Tucky Baby Cam

A modern, secure baby monitor for iPhone and iPad. Two Apple devices, end-to-end encrypted — no account to create, no nursery cam to mount, no cloud recordings to leak.

WHY TUCKY EXISTS

We love to travel, and along the way we went through a lot of baby cam apps. Every one was the same story. Never sure whether the thing was actually working. Opening the app every few minutes to see if the waveform had moved. Restarting it dozens of times after the connection dropped. Slow, smeared video when it finally connected. None of them felt like they were designed in this decade.

Modern parents deserve modern tools. So we built one — and aimed it squarely at those four frustrations.

THREE QUIET PLACES, ONE SET OF EYES

The Live Activity holds the waveform on your Lock Screen. The Dynamic Island shrinks it to a glance when the iPhone is in your hand. A push notification fires only when Tucky hears sustained crying. Three surfaces, one rule: stay quiet until something matters.

WHAT'S IN THE APP

· HONEST STATUS. LIVE means data is flowing right now — verified, not assumed. If the connection degrades, Tucky says so instead of showing you a frozen waveform.

· RECONNECTS ITSELF. Dropped Wi-Fi, phone asleep, network switch: Tucky quietly heals the connection and picks the session back up. No restarting, no re-pairing.

· SHARP HD VIDEO. See your baby in real detail, streamed directly between your devices.

· BUILT FOR A DARK NURSERY. A dedicated low-light mode lifts the picture without turning on a single light.

· CRY DETECTION. Listens for sustained crying, not a cough or a creaking floorboard. At most one alert a minute — never a flood.

· LIVE ACTIVITY. Waveform, current state, and the nursery device's battery on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, updated silently.

· PAIR IN 30 SECONDS. Open Tucky on the second device, scan the QR with the first. No account, no email, no cloud handshake.

· LISTEN-ONLY MODE. Audio-only sessions use a fraction of the bandwidth and battery for all-night monitoring.

· THE NURSERY DEVICE STAYS IN CONTROL. Access is approved on the device in the room and expires unless renewed. Nobody watches without the nursery's say-so.

· WORKS ANYWHERE. At home, at grandma's, in a hotel. Wi-Fi or cellular.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN

We can only lose what we collect, so we collect almost nothing.

What we keep on our server: a random device ID, a public key for verification, your push token (so the Lock Screen activity can update), the last 30 minutes of audio levels (a waveform shape, not the sound), sleep state, and pairing records.

What we never have: no name, no email, no Apple ID, no address, no GPS, no audio recordings, no video recordings, no analytics SDKs, no advertising IDs, no third-party trackers.

Audio and video stream peer-to-peer over WebRTC, end-to-end encrypted. Every request is signed by a key that lives in your device's Secure Enclave — not even we can impersonate your devices.

REQUIREMENTS

iOS 17 / iPadOS 17 or newer on both devices. Dynamic Island features need an iPhone 14 Pro or newer; everything else works the same on every supported device.

IMPORTANT

Tucky is a consumer baby monitor, not a medical device. It is not a substitute for adult supervision. Stay close enough that you can respond in person.

From Rogier, a parent from the Netherlands. The name comes from "tukkie" — Dutch for a quick nap.
