  • A lot of names but no way to change list

    I really enjoy the abundance of names on this app and the ease with which you can go through them. You can get through hundreds of names really quickly, but if you make a mistake there is no way to go back and change it on your list. This is frustrating because you can’t add of delete a name from your list once it’s on there. Other than that, it’s pretty useful and easy to use.

  • A few changes could go a long way

    I wish you could move a name that you accidentally “liked” or changed your mind on (or vice versa). It also doesn’t suggest names based on what you have liked in the past. Why does it need to keep sending names of different spellings? Especially when I say no to the untraditional spelling every time

  • Okay to make a list... then....

    Like the swiping to make list and that there is some info when scrolling through the names while creating the list. But once the list is made your limited to with adding or subtracting from favorites list. Can’t click on name to get more info or delete it from the list all together.
  • Like it but how do I delete a mistake

    My husband and I are using this app and we like it. Really we do... but it’s annoying cause we’ve both favorited things or liked things the we now have decided nah too and can’t find a way to REMOVE it from our lists. Maybe we are just dumb and are missing the obvious but there’s no tap and hold. No swipe to the left. No edit and then hit a minus. Nothing. I want a delete!

  • Good concept that needs work

    Great idea, but not yet a home run. There’s no way to undo a mistake of disliking a name. You’re looking at so many names at once. Mistakes are bound to happen. Also, if you’re going to mix in made up names, you should allow folks to filter those out. Most of them are alternative spellings or just ridiculous. The various spellings for a name should be on one card. I don’t want to waste time saying no twenty times to the same name just because the letters have been tinkered with. I’m a little embarrassed I sent this to my husband now. It can be hard to find a way for couples to connect on names, so sending a mediocre app as a way of conjuring interest might backfire if your partner feels like they’re wasting their time trudging through card upon card of nonsense.

  • If you”re looking for something unique..

    In my opinion, some of these name suggestions are just a little too creative or off the wall. No one should be naming their child “Little” or “Whisper”. Don’t get me wrong, there are a few that were brought up My husband and I hadn’t thought of that we liked. But many of them seem to be inspired by a can of alphabet soup.

  • Terrible function and male/female names mixed

    Waste of time. No editing likes once liked. Not productive at all. Needs a few more features to be workable. The last ten male names I’ve scrolled through include “Aria, Ella, and other clearly female names. Not a big deal, just a waste of time if you’re actually trying to name a child. Not recommended, just use Google.

  • Needs delete option!

    Nice way to discover new names, but I do have one huge complaint! The app lets you “like” names, then saves your likes to a list. You can even star some as “favorites”. The problem is that now that I want to narrow down my list and have changed my mind on a few names, the app won’t let me delete any names from my list!! I want them OFF the list, but there is literally no way to delete once they have been added. :( please update this and add as a new feature!

  • Three

    I was very excited to use this app, but it’s constantly freezing and it will repeat the same 10 names in a row every few that I go through. It repeats Carter, Ava, Olivia, Oliver, etc. Extremely frustrating. I have to restart the app every time. Also, my husband is linked to my profile on the app & most times it’s frozen and won’t show our choices we have in common, same with the names I have chosen already. If there’s another baby names app out there I will try it.

  • Made up names and repeats

    This app is a crappier version of another baby name app where you swipe and can also link up with your partner. 90% of the names sound made up or are “YouNeek” spellings of regular names. It also repeats names you’ve said no too many times, usually within a few swipes! I said no to Olivia and Ava 3 times in less than 5 minutes. Not loving the name suggestions or variety. The app itself works well. No crashing and it saves my like/dislike lists, although it doesn’t seem to base suggestions off of them.
