Infant Optics DXR 8 and Infant Optics DXR 8 Pro are some of the highest-rated non-wifi baby monitors and many parents wonder if Infant Optics DXR 8 can connect to phone. In this blog post, I explain whether it has an app and whether it can relay images and videos to your smartphone.

A baby monitor that uses your phone as a display utilizes wifi technology, either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz technology to relay signals from the baby monitor camera to your phone. The benefit of this is that you can check in on your baby without being in the same room and also receive notifications if there is any activity in the camera’s field of view.

Does Infant Optics DXR 8 Connect to Phone

Infant Optics DXR 8 is a non-wifi baby monitor that uses FHSS technology that sends images and video to the display screen. The DXR 8 does not have an app, so it cannot connect to your phone. While Frequency Hoping Spread Spectrum is a secure non-wifi connected technology, it also uses 2.4 GHz frequency in a local network. It transmits signals to a maximum of 1000 ft and unlike wifi baby monitors that have unlimited range, Infant Optics’ range is limited and does not relay any signals if you are further than 1000 ft.

Which Baby Monitors connect to phone?

Wifi baby monitors come with a phone app that utilizes your phone screen as the display but those monitors that do not connect to phone such as Infant Optics has a dedicated large screen. The latest DXR 8 Pro has a 5-inch screen that’s a bit bigger than iPhone 11’s screen.
