I thoroughly enjoyed using this app and tracking my wife and baby’s progress and planning for the hospital visit. I literally learned a lot (shout out to the “lady clues” portion) and laughed a lot. This is very dad oriented and I recommend it to all dads! ### 5/5 — Mega *2025-08-12, version 2.21* 2 for 2 👩‍🍼👩‍🍼 ### 5/5 — I recommend! *2025-07-16, version 2.21* The daddy up app is light hearted and informative. ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-07-08, version 2.21* I really like this app from a dads standpoint. I hated using the other apps that are specifically made for the moms and kind of single out the dads. I was the one that got her pregnant so apps about my baby’s progress should involve me more and be more informative. This app does all of that and is what I recommend for all dads to be. ### 5/5 — Man App for Expecting Dad *2025-05-09, version 2.18* What an awesome App! From day 1, this app has helped track and explain stages in a way that’s more meaningful to me than what fruit he’s the size of. This app grows with you throughout the pregnancy as it has tools features and tips to help track your journey, and resources to plan for what’s next. Couldn’t be happier. It covers the scary with a side of humor. The short overviews are a great heads up, and then you can deep dive the expanded write ups to fully understand the baby’s growth as well as how to relate to, support and even take care of momma. ### 5/5 — App *2025-03-31, version 2.18* Good good ### 4/5 — Great app! *2025-03-09, version 2.18* Used app for all 3 of my kids to keep track and get a different perspective than standard mom apps. Updates could be daily rather than weekly as there is a lot more updates and facts available, however this is the best dad app you can get! ### 5/5 — Wish there was a app for after pregnancy *2024-12-11, version 2.18* The app is great leading up to the pregnancy. Just wish there was a dad app for after the baby was born! ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-11-19, version 2.18* Used this app during my wife’s pregnancy and thought it was really helpful. The lumberjack theme was light hearted and helped deliver bite size bits of information throughout the pregnancy. I also used the diary function and bought the printed book once our baby was born, really nice keepsake ### 5/5 — The best! *2024-11-10, version 2.18* Great app ### 5/5 — Baby Norty *2024-10-01, version 2.18* Very vivid descriptions each week. ### 5/5 — This is Epic *2024-09-02, version 2.18* I love it, just try it. It makes me laugh, and it’s gives you as much info as you want, skimmable or deep dive with your questions. It’s helped me feel way less unsure ### 5/5 — Hilarious and helpful *2024-08-29, version 2.18* I’m amazed how cool, fun, thoughtful, and helpful this app is. I wish I had known this was a thing during the first trimester, but better late than never! ### 5/5 — Best app for new padres *2024-06-02, version 2.18* Helpful, fun, brings a bit of levity and does not feel like I need to look at it everyday. And of course manly. It leans into this notion in a pretty hilarious way sometimes. But in a time that seems very confusing on how do be a caring, but strong dude this app totes that line. Recommended it to my brother who is expecting his first a couple months before me. I dig this a lot. ### 5/5 — Best dad I have *2023-12-05, version 2.16* I love this app so much! I have tried several pregnancy tracking apps for dads but this one takes the cake! ### 4/5 — Just a quick review *2023-12-02, version 2.16* Good app that has some dope size comparisons. “30 weeks the baby is the size of a raccoons torso”. My only critique would be that I wish there was more info involving tips on how to help the mom and maybe some more detailed scientific info. Otherwise a great app with some really useful information. ### 5/5 — Fun but effective app *2023-10-26, version 2.16* My wife found this app for me and it is great. Has a good mix of humour and useful information. Lots of features to help you navigate the journey as well as insight into how the mother may be feeling at every stage of pregnancy. ### 5/5 — A little sad I don’t need this app anymore *2023-10-21, version 2.15* I’m deleting this app today, and I’m a little sad about it. Our baby is amazing and this app has been great every week of the pregnancy. Highly recommend to any parents to be. Me, I’m busy with my newborn but I’m ready to Daddy Up! