### 4/5 — Easy to track but might not be accurate

*2026-06-18*

Easy to use. I enjoyed being able to see how much milk I had in the freezer and approximately when I could stop pumping. However, I encountered an issue when I began using the milk. None of the dates displayed in the app were accurate. I had been diligently logging as I placed the bags in the freezer. I’m certain the dates were correct. It took me several weeks to realize this, during that time I had added some bags that I believed were missing from the brick. Consequently, the accuracy of my available milk is now compromised.

### 4/5 — Great but subscription

*2026-06-13*

Loved this app, easy to use and log milk. Was impressed with the auto calculator which tells you how much time your milk will last. After a few weeks of use I couldn’t add any more milk unless I subscribed which was frustrating as it had a few weeks of data. I subscribed due to this and not wanting to go through my deep freezer and start again.

### 4/5 — Not for combo feed

*2026-04-10*

I like the app but I wish I could had formula quantities to the pumping calculator. I’ve seen the option on other apps…

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2026-02-28, version 4.6.0*

Tracking collected milk is easy! Not so easy is tracking the milk that is then being used. I also wish the pumping calculator was more customizable

### 3/5 — Not worth it

*2025-10-11*

I love the intent of this app! It’s pretty well designed and it’s fun to easily see your average stash. Unfortunately, some glitches made it not worth it for me. Multiple times I was logged out and asked to relog in. However, when I tried to reset my password I never received an email. This meant I had to track on a separate note on my phone and update the app when it randomly started working again. I also found it difficult to remove milk from bricks. I’ve ended up just using a Google spreadsheet. I actually think it’s easier to track. It doesn’t show you the average amount stashed but I don’t actually think that’s helpful - probably anxiety inducing for some.

**Developer response:** I'm so sorry this was your experience! I wish you had reached out to me via support when having these issues, I'm pretty quick to respond and fix and issues with the app if you're experiencing glitches. I also would have loved to hear about your experience with removing milk from bricks. Bricks are a relatively new feature and I'm still adding new elements based on feedback from mamas. Hope you can come back and give it another try!

### 4/5 — Hopeful

*2025-09-17, version 4.3.5*

App keeps crashing when trying to import my csv file. It asks where id like it stored with no options, then when clicking save the entire app closes. I’m really excited to use this app so I’m hoping all my pump data can be added and not manually have to be entered.

### 4/5 — Useful and worth it

*2025-09-13*

Great app for tracking stash. Very basic functions which is a pro and a con. Worth getting.

### 5/5 — Great for easy tracking!

*2025-09-12, version 4.3.3*

This app was very much worth the money, I like the simplicity of it all. Jennifer is also extremely quick at answering issues! Love it.

### 3/5 — Missing a few key features

*2025-07-26*

First time mom here who is nursing + pumping. I use a boon trove when nursing and after the milk is chilled, combine w/ existing cold pumped milk in my fridge. One of the things that irritates me is that the pump times offered are only in 15 minute increments. I already have about 30+ frozen bags of milk with the exact start time written on the bags, so none of the entries I add will match my existing stash. Why doesn’t the exact time feature exist? Seems silly to me especially as someone who is tracking their output/supply based on # of expressions and time of day.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the thoughtful review. You're totally right that the app doesn't offer exact pump times. Most mamas asked for quicker entry, and minute-by-minute tracking actually made it more tedious to enter bags. That said, if exact times are super important (especially for logging an existing stash), you can use the Import feature to add milk with whatever timestamps you want. Please reach out to me via email at support@dairybarapp.com and I can share detailed instructions. Really appreciate you sharing your perspective!

### 5/5 — Such a game changer

*2025-07-24, version 4.1.0*

I am glad to have this app! I was stressing about how much milk I have, how much I need, etc. I love the feature that lets you calculate about how much milk you need to feed your baby to a certain date and how long it will take to get there!

### 3/5 — Update your App

*2025-07-17, version 4.0.8*

Please update the app to allow to select multiple bags and to move to donate. This used to be a feature and you got rid of it. Currently you can only select multiple bags and move to either fridge, freezer or deep freeze. PLEASE FIX THIS. So difficult to manually move thousands of bags one by one to the donate category.

### 5/5 — Incredible and so worth it!

*2025-05-24, version 3.21.16*

I am so thankful for this incredible app! It has been incredibly helpful on my exclusive pumping journey to keep track of all the milk I have in our deep freezer. I’m able to see when I need to use my supply so it doesn’t expire and I have peace of mind that I know how long I have to use it! Thank you for this super helpful tool!

### 4/5 — Temperamental!

*2025-05-18*

UPDATE** app glitch has been fixed and working as it should. Still a little pricey for the issues and hassle but happy the bugs have been worked out for the most part. 


