I'd just do something like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007NG5UEU/ref=twister_B00Q65V72S?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
or this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017UIR9F8/ref=twister_B0194W6U8A?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I'm not sure what benefits having iPhone capabilities would add? You planning on heading to the bar after bedtime?

Ya no reason to spend that much on a damn monitor. The cheap ones work just fine. And lol at needed to sync up to your phone. Trust me you will hear your kids, and getting that on your phone would probably lead to harming yourself.

Are you looking for video or just sound?
A friend gave us one for sound. It's not compatible with any other devices.

We went with the Gynoii. Think it was about $80. It doesn't have it's own dedicated remote screen/monitor, you have to connect through their app. Think it works for both Android and Apple. It has audio and it automatically switches to nightvision mode when the room is dark. You can also talk to the baby and play music through the app, and you can set up guest access for the grandparents or whomever.
I see my kid all day, I don't need to see him at night too.
We have a traditional video monitor - it's our second model overall, this one has dual cameras that go on the split-screen receiver (Summer brand). Although much better than our old model that we had for our now-6-year-old, the reception is just **** in certain parts of the house. If the kids are on the second floor and we're in the basement, there are maybe three cubic feet where we get even fairly consistent reception. If you had a ranch style house, this would likely be great.
To that end, if you're looking for a video monitor, I'd go the route of one that is compatible with the iPhone. I have heard good things about the iBaby monitor: https://ibabylabs.com/

This is the one we got as a hand me down. I believe that they have video ones too. With all of the hacking into video/monitor feeds, I don't want one. I used it for well over a year. You can change the sensitivity setting. Then this past year, I've used it as a night light only.
The parent monitor died in the first 6-8 months, but that's just due to age I think. If your baby is on the same floor as you (and you're not in a mansion) it shouldn't be a problem.
