Baby Monitor on the Go!
Baby monitors of some type are pretty common these days if you have small children in your life.
There’s an inexpensive alternative for people that have kids and are on the go over a traditional setup. It uses Android smartphones, like that old one sitting in your drawer through the Dormi app.
It’s an app that uses two Android smartphones or tablets and turns them into powerful baby monitors that work from any distance.
This setup will work with both wi-fi and cellular connections, which means it’s effective in the house or on the road.
It allows you to say things to your child remotely when your voice can help them feel better. Making sure that your devices are in good shape with power is also monitored by the app.
The basic option allows for up to 4 hours of monitoring a month and it’s free or for a one time fee, you can get lifetime usage that also unlimited.
Start looking for those old Android devices so they can be put back to use by your or someone you know with small children!
