Reviews Summary

  • Not worth it to me

    I tried this app for a month because I wanted to have my baby (and ourselves) sleep better. There were a few things I didn’t like:

    Didn’t adjust wake time lengths
    Couldn’t pause nap
    The predicted bedtime wasn’t adjusted after a while, even though baby slept 2 hours earlier every night
    Overall, it wasn’t worth the money spent on the subscription. I’m currently using Huckleberry the free version and I prefer it over this one.
  • Constantly demanding feedback

    Every time you read something, add something or change something, you are prompted to provide feedback and are not able to continue using the app until you do so. For me, this makes it unusable. I paid to use the app, the service is not contingent on me providing constant annoying feedback
  • Device not supported

    In the specs it says my iPhone is supported (iPhone 13 pro max) however when I open my app it says device not supported
  • Impressive!

    I recently downloaded the Pampers Baby Sleep Training app and I have been so impressed with how it has helped my little one (and me!) get a better night's sleep.

    One of the things I love about this app is that it is from Pampers, a trusted brand in baby care. I know I can trust the advice and guidance provided in the app. It provides a personalized sleep schedule for my baby based on their age and individual sleep needs.

    Another thing I love about this app is its user-friendly interface. It's easy to use and navigate, and it even has a sleep diary feature where I can track my baby's sleep and see how they are progressing over time.

    One thing that sets this app apart from other baby sleep apps is its focus on helping parents establish healthy sleep habits in their baby. It has a section with helpful tips and techniques for doing so.

    Overall, I highly recommend the Pampers Baby Sleep Training app to any parent who is struggling to get their little one to sleep through the night. It has been a lifesaver for me and I know it can help other parents too.
  • Not Worth the Money

    I did the 7-day free trial. It did nothing more than math (this is the average awake time between naps, etc), which the free apps do just fine. It also made me go through a sign up every time I opened it, which was aggravating.
  • Awesome idea to help with sleep

    I love this idea for an app. It’s matching your actual specific needs to the right approach for helping baby to sleep.
    The assessment is very thorough and the plan and a schedule we got were spot on. Greta gift idea…
  • 1 week in and already working!

    Loved how easy it is to follow along and that the app gives you time to get ready for sleep training vs jumping straight in. I noticed huge sleep improvements in just a few days following the schedule and now 1 week into sleep training and already my baby is sleeping through! Highly recommend!
  • Slow, repetitive

    While the principles in this app are great and helpful, the app itself is very slow. It takes a long time to update sleep and access the timer. There’s is also no option to record a wake up during a sleep, so you have to formally stop the sleep and start a new sleep to access the timer. The lessons are overly repetitive and presented as info-bites rather than in-depth instruction. A module format would work better. The user is also prompted to rate each “lesson,” which is both annoying and makes this feel like a beta version of the app. Lastly, the cost is far more than equally good information available for free online and the timer on your phone or in a much cheaper course by lots of other creators. Overall, I cannot recommend.

    Developer Response

    We appreciate you sharing this feedback. I'm sorry you felt the app wasn't offering the right balance of quality vs value - did you know that you can access a pediatric sleep consultant from within the app as part of the subscription price? We are constantly updating and improving the daily classes and take your input to heart around modules and speed. Thanks again!
  • Not helpful

    This app is so great in theory, but not helpful in practice. I downloaded it (and paid for an expensive three-month subscription), only to have it spend weeks teaching me the importance of sleep training. It didn’t give any real guidance on the sleep training itself. Just wasted weeks trying to convince me to do it. (I don’t need convincing—that’s why I got the app. I’m already trying to do it.) All this app really does is track your child’s sleep and offer a few token tips. I don’t need to spend a bunch of money to be told to lay my child down drowsy-but-awake in a dark room with a comfortable temperature. If you’re desperately hoping to help your child fall asleep independently or stay asleep longer, this won’t help. You’re better off googling a few tips and tracking their sleep with a free app.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We love getting feedback from our users as it helps us make the product better for everyone. I'm sorry you felt the journey to sleep training took too long. Based on our experience, you can increase the success of sleep training by upwards of 70% when you have the right sleep foundation in place. That's why we start by focussing on the sleep schedule and the sleep environment before teaching baby to fall asleep independently. When users complete all of the tasks each day you typically start sleep training in around 7-days.
  • Super helpful!

    I’m Impressed with how accurate the sleep schedule is. The sleep training content is really good and thorough, but really, the schedule has been the most helpful part of the app, the way it updates, and helps us plan a day ahead. Finally caught up on my sleep!
