i love the design, but it needs a lot of work.

truly a great app design. however, the predictions can be incredibly off creating nap times that i didn’t log so it leads to overlapping naps that won’t delete. also, the ios 18 update completely ruined the cry detector. it does not detect cries anymore. in addition to that, if your child falls asleep at (for example) 9pm the night before, and wakes up at 5:30am, but you forget to log it — the app will not let you log it. it assumes you mean the sleep started in the AM, not the PM, and the time scroll will not let you select PM. the app can be so incredibly frustrating when you have a baby just trying to log her sleep and more then half the time the app crashes out and you have to restart it. like i said, great design though! you can add nightly wake ups, the duration of those nightly wake ups (both without ruining the night sleep timer), and the predictions were accurate when the app didn’t default add naps i didn’t log. the cry detector was great too, (key word: WAS. the iOS 18 update ruined it) and even without the premium features, you could listen back to the cries from previous days.

this app has potential to be incredible. it needs a TON of fixes, hence why i deleted it. but, if those errors were fixed, the app would be one of the best kid/baby sleep apps out there!

Too Early

I love the design of this app. It has all sorts of promise. But it’s not there yet. Caretaker sharing is broken. Push notification messaging doesn’t align with what’s happening in the app (prompting you to put your kid asleep when they’ve been asleep for an hour, etc). As a long-time Sleep Cycle user, I look forward to revisiting when it’s more polished.
