Learn how to use the uGrow Smart Baby monitor and its available features.
 

Share your baby monitor feed with family and friends

It is possible to share your baby monitor feed with your friends and family. If you are an admin, you are able to share your baby monitor.
There is only one admin per baby monitor. The admin is the user who initially sets up the baby monitor.

How to share your baby monitor feed:
  1. In the baby monitor screen, go to settings
  2. Click on share baby monitor
  3. Add new user by entering their phone number or email address
  4. Your newly added users are now able to view your baby monitor feed
Note: to add new users, please make sure they first download the uGrow Smart Baby Monitor app and create an account.
 

Use the sound sensitivity setting

If you want to receive a push notification on your phone when there is a sound coming from your baby’s room, you will need to turn this on in the uGrow app.

How to turn the sound sensitivity setting on:
  1. In the baby monitor screen, go to the bell icon
  2. Switch the sound sensitivity setting on
  3. Choose the sound level sensitivity: low or high
Note:  Both your phone and your baby monitor need to have a working connection to be able to get the push notifications. The app does not work in the background, except sound push notifications (when connected).
 

Change streaming modes on your baby monitor

Depending on your location and strength of your WiFi signal you can choose the right streaming mode. If you experience hiccups in your video and/or audio, you can switch to a lower streaming mode.

How to choose a streaming mode:
  1. In the baby monitor screen, go to the bottom left of the live baby monitor stream
  2. Click on the [HD] icon, and keep below guidelines in mind
    • High network speed: HD mode
