Leave a Review Count the Kicks!
  • Randomly stopped saving my history

    I had been using this app for about a week. I noticed that it occasionally logged me out when I was sitting down ready to do a kick count, which was annoying but workable.
    This morning, I saw there was an app update so I wanted to make sure I had the latest version. I just finished doing a kick count, and went to look at my previous history and there was NOTHING THERE. It also said, congrats on finishing your pregnancy! Even though it has my correct October due date in the system.

    I tried logging out and in to see if it was a glitch, but nope! Deleted all my previous history. Maybe it had to do with the update? Either way, unusable and poor programming.

    Unreliable. Try a different app or track your progress old school on paper.

  • Issues since new update

    I had been loving the app and loved the sound of the new updates when I read about them coming to it, but now I’m really frustrated with how glitchy the app is being since it updated. It even claimed I didn’t have a current pregnancy profile, made me make a new one but then loaded my previous one anyway so now I’m stuck with two profiles for the same pregnancy & I can’t even combine the data. Besides that, it seems the old data got messed up some how, it’s saying my average time for sessions on that profile was Negative 43 minutes!! 33 sessions I can no longer use for this, thankfully I know what my old average was around for baby’s kicks, but like I said, it’s just frustrating.

  • Counting and Bonding

    Tracking my baby’s in utero movements has been the most fun part of pregnancy for me, and I didn’t need an app for that! But my husband found this app when my OB asked me to be especially vigilant with my kick counts in the last couple weeks before delivery. Sitting down with my feet up and my hands on my belly once or twice a day has acquainted me with his movement patterns and his body positions even better than before. And my baby responds to the attention with more movement! It has been a fun bonding time.

    Thank you so much for the kind review! We are so happy your provider shared the importance of tracking fetal movement and so happy you are doing it! What a great bonding time for you and baby! Happy Counting!
  • Great!

    My OBGYN recommended this app instead of using an old fashioned kick card. I like it! It’s easy and straightforward. I like that there’s a chart to show you the past sessions and it gives you an average amount of time to get to 10 kicks. I’d definitely recommend this to any mom!
  • Gets the job done

    Easy to use and good data collection. No adds pop up while I’m using it which is huge when you’re trying to track movements right when you feel them. I like that you can see a continuous chart that graphs each session.
  • So helpful

    Count the Kicks has been such a helpful app for my family. It simplifies counting kicks and it helped us realize when our first born wasn’t moving as much as she had been which helped me realize I was in preterm labor at 35 weeks.
  • Great 3rd trimester partner

    It’s a great app backing a great cause. Helping me get through my 3rd Trim with less anxiety. Wish it had a screen lock feature so that the screen would not dim out- it takes 30-60mins sometimes to log the kicks and if my phone screen blacks out I forget I was counting. They should come up with a count the contractions feature as well.

  • Okay

    The app worked fine for what I needed it to do but without sounding insensitive I really wish they would keep the references about stillbirth in their own tab instead of having them pop up at the end of a count session. I already knew the importance of counting kicks, hence downloading the app, but the frequent references to the founders' stories was an anxiety trigger. Also, I always go over my due date and every day that I logged on past my due date I would get a pop up saying they noticed I was past my due date and did I need to update my profile with the delivery...annoying to see that reminder that you’re overdue every time you log on. Lol

  • Amazing app with a heart wrenching story

    So extremely grateful to the women who made this app happen. Their lost babies became our gain. It’s such an easy to use, free experience. I love bonding with our little one by counting kicks everyday. Her kicks still give me so much excitement and love and joy. I wish there was an easy way for me to donate to the founders’ cause directly.

  • Makes counting kicks easy

    Before I started using the app I would forget to count kicks throughout the day and start panicking. I would be counting kicks at all hours of the night to make sure everything was okay. Since I started using the app a few weeks ago and I haven’t missed one day! I love that it reminds me and if I go more than a few hours it will alert me. Great app and it’s very easy to use.
