Works perfectly

I’m so impressed with this app & so grateful it’s free. FTM and wanting to keep track of baby kicks. So overwhelmed with all other baby apps that require subscription/payment. This app does what I need with no unnecessary adds/popups. Highly recommend.

Loses track

The app is easy to use, but the kick counter timer keeps restarting on its own, which causes me to lose track of my baby’s kicks. It makes it difficult to complete an accurate kick count.

Glitchy

Love this app and it’s so easy to use but I’ve had a couple times now where I get to the end of counting my baby’s kicks and it doesn’t let me save! So then I have to start over.

Lovee it

I love this app helps me keep track of my baby’s progress and kick patterns

Easy to use

Started using this at about 26 weeks and it’s got a very simple interface and clear instructions. It’s super easy to use and I love that it has a feature for tracking contractions so I don’t have to find another app to download

2.5 stars needs work

It doesn’t save session history which is a huge reason why someone would want an app like this. I also don’t like that you need my zip code to allow me to use the app I don’t feel comfortable with that. It should be an option to not put that. I’d rather just set a timer on my phone and jot down tally marks on a notepad. The general kick count button is a cool simple feature I think is great but the app needs work.

Restarted my tracker after almost 1:20 hrs

Very upset because a completely restarted the app and lost my progress. Will not be using this again.

Notification Spam

I have had this app spam my notifications three times now. It will go all the way to 100 notifications within the span of seconds. First I thought maybe it was a mistake, then it happened a second time, and now with the third time I figured I would leave a review so the developers were aware. Otherwise, the app is fine.

Not user friendly

Want to be able to track anytime the baby kicks, not trying to count 10 times in one session. Also not keen on having to speak to end sessions/give feedback on strength or type of movement. I have a busy job and can’t pull out my phone and say “finish session” in the middle of a meeting

doesn’t show history

doesn’t show me all my kick sessions

I love this app, but I think there’s some misinformation on it.

This is my second pregnancy and I have been using this app to count kicks literally every day. I have so much more peace of mind about my baby’s movements.

The one thing I want to say, is take things you see on ALL pregnancy apps with a grain of salt and talk to your doctor. I’ve seen a pop up recently telling women to not have any cold drinks to get the baby moving. However, a lot of doctors (mine included) actually recommend that as a first step before going to L&D. I wouldn’t want anyone to be dissuaded from something that might be helpful for them.

Requires zip code, ethnicity, and race to sign up

No reason this sensitive data is needed to count kicks and unable to bypass or skip it.

Peace of mind

Really like this app and the ease of using it. Gives peace of mind when you need it.

Infantile design, acceptable function

Ridiculously childish UX, borderline insulting. Loses sessions. You can’t get rid of the annoying “ask Ana” decal that is huge and always in the way. Why is there a “personified” help function anyway? Again, this is infantilizing. The only reason I’m using this stupid interface is bc it works on Apple Watch. We will see how well. Hopefully I can find something less annoying to use and look at

Awesome

Thankyou for a great free app

Reassurance

Great app. Easy to use and very reassuring to see consistency and strength. Thank you for creating this app!

Create account first

This is a waste of my time app! Once you open it you can start kick counting, but what it fells to tell you is that if you don’t create an account before hand when you finally do create one, (I created mine when asked after my session, still on the session) you will lose whatever you already logged!!! They say “well because you weren’t logged in, it doesn’t go to your account and we can’t get it back!!” Why even bother than! Way to stress a pregnant women out!

Don’t like that you can’t end session before 10 kicks

Sometimes I get 8 or 9 which is fine. My doctor recommends 6 in an hour. I have so many unfinished sessions that I can’t save anywhere. Should be able to end whenever.

Great App

Love this app. Very helpful on keeping track of kicks and contractions. Even has resources if you need help.

Works to count, but that’s about it

My OBGYN recommended this app for counting my kicks. I’ve added my pregnancy so that I can view the full history of my kick sessions, and I’ve recorded several, but under “Session History” it says, “Nothing Here — It looks like you haven’t recorded any kick counting sessions yet!” Yet when I finish a session, it shows the chart of every session I’ve recorded!

Additionally, when I go to add notes, there is no spelling/grammar check which makes note-taking difficult since I type so quickly.

Update: the app deleted all my previous sessions, so now I’m starting from square one again.
