## What is Contraction Timer & Counter 9m?

*** Most downloaded Contraction Timer app in the world! Number 1 in the USA, UK, Australia, Canada, Italy and elsewhere! ***

This is the simplest-to-use contraction timer. The app will help to track your contractions and determine when it's time to go to the hospital.
If you plan on having a home birth, the app will tell you what stage of labor you are in at any given moment.

Keep track of your labor by tapping a single button at the start and at the end of each contraction. The Contraction Timer analyzes the duration and frequency of contractions and will notify you when it's time to go to the hospital.

Thousands of pregnant women around the world have become mothers using our app.

Always consult your doctor to orient yourself in terms of contraction frequency and duration.
This app is not a medical device and our recomendations are based on standard indicators. Your labor may occur differently. Therefore, do not rely exclusively on our app.
If the duration and frequency of contractions do not yet correspond to the necessary indicators but labor pains become unbearable, it is better to go to the hospital as soon as possible rather than give birth at home or on the way there. Trust what your body is telling you.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please email us at neumandev@gmail.com. Your feedback is very important to us.

### 2/5 — Worse than the Android version on every level

*2026-08-21, version 3.3*

The Android version of this app opens immediately to the page where you can track contractions. This version takes you through at least seven different unskippable pages asking optional information before giving you access to what you need — a button to tap that records the time for you. It’s embarrassing that their latest app update includes “removing full screen ads so you’re not distracted between contractions” — either maintain an app that provides a straightforward service or don’t, but stop with the dark patterns that show you clearly don’t care about your primary user base. I would like to see more contraction timer options that are a step up from using the default Stopwatch app on your phone (which has its own limitations or I wouldn’t be looking for a separate app), without sacrificing so much sanity to dealing with data collection during what the app creators know is a stressful time.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-08-16, version 3.3*

There are ad pictures I assume at the bottom of the screen of the timer and they are of provocative clothing models.  I don’t think woman want to have to look at other women like that while they are in labor. Won’t be using this app again.

### 5/5 — Contraction timer

*2026-08-16, version 3.3*

Worked great. Thank you

### 5/5 — Отличный!

*2026-08-14, version 3.3*

Спасибо большое вашему приложению. Четко дает рекомендации, когда можно ещё пережить схватки дома, а когда ехать в роддом. Всё понятно, очень рекомендую!

### 5/5 — Sa

*2026-08-11, version 3.3*

### 1/5 — Pornographic ads

*2026-08-11, version 3.3*

As I’m trying to time my contractions, there’s naked women and penises in the ads. No joke. Deleted app and found one a little more calming.

### 2/5 — New feature needed

*2026-08-10, version 3.3*

Need the ability to add contractions that have occurred and not logged as they happened. ‘Manual add recent contraction’ option

### 1/5 — Paywall during labor?

*2026-08-08, version 3.3*

We’ve been using my pregnancy app for my wife’s whole pregnancy and really enjoyed it. Some contractions have started and decided to go with the contraction timer from them as well just to find a paywall makes me upset to say the least. For example, accidentally hit the start button and you can’t erase that from the history and it messes up the averages… The my… series of apps are pretty good and my wife’s uses them, but this just put a bad taste in my mouth.

### 3/5 — Wish i could log info

*2026-08-03, version 3.3*

I just got this app to try and track contractions. You have to immediately pay for a subscription with no free trial (i paid $3 for a week) so I had no idea how the app operated by my contractions have started so I needed something. 

Unless I’m incompetent at using this app, you can only log contractions in real time (as opposed to being able to manually add one into the log). I’m not always glued to my phone to be able to start/stop the timer right away, so I really wish there was a log setting

### 5/5 — Would highly recommend!

*2026-08-03, version 3.3*

I never write reviews for apps but after using this particular app for timing my contractions at 37.5 weeks I would highly recommend! This app timed my contractions and prompted me to attend hospital. At the time I didn’t believe I was really in labour and thought I was simply having Braxton Hicks contractions. I’m so glad I listened to the app when prompted because once I attended hospital I was already 5cm dilated! I’ll be telling all my pregnant friends to download as well! Being shout out to the creator of this app! Really awesome!
