Exceptional
My baby’s just turned 13 months old and I found out about your app 2 weeks ago and I really suffered with friends dropping off, breastfeeding, sleeping, postnatal depression and anxiety and I would have loved to have had support and to remind myself there’s other mums going through the exact same experience. Your app has saved a part of me that I didn’t know I needed, just have a hug sent to me and seeing all the other warm lights on during the night when I’ve been struggling most is what counts. Thank you for creating this space for all us mums. We are all navigating hard times together 💛

Amazing!
I've only recently started using this app and I wish I'd discovered it sooner and it had been around for my first child! It is so comforting to be up at crazy hours and see that other mamas are up to, to know while you feel alone there are others up! I love being able to send anonymous hearts to other users and let them know I see them and what they do! Definitely recommend this app!

Would recommend to any moms
Whether you are a soon to be mom, a new mom, or have been dealing with the ups and downs of motherhood for years, this app is truly such a beautiful concept and community!
Amazing community
This app has seriously helped me postpartum with keeping my sanity intact! There’s something so comforting about knowing there are other mums going through the exact same thing at the same time - it’s really helped with the feeling of loneliness after having a baby!
Great concept
I believe this app is a great concept. Recently being diagnosed with PPD has been difficult, and I find myself trying to find support or people that are going through the same thing as me, but I am not huge on conversations. So sending a wave or hug to others just as a “hey, I’m here too!” is great for me. I just find it silly that I am limited to 1 wave OR hug per day to share to others that are wanting that sense of comfort/connection also, unless I want to pay… I feel like that feature shouldn’t be limited to 1, I get not having unlimited hugs/waves but lets maybe not make the limit for the free version be so low. That’s not even 1 wave AND hug, you have to choose lol .. silly.

So encouraging
This app has been so encouraging and helpful! I used to feel so alone during the night with my newborn but seeing moms all around awake at the same time and helping with questions or concerns has been so comforting! I recommend this app to every mom!
First child
I just had my first baby and I have felt so alone and overwhelmed during those late nights. To have an app that brings encouragement and community in a time of vulnerability is something I didn’t know I needed.
Missed opportunity to provide resources to struggling moms and babies!
This app is very comforting postpartum as it helps you to know you’re not alone when you’re up at all hours with baby, and allows you to relate to other moms. HOWEVER, the creators really need to add a feature that allows you to report or flag users who post concerning messages.. With PPA/PPD being so common, it’s really a missed opportunity to get resources to a vulnerable population. I’ve seen some scary posts and been very concerned for the safety of both moms and babies, but am left feeling helpless because there is no way to bring attention to this! The app should readily share options for help for those who need it and posts should be moderated with the option to report.

Amazing and supportive app
I love this app! Being able to speak directly with moms who may be dealing with the same things as you is so helpful. The beacon light feature is amazing as well, being up late at night with babies can be super lonely and depressing but being able to see other moms up as well and send them hugs and receive them makes it a little better. I have been struggling postpartum, but since downloading this app I have been able to feel a bit better.

A Godsend
Was up at 2AM the other night sobbing and this app was suggested on TikTok. I downloaded it and I can’t lie it truly helped to know that there were other moms in my same situation up at the same hour. I really appreciate the app developers. Thank you ❤️
Very helpful for the rough days/nights
I’m a new mom that has been going through a lot since I gave birth and I’ve recently discovered this app and I really wish I found it sooner but over all it still helped greatly
Most support I’ve ever had 🥹
When I first saw the beacon app I thought it was just another one of those free trial then you have to pay and half the time it’s not worth it, but honestly- it’s the best support I’ve ever had. I struggled through some dark times with my postpartum depression. Being up at 2 in the morning feeding a baby can really drain you sometimes. Being able to see all of the beacons lit on the app gives me strength to keep going. It makes me feel less alone. I can see that other moms are going through the same thing. And the best part is it’s all anonymous. You can vent and ask for advice and anyone can answer. I’ve loved my experience with beacon so far and would HIGHLY recommend you getting it. You’re not alone.

Beautiful app
This app has made me feel supported by moms I don’t even know. It is so beautiful, you’re up feeding your little one or crib transferring for the 8th time that night and you get a notification “a mom has sent you a wave”. It makes you feel happy and less alone. People in your house may be asleep but hundreds of moms are awake with you and ready to give support and love. It’s amazing

Best app for moms
I don’t normally leave reviews but this app truly has helped me. Being a new mom, at times I felt very alone and vulnerable. Being up all night I felt like I was the only one. This app has shown me that I was not alone and there are many moms out there that are going through the same and we are together in a way. Reading messages of hope brought me out of a dark place and I am truly grateful I stumbled upon this app. Thank you.

Best app
This app is an essential for new parents or parents in general I love it 100/100
Needed This So Much
So happy to have found this app. I wish I knew about it after having my first baby but am so glad I have it now. I tell all my friends who are new moms about it. There is just something so validating about knowing you aren’t alone in your feelings during this season or middle of the night wake ups.
Grateful to feel a sense of connection in a way I haven’t been before.

I wish I could give this to every mom I know.
Beacon is saving my sanity as a mom already feeling stretched thin. My sundown-scarred are so much less intense knowing I’ll get to send a hug or a wave to another mom who might be rocking her baby to sleep at the same time I am!!
Thank you
3am. Bawling my eyes out. Babe won’t fall asleep. Random notification that a mom sent me a hug. That feeling meant everything.
A blessing!
This app is Genius! Wish this app was around 15yrs ago when I had my 1st. I was so alone. I would’ve loved this app so much then. Please download this, it feels nice knowing you’re not alone battling mom life.
This is a heaven send imo
I’m well past the stage of having littles, sadly. But when I heard about the app, I remembered the loneliness I had even being surrounded by babies and toddlers and I signed up immediately to help other moms. Truly, I’ve never seen anything like this and I believe this app will do wonders and big things
