If you use a white noise app

[cricketwife]

Dumb question -- I'm new to the iPhone world and just downloaded a white noise app because we are leaving today to spend Christmas at my mom's.  We're flying so I'm trying to travel as light as possible with an 11 mo old.  But if I were to use the app , it would mean I'd have to leave my phone with DS all night , right?  I don't really want to do that. I'd rather bring his own noise machine but I'm just wondering if im missing something here.

We have a small travel one from buy buy baby.

I only use the white noise app in the car.

I Play it on the iPad and use my phone fa night. In your situation I would bring a different one because I'm not giving
My phone up all night

Yeah ,I'll just bring his. When we bought it , we specifically bought a portable one for travel so it's not that big.

We use our ipad for white noise, and then use a baby monitor app for a monitor through the ipad to my iphone.

Ditto the iPad app for travel.

We use the iPad or my old iPod (dd's white noise machine at home) but it never occurred to me to install a monitor app for travel. GENIUS. Thanks!

I have a spotify subscription ($10/month, gets you music on your phone and no ads) and a playlist of nature white noise songs. Be sure to download the playlist for offline playback -- you don't want a flaky internet connection ruining sleep!

Yeah I use my phone app on the go but at night use it on the ipad even though she is right next to me in rock n play. I end up using my phone for the flashlight app for MOTN feedings.

I use my iPad as white noise when we travel. I left it at home once and was stuck without my phone during every nap and all night. Never again.

So mmm's solution is that I NEED an iPhone and an iPad. Telling DH now :-)

What's this app? Is it a video one?

We use Cloud Baby Monitor. If the devices you are using have cameras you can see video. We use old iPhones and iPads for monitoring and white noise.

We use simply noise, once you have the app you don't need the Internet.

We have Motorola video monitor, would it work with my iPhone?

I have no idea. I have only ever used the app I mentioned above. We put an iphone with a camera in the room and then follow along with the ipad.
