Works great, but always room to improve
It might be because I’m not the target demographic for this app (I’m not an exclusive pumper, I only pump while at work), but often this app doesn’t quite work perfectly for my needs. But it’s darn close!
I wish that the “when can I stop pumping” option was more customizable. I pump at work to feed my baby for the next day. He eats 15 oz a day and I pump 20 oz. I can enter that into the app and it’ll tell me how long I need to pump until I can exclusively switch to frozen milk. However if I only want to replace one bottle a day with frozen (and drop one pumping session at work), there is no option for this. You can’t just change the amount he eats per day, because then the app will overestimate how much milk you are saving.
I also wish I could look at each breast’s stats over time (I have one wimpy one I’m trying to boost up, but it’s hard to tell if my efforts are working). I also wish the charts went back further in time, ideally with a search or month selector function.
It would also be great if there was a way to track milk boosters, like teas, supplements, etc to see if they affect your supply. Or a way to see if time of day affects your output.
But these are just wants, the app works awesome and does exactly what it says it will. I’ve never had any issues with it.Show lessmomofone1213
Life saving app
I started pumping with my second daughter for the first time and after downloading so many apps to try to find one that worked for me, a lot of Moms in my Pumping Group kept mentioning this app and although it’s a pricey app, I pumped for 10.5 months and it was the biggest lifesaver to me and was worth every penny. It was so nice to see how long I pumped for; how much I pumped; what my averages were; what the difference was day to day and week to week and if I was trying to increase my milk I could immediately see the difference in the app VS me guessing if I was pumping more or not. This app took the guess work out of pumping, and for that, I am extremely grateful and always recommend this app to my friends/family.Show lessAMonrial
Almost perfect
This is exactly what I needed all along and I wish I had this app since day 1 of pumping. The only thing I would love to see is to also show a chart and averages for how much you are pumping each session. So for example I could see if I was pumping an average of 3 oz per session and then it went up to 5 oz two weeks later. I can only see these trends as far as weekly or daily but some days I don’t need to pump at all which brings my average down but I’d rather see trends in pumping per session.
The feature for figuring out when to stop pumping could also be modified to pump towards a specific goal. For example I would like to donate so I need to stash 150 oz so it could help me figure out how much to pump each day or week to reach that goal in a certain time frame.Show lesssg356754
Fabulous for exclusive pumpers!
This app is so helpful! As a first time mom, it was devastating to not be able to breastfeed from the breast, so I decided to give my go at exclusively pumping. I was so discouraged because I was getting what I felt like equates to nothing. After I downloaded the app and saw my progress, it helped me push through the pumps where I got nothing, because I could see that each day I was getting a little more than the previous day. My first recorded pump I got 6 oz in a day, and now I average 47 oz a day. I attribute this to the app. It’s easy to use, it’s a visual tool, and I love the freezer stash count and the countdown to the last day I have to pump to feed my child breastmilk for a year.Show lessJLBH85
The Best App for Pumping Moms
When I started exclusively pumping for our baby I was clueless at what I was getting myself into and overwhelmed at the idea of keeping track of milk amounts. I started off with the free trial and from there I was hooked. It is absolutely worth every penny. This is coming from someone that won’t even spend one dollar on apps. This app has been my companion throughout my pumping journey. I tried many other free apps for logging milk oz and none compare. This one is straight forward, user friendly and very clever. I love the timer built in, I love that you can log your freezer stash and estimate your ending date, I love that it tracks your daily averages. It’s honestly everything I could hope for in a pumping app and has made this difficult journey so much easier. My only wish is that the app would store away all your info and make way for the next pumping journey for next baby!Show lessAdeleechan
The BEST pumping app!
The layout and organization of this app is perfect because I can clearly see all the information in a straightforward and organized way. I also prefer this app over others because I am a mother of multiples and all the other apps I’ve used don’t take pumping for multiples into consideration (they don’t allow for the pump tracking to apply to each baby’s profile or as a single unit).
The function that reminds you to pump as you’re entering your current pumping session and the time since your last session is a genius idea. You can tell real parents put a thoughtful effort into this app.
The countdown calculator is great for planning ahead and helping you determine your needs/goals in pumping.
My favorite feature that I couldn’t find with any other app is the ability to alter the unit of measurement (oz/ml). This is especially important to moms who’s milk is just coming in as they start to produce more and want the ability to easily enter the totals.
The only downside is that you get 50 records before you have to pay for the app and get unlimited records. There is an export data feature so at least it’s not like they force you to pay to use the app. Also, I just wish they’d add features/versions for tracking other parts of infancy (diapers, feeding, sleeping, etc) because I enjoy this app so much!Show lessWaterloobreadbasket
A Working Mom Must Have
I started this app the day I went back to work after having my baby. I’ve used it for every pump every single day since. I love everything about it. The timer is quick and easy to set. It tracks how long you’re pumping. It runs in the background so you can surf the web or watch endless videos of your baby while pumping. I even had to restart my phone one time, and the timer continued running. This app tracks the amount of time you spent pumping and how much milk you’ve pumped out every day. All of that is important to maintain your milk supply after going back to work. I make sure to pump for at least 15 min each time. Anything short of that my milk supply lessens.
Here’s my only wish: this app doesn’t allow for a “breastfed” option. I usually breastfeed my baby in the evening. And since I’m an avid pumper, I can estimate how much I breastfed him. I wish I could add that in to my daily tracker. It wouldn’t count toward the “stored milk” calculator, but it would help track the daily amount of milk extracted.Show lessq4hptl
Great app, can’t do in-app purchase
UPDATED:
ITunes fixed whatever the issue was in the back end! The developer is very responsive and kind enough to help me out. Straight forward app that every pumping mother should have.
This is a great app for mothers that are strictly pumping. Unfortunately, I cannot make the in-app purchase. I’ve been in contact with iTunes for the past couple of weeks and then tried working out whatever the issue is with the developer. No one seems to know what is wrong. I’ve tried signing in/out of iTunes account, restarting my phone, updating to the latest version of this app, checking my cards, checking my phone settings... everything is fine. Frustrated, so I ended up resorting to downloading the other app for logging in the pumping posts. Wish this worked for me.Show lessoregonclimber
Pumping Mommas Need This!!
This is not a bias review at all! I am very particular about apps and if I leave a review it's either the app is really good or very bad and people should know! Well in this case, this app is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! I could not imagine pumping without this app ever! I love that you can push the clock button and it immediately starts your log and times the length of your pump, I love the conversion calculator from oz. to mL! I love that it also gives you a quick glance to when the last time you pumped was. That really helps! And the alarm! I'm telling you if you can pay for his app, do it! It will definitely save you a headache and you'll love the total amount of what you pumped that day! Also the calculator that estimates by how much you make when you can stop pumping! This app definitely earned its 5 stars from me! Let's just say after the trial I bought it and will never let it go 💗Show lessVictoria56781234BT
So helpful
I have been Exclusively Pumping for going on 6 months now & this app has made it so easy to not only keep track on my pump sessions but it’s so awesome to look back on all the hard work & progress I’ve been over the months. It’ll even log all your hours at the pump, it’ll tell you a sum of all the ounces you’ve pumped. It’s provides helpful links & book recommendation to help you through your journey. My most favorite thing about the app though is it allowed me to make a little Widget. So all I had to do is swipe over to see exactly how long it’s been since my last pump session. It is a life saver! I’ve tried other pumping apps (Medela & Lasinoh), & nothing has come close to the quality of this one. All around I’d give it 10 star if it were possible.Show lessunvlori
