio, auto-mute and noise level notifications while multitasking. The WiFi Baby app pairs with the top-reviewed WiFi Baby video monitor, a wireless camera that syncs to a home WiFi network, offers scheduled recording and is accessible with password-protection both at home and remotely. The most recent version – WiFi Baby 3 – was released in March, 2014.

“When designing our app, flexibility for parents was key,” said WiFi Baby CEO Stefanie Fox. “Unlike traditional monitors, you don’t have to carry around and keep track of yet another device. More importantly, we wanted our customers to have full use of their iPhone or iPad while still monitoring their child. The app supports background audio and notification, so you can hear and also receive noise level alerts while using other apps.”

Developed for the growing family, the app supports up to four WiFi Baby cameras on one screen with simultaneous video, audio and notifications. Parents also have peace of mind with the ability to check in from anywhere and the option for scheduled recording.

“Stability and functionality was also vital, especially for overnight monitoring,” Fox said. “Once opened, our app overrides auto-lock so your iOS device doesn’t go to sleep when you do. The WiFi Baby iOS app and wireless camera is a complete monitoring solution for parents."

Partnered together, the WiFi Baby App and WiFi Baby monitor offer the following features:

  • iOS 7 minimum required; iOS 8+ compatible, optimized for iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus
  • Easy Home Network Setup: Scans wireless network, finds WiFi Baby camera. Enter user name and password to complete setup on home network.
