For $10 a month, you can store for 30 days, and for $30 a month, you can get unlimited storage. After the first year, the basic subscription is $5 a month. One year of Nanit Insights is included with the Nanit Plus and Nanit Pro cameras, but it only includes two days of data - which is enough for me. If you want more details and guidance on your child's sleep, a Nanit Insights subscription lets you track your kid's sleep patterns and stores videos for more than two days, along with other monitoring tools. Nanit also has an Amazon Alexa skill, so I can use voice commands to control the baby monitor. When I open the app, the first thing I see is how long my baby has been sleeping or when he woke up.

The app is easy to use and immediately displays what I am interested in.

Play back clips from motion-triggered alerts.

Enable Night Mode to darken my phone screen but still keep an eye on my baby without the screen locking.

Control the night light and its brightness.

Soothe him back to sleep with the camera's two-way audio.

See a live view of any activity and zoom in for a closer look.
