BercioThe baby monitor that fits in your phones
One phone watches over the nursery, the other goes with you. Live video and sound, alerts when your baby cries, moves or makes noise, with no account and nothing recorded.
End-to-end encrypted · No account · Never recorded
How does it work?
The same app on both phones: one in Baby Mode, the other in Parent Mode.
- 1 / 3
One phone in the nursery
Open Bercio in Baby Mode on a phone placed more than a metre from the crib, camera facing your baby, plugged in.
- 2 / 3
Pair your phone
On yours, choose Parent Mode, then enter the 6-digit code or scan the QR code shown on the baby device.
- 3 / 3
Keep watch from anywhere
Live video and sound, over Wi-Fi or mobile data, and an alert as soon as your baby cries, moves or makes noise.
An old phone can serve as the baby device: Android 7 or iOS 15 is all it takes.
Everything for calm nights
Detection runs on the baby device, even offline.
Crying recognised
A sound recognition model tells crying from babbling and laughter. “Baby is crying!” is never mistaken for a mere noise.
Movement and noise
Draw the crib area: lasting movement alerts you, a startle does not. The room's background noise is learned to avoid false alarms.
Talk to your baby
Hold “Talk”: your voice comes out of the baby device's speaker, like a walkie-talkie.
Soothing sounds
Rain, waves, fire, white noise, a lullaby or a heartbeat, started from your phone, with a sleep timer that fades the sound out gently.
Night journal
Crying, movement, noise and outages, night by night, over the last 14 nights. A summary to copy when you talk to your paediatrician.
Several rooms
Up to 4 baby devices followed from the same phone, one tab per room. Several parents can watch at the same time.
Snapshots
Capture your sleeping baby, then share the photo or save it to your gallery.
Screen off on Android
The parent device keeps watch with the screen off and warns you if the link drops or the baby device's battery runs low.
In the nursery, the screen stays dark and “Black screen” turns it off at once, so it never lights up the room.
What happens in the nursery stays between your phones
Video and sound go straight from one phone to the other, encrypted, never recorded.
- No account: no name, no email address.
- End-to-end encrypted between the devices you paired: even when a relay is needed, it can neither see nor hear.
- Analysed on the baby device: only crying, noise or movement scores reach your phone, never the audio.
- Kept at home: night journal, settings and photos stay on your phones.
Bercio is funded by a Google AdMob ad banner, on the parent screens only, never on the baby device.
A helper, not a medical device
Bercio does not monitor breathing or heart rate and does not prevent sudden infant death. An alert can be missed or delayed (network, battery, notifications): the app never replaces adult supervision or safe sleep guidelines.
