### 5/5 — Incredible tool!

*2026-08-14, version 4.8.64*

Been using this app daily for five months and it is so helpful with tracking milestones and exercising to reach each one. I love being able to see what milestones he should reach next and the activities to succeed at reaching them.

### 1/5 — Paid for Lifetime subscription

*2026-04-21, version 4.8.60*

I paid for lifetime subscription a few years back. I log on to use it with my second baby and the videos are unavailable. I message customer service and their explanation is that my lifetime subscription is not 
available anymore. No offer to make it right or anything.

### 5/5 — Great resource

*2026-03-28, version 4.8.59*

I’ve loved using and having BabySparks. It’s been a go-to for my now 4 and 2 YO’s - the monthly what to expect for the babies really helped me stay anchored. And the daily activities have been fun quick ways to spend a few minutes of undivided attention with each kiddo. This app is easy to use and helpful. I’m aging out now but glad to have had it - Thanks!

### 5/5 — Excellent companion

*2026-02-18, version 4.8.58*

Excellent daily content with insightful articles and videos for development of babies.

### 1/5 — Avoid

*2026-01-29, version 4.8.57*

I wanted to love this app. But it doesn’t save progress losing a lot of functionality in the app. I’ve spoken to support and sent a video and further emails asking for updates. There has been no resolution. Save your money and time and use something else.

### 4/5 — Great idea, technical problems

*2026-01-29, version 4.8.57*

The app is great, the implementation of the app is straight forward and the activities and videos very helpful. However, there are some defects that make the app unusable. Any interaction of the user (completing activities, defining difficulty, checking milestones) cannot be saved. I would recommend the app to so many people if these issues where fixed :)

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2026-01-27, version 4.8.57*

Over the last month or so, the app has stopped working. It no longer saves anything I put in (measurements, milestones,etc)

### 2/5 — Great idea and activities but barely works

*2026-01-25, version 4.8.57*

The idea and activities are great and very helpful but the app has Lots of bugs. Hence, 2 stars. Every 2 days the app doesn’t save the activities that I do and therefore makes the use of app absolutely meaningless. The support replied to me offering a solution that didn’t solve the problem, there was no further response despite my follow-ups.

### 2/5 — Bugs…

*2026-01-22, version 4.8.57*

Seems to have loads of bugs still - milestones don’t save when you track them, activities don’t save when you mark them as complete.

### 2/5 — App needs update

*2026-01-22, version 4.8.57*

Great activities. But the app becomes glitchy recently. When I try to tick or save the completed activities, it jumps back to the start and doesn’t save my activities. Can’t track my progress.
