Weird iPhone question
 
Has anybody ever tried to get 2 iPhones to talk to each other via bluetooth as camera and monitor? Dad brought my 6 mo old neice over to watch for a little while while my Sister and her husband had some sort of thing to deal with last week and discovered that since she is still in a rear facing car seat, he couldn't keep an eye on her with the convex mirror in the overhead console as he brought her home in his new Caravan. What he is wanting to do now for the next time he has her in the van, but nobody else with them, he wants to somehow have his old iPhone (a 5 or 6, I think) to talk with the phone Mom had (it's newer, but I can't remember which it is) then transmit video like facetime, put his phone on the back seat somehow, then watchnit through Mom's while that is on the dash.....somehow. Kinda like the GoPro Hero 2 he had and the wifi app and his old phone, but hopefully less lag.

While I cant answer your tech question, I can offer an alternative idea. Heres what we use. Cheap, simple and effective.

My brother used an app for that for his iphoen - have to ask for the name. He left his phone in a dashmount in his van when the kids were still asleep after a drive and he and his wife wanted to go inside but not wake them up (DISCLAIMER: don't worry, we are talking about Germany here, no baby was left in a hot car unattended). So, then he was able to listen and watch them with his wife's phone. Like a baby phone. Maybe you check the app store?

I never even heard of that app to be honest, although that could be what he was talking about yesterday. Then again, my brain was so fried from work last night that the seat mirror like coffeeaddict linked and MaX-D seconded barely registered with me before I read those posts this morning.......and I used to work for Toy's "R" Us and would occasionally stock the baby department:roll::ror:
