Baby Monitor update version 3.2

Full screen video

Completely redesigned video mode screen to support a full sized viewer.
The system has been internally improved.

Tethering (use your device as a WiFi AP)

You have no WiFi and you need to connect both devices ? Bluetooth range is not enough ?
No problem !

If one of your devices supports acting as a WiFi hotspot, since this version you'll be able to connect both devices using it !

BE CAREFUL: Tethering can increase the data traffic to internet and can represent a possible extra cost in your bill.

Switch between night and day mode automatically

Disabled by default.

The BabyMonitor can change to a darker design under low light conditions or to the regular design when the light comes back.

Select maximum time for video/sound retransmission

You can select the extended sound transmission time after the sound drops below the set level.
Continuous monitoring mode option available.

The video mode will end automatically (energy saving) after 2 minutes. Now you can change this limit.

Baby Monitor update version 3.1.2

Front camera as video source (Android 2.3 and above)

Now you can use any camera from your device to watch your baby.
Under video mode, if there is secondary camera available you'll see a new button.

Video image rotation

Not all devices are equal. Some of you reported that you see the video image rotated.
Now under video mode you'll see a new button that allows you to rotate the image independently of the device you are using.

Bigger video viewer

Baby's side ambient temperature (if the device has ambient temperature sensor)

Only available for the latest devices (hope that during next months there will be more and more) that include ambient temperature sensor.

The temperature may vary if the device is charging.

With this feature you will see the Baby's room ambient temperature at the parent's side!

Fully tested on Galaxy S4
