Helpful, missing some features

This app is great for keeping track of baby’s eating, sleeping, diapering etc.

Flaws- I’d like to see the option to back start the sleep timer. There is the option to start the timer NOW, and another option to manually enter a time, but no back timing, so if I forget to set the timer as soon as baby falls asleep, then I have to wait until she wakes up to record.
Diapering does not offer elimination communication entries- it assumes all pees and poos are in diaper, but I’d love to be able to keep track of pee or poop in potty vs diaper.

All in all, great app and very useful! Needs just a little more flexibility in the data entry aspect.

Great Concept, But Really Buggy

This app is fantastic and a great concept, but it’s incredibly buggy. I have experienced extremely slow loading times, only to be logged out of the app when it finally does load & it has lately been crashing every time I open it. So now I’m on the hunt for an alternative that isn’t such a bother unless these issues get fixed.

Used to be good

I don’t know what happened, but this app used to be fantastic. I loved being able to track with a click of a button (especially sleep!) but ever since yesterday afternoon it’s been garbage. First it logged me out with no warning, then when I finally got logged back in it hadn’t saved my profile, so none of my months of data was there! I deleted and reinstalled the app (and waited over 12 hours..) and it shows my info again at least, but now I can’t log sleep! It keeps showing that there’s sleep being tracked, but when I click “stop and add” it just jumps to a different number of hours, without actually stopping the timer. So I can’t restart the sleep timer/tracker to actually track my baby’s sleep (oh, and the reset button does nothing as well). I’m so frustrated and disappointed at this point. I had thought, with how well known The Sleep Lady is, that this would be a good app but don’t waste your time. I sure won’t be anymore, nor will I be supporting or trusting any of her other products.

Like the concept, but...

I lo e the concept and layout of this app. It has everything I need to keep track of baby’s day. However, this app keeps kicking me out when i try to look at any daily or weekly charts for sleeping. i have to uninstall and reinstall EVERY TIME! It very frustrating and not helpful at all. I’ve tried getting in touch with support and no one has gotten back to me.

Helpful resource for moms!

I have loved using this app. I like knowing about what the recommended sleep schedules are, development stuff etc. Being able to keep track of things like diapers and body temp keep us organized.

Updated review! Works better now!

Update on my previous review- I got a new wireless router which fixed the crashing issue with this and the monitor app. Now I'm just using the monitor app but they are the same except this one doesn't connect to the monitor.

I really like this app. 4 stars instead of 5 is because I think this should be a simpler app than the monitor app and shouldn't have been affected so severely by my old wireless router. I turned the wireless off on the phone when the old router was acting up, and this app still didn't work.
