Nice app but expensive
I tried the 7-day free trial and found the app to be interesting. The class provided some helpful insights but similar to other source less expensive, but the sleep and nap schedule was too unpredictable to make it worthwhile. Additionally, the subscription price is quite steep, so I’ve decided not to continue.

In genuine shock!
Downloaded this for the free trial thinking it probably wouldn't work but we've been very much proven wrong! Our baby was sleeping ok until 4 months when the regression etc hit us hard and we had gone back to short cycles and regular wake ups like the new born days. She's now 6 months and after 8 weeks of trying different things we thought we'd give this a go. We used the nap schedule (which is always changing throughout the day as she never sleeps as long as suggested but that's what's really good about this - it evolves with your day) and read all the info but turned off the method as we felt we knew better how long to leave it before entering the room (don't like to leave our baby to cry but sometimes could leave her longer than the method suggested as she was ok). Didn't see any change for a few days but on the 6th night she slept 11 hours and 4 nights later we're still on long streaks so it wasn't a fluke. Genuinely can't believe it - what a brilliant app and would recommend ☺️

Decent for sleep, but has clunky and unintuitive interface
This app works well for suggested nap and sleep times (I have a 6-month old on 3 naps a day). The predicted nap times are pretty spot on for my child, and we’ve been able to create a more stable routine. I like that you can also pause naps / sleeps so that you can track the length and frequency of wakings. I have not tried the sleep training features (yes, that’s what the “coaching” part refers to).
However the app as a whole is clunky and not as good as peer apps, such as Huckleberry which have a far more intuitive interface. For example, in this app you can only track apps at specific times (during the app’s recommended times) — e.g, if a nap is suggested between 12-1:30 pm, but your baby falls asleep at 1:30 pm, you cannot use the live tracker option. This is silly! You also cannot adjust the start time of naps and feeds while you are tracking. Again, this is a feature that exists in Huckleberry. The iWatch app has the ability to start and end a nap but no button to pause a nap — again, why would you not make this the same as the phone app?!
Developers: for the amount of money I’m charged for this app (more than £100 for annual subscription), I expect a much much better user face. Please do better!
