### 1/5 — Glitchy, clunky, freezes, unusable

*2023-10-15, version 2.1.7*

Worked okay in 2021 with my first pregnancy — clunky and slow but made cute videos and app eventually worked. Now in 2023, it is so glitchy and freezes so often I can’t even log in and use it without it timing out. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Pity. Cute idea but lousy functionality.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2023-10-10, version 2.1.7*

Took weekly photos from 10 weeks and then went to take 20 and all photos were gone from my account and I was kicked out. Logged back in, everything gone! Luckily I saved all photos to my phone! Very poor! Worst app!

### 1/5 — Sembrava interessante e invece…

*2023-09-19, version 2.1.7*

Carina l’idea delle foto in sequenza peccato che improvvisamente riapro l’app al 7mese e come per magia tutti i dati e le foto raccolte negli ultimi mesi sono state eliminate. Nessun modo di recuperarli. Rabbia a 5 stelle, voto 1

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2023-09-08, version 2.1.7*

I used this 2 years ago and it worked well now it does not work and does not store my photos and it cannot connect to the server

### 1/5 — Fotos einfach unwiderruflich verschwunden

*2023-08-11, version 2.1.7*

Die Grundidee der App ist sicher eine tolle - wenn dann aber nach 24 Wochen täglicher Fotos einfach alle Fotos verschwunden sind und sich nicht mehr herstellen lassen, bringt mir das leider auch nichts außer Frust und Enttäuschung! Kann die App leider absolut nicht empfehlen!

### 2/5 — Great idea, poor execution

*2023-01-04, version 2.1.7*

It would be such a nice app if it would consistently work. I have only been able to take two photos and I like how it can put them together in a video and that you can see where to position yourself for your photo. Now it’s saying it needs permission from my phone for the camera which i have checked that it does already. It provides a link to follow with this alert but the link goes to March of dimes but the link is no good any way.
Could be done better and would be great to have

### 1/5 — Lost everything

*2021-05-29, version 2.1.7*

Lost all my photos up to 37 weeks.

### 1/5 — At 24 weeks the app deleted EVERYTHING

*2020-10-20, version 2.1.7*

I was happy to have somewhere to log my photos and make a “movie” as I’m pregnant with twins. I started a week after I found out I was pregnant. Yesterday I went to log a photo and EVERYTHING is gone. Still has me marked at 24 weeks but everything else I put in the app is gone. Won’t even save a current picture. So infuriating that half way through I’ve lost it all.

### 1/5 — Unable to slow down the pictures for final video

*2020-09-28, version 2.1.7*

I have collected pictures on this App but disappointed w the movie editor. Doesn’t give me much option other than to add music.  I saved the video clip and sent it to my camera roll Nd the format is not correct. Only shows a corner of the video on the final save.  I like the music but help!? The pictures go by too fast and no way to slow down.

### 1/5 — Video feature doesn’t work

*2020-05-07, version 2.1.7*

I downloaded the app as I am towards the end of pregnancy and thought your video was a cute idea. 
Adding photos I’d taken throughout pregnancy was easy enough.
Unfortunately when you go to edit the video, the sound options don’t work. On the app the photos become a cute little slideshow. Unfortunately when you try to save the video it is completely messed up and only shows the lower left corner of each picture, no bump at all, which means you can only view the video in the app :(
Please fix. I would love to have this as a cute memory, but for now it was just waste of several hours of my time :(