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — THIS APP IS SO CORNY *2025-09-18, version 2.21* this made me feel like alpha MALE 🐺 I honestly cringed so hard it made me wanna throw up I think my wife will be fine if I don’t call her lady lumbar jack or whatever like as a man it’s hard for me to cringe but this app definitely did it ### 1/5 — Terrible and not informative *2023-07-15, version 2.9* Stupid premise and metaphor that is hyper macho for no reason. Doesn’t tell you any useful information. Recommend getting any of the other apps. ### 1/5 — Corny *2023-04-18, version 2.9* Only a few minutes in this app and already see its way too corny and cheesy. Not a good resource for learning about your child’s development. Stupid tops it’s pathetic. ### 1/5 — Poorly executed *2023-02-23, version 2.7* This app is a good idea in thought but it really lacks information and depth. It recycles the the same half baked advice every few weeks like, “vitamin B6, look into it” or something along the lines of keeping the path to the bathroom clean. I was expecting thorough articles on what to expect and how to dad but in reality, there isn’t much to the app. Just a little shape saying how big the baby is and some poor attempts at humor sprinkled throughout. Save your time and get another app or an actual dad book. Rated 5 stars for what? Fathers with a middle school reading level? 🙅🏻‍♂️👎🏻 ### 1/5 — Ridiculous. *2023-02-05, version 2.7* Literally doesn’t even work, I go to open the app and nothing comes up at all. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling 2 times and still nothing. ### 1/5 — This app is a joke *2022-08-16, version 2.4* Literally no helpful information came from this app. The only thing you get from this appThat is even semi-helpful is the week by week size of the baby. This I’ve literally says stuff like you have a beaver for feet you’re chomping through the woods you’ll be fine. ### 1/5 — A waste of 15 minutes of our pregnancy. *2022-04-16, version 2.3* This is the stupidest app I have ever put on my phone. I get better information from targeted adds then I do in this app. The fact that this was one of the top rated pregnancy apps for dads says something about our culture, I’ll stick to the bump for now. Lady lumberjill agrees with me. ### 1/5 — App has gone to crap *2022-03-25, version 2.1* Used for 1st pregnancy and was great. 2nd pregnancy rolls around, get excited to use app and now crashes, lost all previous data, and unusable. Luckily their are other app options now geared for dads. Hopefully with better App support, also. ### 1/5 — Not accurate *2021-12-25, version 1.21* This app is not accurate at all. What it says about the changes in my wife are far from true and the size comparison for the tiny parasite are also quite a bit off. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2021-11-16, version 1.21* I tried to create an account but it just sat there on the account creation form. There was no error message or anything. To the app owners : I can recommend some good overseas QA workers if you want to start actually testing your app before release 🙄 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome man app *2026-05-29, version 2.27* This is a fantastic app. When my partner and I were expecting our child she had numerous apps she was reviewing and sharing with me, I found them all a bit tedious and female based. Daddy Up there’s a more aimed at men and adds a little bit of humour to the mix from the man’s perspective. Free and easy, and highly recommended ### 5/5 — Pretty Male Friendly *2026-05-27, version 2.27* Ngl this app is excellent for dudes ### 5/5 — Great app !!! *2026-03-30, version 2.27* Great app for dads, first time dad here and this is wonderful for keeping track and it has incredibly knowledgeable tips ### 5/5 — A new review from a new dad. *2026-03-16, version 2.27* As a new dad, this app has changed completely the way I view pregnancy. The simple updates every week showing what to expect for the upcoming time period, the weight comparisons, the ways it makes the dad feel included, it’s all perfect. I didn’t need to download any other apps. At times it was hard for me to understand what my wife was going through, but this app changed that. My son has now been here for just over a week, and though I am sad to see it go, I’m glad it shaped who I am now. Thanks to all the devs, now it’s time for me to go, and daddy up. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2026-01-14, version 2.25* Wow something pregnancy related totally made for men, I love what this app does to make the pregnancy journey fun, informative and organised. My partner is so impressed with how on top of things I am, thank you to the developers! ### 5/5 — Be the man you want your kids to become *2026-01-12, version 2.25* Lets gooooo ### 5/5 — Review *2025-12-29, version 2.25* Best app there is for fathers guaranteed understanding ### 5/5 — Simply Wonderful *2025-11-15, version 2.24* This app helped give me little affirmations every week on the journey to fatherhood. I graduated now, but this app helped prepare me, and I can not recommend it enough. Daddy Up. ### 5/5 — Came back *2025-11-13, version 2.23* Loved it so much that when we had our second, I came back for more! 😊 ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-10-07, version 2.21* I first downloaded this back in 2020, when we were expecting our first, used it all through my wife’s pregnancy and after our daughter was born, now we’re expecting our second and it’s come back into use with the hints, tips and jokes, highly recommend this app to any father, expectant or already a father. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
