Who has access to Split Screen?
Users with more than one camera, regardless of their subscription type (free/none, Basic, Premium, Ultimate) or account type (Owner/Admin/Viewer), will be able to use the Split Screen.
The user permissions for the monitor(s) (such as audio and Breathing Motion Monitoring) are based on the parenting team's permissions currently available today.
What are the requirements to use Split Screen?
Be sure you have the latest version of the Nanit app installed on your mobile device:
- Android: Nanit app version 3.5.4 or later
- iOS: Nanit app version 3.7.3 or later
We also recommend that your mobile device meets the following requirements:
- Android 8+ with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

How do you change the camera stream on Split Screen view?
Android:

Can I initiate and monitor Breathing Motion Monitoring from Split Screen view?
No, at this time, Breathing Motion Monitoring can only be initiated and monitored from the single camera view.
How do I know if my feed isn’t connected to the Split Screen view?
If you are on an Android device, you may see your camera still trying to load on one of your streams.
If you are on an iOS device, you may see “Feed not available” on one of your streams.
If you experience either, you will need to go back to the single camera view to see what the error is. Please refer to this article if you are unable to see your stream and need to troubleshoot further: How do I improve my Nanit’s connection?
