Lumixi turns two Android phones into a private video baby monitor. Old phone = Camera; daily phone = parent Monitor. Pair by QR or short code—no account or ads. Encrypted video/audio stream between devices. When nobody watches, Camera sends nothing. Premium covers two Monitor seats; one camera active at a time. Camera is free. Monitor needs Lumixi Premium (7-day Google Play trial if eligible). Android only—no iPhone. Limits: not medical, not an alarm, and night mode is not infrared.

Could you build this?
Partial While basic UI is simple, reliable low-latency peer-to-peer video/audio streaming across varying network topographies with background audio persistence requires complex WebRTC and mobile media handling.
What it would actually take: Built with Kotlin/Android Jetpack utilizing WebRTC or WebSockets with STUN/TURN traversal servers for direct device-to-device streaming. The hard parts include battery-optimized background audio streaming, low-light image processing/night vision tuning, and noise-floor calibration for baby cry detection while keeping Android services alive without getting killed by OS power managers.
