The world of parenting is just a little easier, just a little more reassuring with Munchkin Monitor, which turns two or more Android devices into a single baby monitor. Easy to setup, very reliable, & with unrestricted range via any network connected to the internet (WiFi/3G/LTE)! You can have peace of mind knowing that you'll be alerted instantly if there's noise or after 30 seconds if monitoring somehow fails. Plus photo/video & sound transmission on request.
HOW IT WORKS
All you need is internet access. The app keeps a constant connection open at all times during monitoring to ensure reliable alarm notifications. Unlike other apps, does not use unreliable phone calls or text messages for alarm notifications (eg. reception loss triggers no alarm). You will never have to wonder if the app is working or not - one glance at your Parent Station device shows current noise levels and let's you take a live photo from the Munchkin Station camera - Anywhere, Anytime.

* Please ensure device has an appropriate data plan when not using WiFi. Carrier charges may apply.
** Many Android devices disable WiFi (but not 3G) when the screen is off. Some have an option to disable this functionality. The Munchkin Station will keep the screen ON by default to prevent connection loss.
*** We will keep the app free for basic usage, but it costs money to run the servers which power the app and as the user base grows we may have to introduce data limits and a small fee for some features or for more frequent usage.
For the time being, there are absolutely no ads or locked features, we hope you find the app useful and share it with friends and family!
