Quick and Simple, but lacks one critical feature
I was able to quickly and easily install this app and get into the lactation pod at the Atlanta airport. The pod was wonderful and my baby quickly fell asleep after being so wound up at the airport. I was going to stay in there and let him rest for as long as possible, but after a while there was a knock at the door. I didn’t answer because I didn’t want to wake my baby, but soon there was another knock so he woke up and I went to the door. Another couple was there, and apparently they had been waiting. I can understand that they needed to nurse their baby, but I wish the app had a feature to let me know they were waiting, because I probably could have snuck out quietly and kept my baby asleep. As it was, they were miffed about having to wait, and I was miffed that they woke my baby up. This would probably be a simple feature to add to the app.Show lessSpringBlooms

Red eye, delayed and deplaned
We were taking a red eye flight back home. Sadly our flight got delayed and then deplaned. My little one had been screaming already and then we found the pod right next to our gate. It couldn’t be anymore perfect. The dim lights and a privacy allowed me to nurse my little one to a sound sleep while we wait for our flight. The app is perfect it took less than a minute to load and access the pod. Thank you so much for providing this wonderful space.Show lessyacquelynne

So pumped you found a pod at your gate when you and your little one needed it! Thanks for the kind review.Frustrating onboarding
I’m at the aquarium and my baby is screaming he’s so hungry. I finally locate the lactation pod, it’s available, but I can’t get in without downloading an app, surrendering my email, enabling Bluetooth, creating an account with password, then finding the pod and opening it... By this time I’m getting hysterical myself because my baby is so upset and I wasn’t expecting so much friction just to feed my baby. Other pods in airports just use a manual deadbolt, like any bathroom stall. If you are providing a quality service (it looks like you maybe are - helping us find options) I will create an account later. Please don’t hold me and my baby hostage when we’re most vulnerable.Show lessPM247

Hi there, thank you for this important feedback. Our app is a work in progress and your review will help us improve it. App access for our pods helps ensures they’re only available for those who need a private space to pump or nurse—not nappers, vapers or phone-chargers. Of course, we know that even a minute delay in feeding when you’re pressed for time can be stressful. Please accept our sincere apologies.Useless pod
I struggled to find a place to change my baby in the SAT airport. I thought this pod might have a place to safely lay down and change my baby like other airport lactation rooms but it didn’t! It was just 2 hard benches and a mirror and some space to put stuff, not suitable to sit or lay your baby down safely. The pod felt oddly laid out and cramped and the lights turned off automatically after only being inside for a minute just looking around! I had to just leave after wasting all this time downloading the app and signing up. I can see how it would be useful for pumping moms but not in the dark! Sure I could feed my baby in there but not comfortably!Show lessCista277
Tandem breastfeeding at busy airport
This pod Made breastfeeding my twins so much easier at the busy airport !!! My four year old was able to sit on the other bench while I nursed the twins and we were all safely all contained in space . Took a lot of stress off of me and I was actually able to relax for a little bit before our big flight. What a wonderful idea, we live in the best country and have such great services!Show lessLaura twin mom
Life saver.
I needed a place to pump for my 3-month-old daughter who won’t breastfeed anymore. That’s been stressful enough. So imagine my stress level when I had to fly with her alone to a funeral. The Mamava pod was a lifesaver. Somewhere private and clean to pump, eat some leftover pizza, and try to pull myself together. It’s not a pod. It’s support in a physical structure. The app is easy and accurate and helpful to use as well. Thank you, Mamava.Show lesschhica02

Thank you for taking the time to leave a kind review during this stressful time. We're so happy our pod could help make your travels a little easier!No use if booths aren’t listed on the app.
I’m at JFK terminal 8 gate 18 and there’s a pod, but not listed on the app, staff tell me a code but it doesn’t work. There’s a very helpful member of staff trying his best with no luck.Sfletchuhuhuhuhuh
Such a great idea!!
No more trying to track somebody down to open up the nursing room for you. Simply download the app, allow your location and it knows exactly where you are and unlocks the pod automatically. Nice clean and quiet space for nursing. So happy I came across a couple of these on our trip._10Al
