Hi,

I've just used it for the first time with mixed success. The video link stopped fairly quickly, before I was off the drive so I than had to rely on photos. This seemed ok as they just showed my dog sleeping, but when he woke I saw one picture of him standing and an alert saying he was being noisy...but I don't seem to be able to listen to the noise he is making...am I right?

I then took another snap and thought I could see him lying under a cushion, but kept getting alerts to say that he was being noisy. When I return home half an hour after seeing him standing in the crate I found him out of the crate and running round the house.

Could you advise please?

Thank you.

So you need TWO iPhones for it to work? I should butt out of this really as I am probly sounding very FICK about it all! Where's Eileen I need a ficko mate for support!

I think you leave the ipad at home 'looking' at him and use the iphone to watch him, I think.
Eileen is in Dublin, remember .... she was packing

Hi

You should be able to hear the noises. From what you're describing, in seems like there is low microphone sensitivity set. You can adjust the sensitivity on the settings of dog station (small icon on the top right)

If the screen changes and no sound are actually transferred, it could mean that the dog station was triggered by some random noise for example from outside. Try to experiment with microphone sensitivity a little bit and you should be able to find the ideal settings

You need two devices (it doesn't matter if it's an iPhone or iPad or iPod touch) - one stays at home with your dog and the other one is the one you have with you

Thank you. I will give it a go again. I leave the radio on for the dogs and that seemed to being picked up as well as the monitor was saying the dog was being noisy even when the picture showed him lying down chewing his kong.

Could you not achieve the same using Facetime which is free?

I chat with family all over the world for free and it's great to see them too.

Just seen this...

Anytime Eileen. Credit where it's due I say!

I'm liking the idea of this! I may try it tomorrow. Belle has been getting the blame for things only to find out its been Mika. I'd love to catch him in the act
I was blaming belle for ripping up balls of wool only to catch Mika doing it today.

TappyTaps have you got an Android version?