When I looked up the app it was half of the cost that I ended up paying for it two days later when I decided to purchase it. However, I thought it would be worth it to track all my stored milk. And it might be worth it if the app wasn’t so glitchy. It doesn’t open properly. When I open the app it goes to a loading screen of a giant dairy bottle and never goes beyond that unless I delete the app and redownload it. Then it works one time. A few hours later, doesn’t work again. Maybe I’d like this app if it was fixed :( I don’t feel like it was worth 4 dollars for this level of quality at all.

**Developer response:** Hi there, I'm so sorry about the experience you've had! There was a bug in the app yesterday that caused the app to get stuck on the loading screen. If you've installed the app today it should be working without any issues. If you ever run into any bugs or have suggestions for features you'd like to see, please reach out to me at support@dairybarapp.com.

### 4/5 — Love the line graphs

*2025-05-18, version 3.21.9*

I’ve absolutely loved this app and have used it for about 7 months. I love the graphs but wish we could go back to the line plot graphs or make it an option to view them differently. The previous graphs were, in my opinion, much easier to read.

### 5/5 — Worth it

*2025-05-16, version 3.21.9*

Easy to use & helpful to know what milk I have in the freezer & when to use it by.

### 3/5 — Glitchy

*2025-05-16, version 3.21.9*

Really loved the app up until recently when all it does it freeze I can’t get into it. I have to keep deleting it and re-downloading it in order to add milk every time.

### 4/5 — App crashed

*2025-05-15*

I used this app for almost four months now and the last two days I’ve tried adding milk and it’s like the app crashed. I click on the app and it just stays on the green screen with the milk glass. I haven’t been able to use the app now and I feel so lost. I’ve tried clearing cache nothing. I’ve had to uninstall the app many times to log in but after logging back in and then going to another app the app will not open again. Please fix it so I can continue to use the app I love.

**Developer response:** Hi! I'm so sorry about that! There was a bug in the app that had it getting stuck on the loading screen. This is fixed in the latest version in the App Store! Please reach out to me at support@dairybarapp.com with any additional issues, it's always the fastest way to get help! -Jennifer

### 4/5 — Great app but won't open

*2025-05-15, version 3.21.0*

Love the app but lately evertime I try to get into the app it stays on the same screen even while connected to wifi

### 1/5 — Charged without using app

*2026-02-22, version 4.5.2*

I hadnt even opened the app and was charged when it was a FREE download

### 1/5 — Waste of money.

*2021-10-01, version 3.3.0*

The app glitches and is not very user friendly.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2019-11-27, version 1.3.0*

I purchased this app recently and at first, I thought this was amazing! I added in all of my freezer stash and was excited to see the stats in real time.. until it decided to stop working. I have to restart the app several times just to try to get it to sync my data and now when I add milk, it is a day behind, as in milk I add today will show up automatically with yesterday’s date. No matter how many times I switch it to today’s date it still stays as yesterday. If I add a note for myself in the entry to know what the actual date is it sets the date back 2 days! Beyond frustrating!

### 1/5 — Glitches, Buggy, Fails at its only task

*2019-05-29, version 1.0*

This app has a lovely user interface, but is extremely buggy. The app rarely syncs across devices- on my iPad and my iPhone I have 2 different volumes of milk according to the same login and the additional caretaker login, that’s another amount of milk! The app freezes almost every time it is opened. It freezes frequently and fails on every aspect of its functionality.

### 2/5 — Temperamental!

### 2/5 — Doesn’t Add to Stash Reliably

*2025-03-07, version 3.20.0*

I want to love this app, as the concept, design and stats are fantastic but I noticed when adding milk this week it wasn’t adding correctly. I inventoried my stash again and was off quite a bit. Unfortunately, I don’t find using the app useful if I can’t rely on it for its primary purpose.

### 2/5 — Worked great…til it didn’t

*2024-09-21*

Amazing app, I inventoried my whole stash and was feeling great. Then a few days in it just stopped working. I can’t add anything to my stash anymore. Super frustrating after paying for the app, plus all the work I put in to inputting 10L of stashed milk.

**Developer response:** Hi there, I believe you reached out over email and let me know that this was user error. If not, please email me at support@dairybarapp.com and I am happy to help figure out what’s going on here!

### 2/5 — Menu bar problems

*2024-06-11*

Just downloaded the app to use to track my pumped milk, but when I try and go between the different screens like between milk and stats or pumping calculator the menu doesn’t disappear and you can’t click on anything within that section. You only can click on a different section within the menu but the menu stays up.

**Developer response:** I'm so sorry about this! I'm currently working on getting this fixed, but if you go to the Settings app on your iPhone and go to Accessibility > Motion > Turn off "Reduce Motion" everything should work again. Please reach out to me at support@dairybarapp.com if you have any trouble doing this!

### 2/5 — What’s going on with the dates?

*2022-12-09, version 3.6.30*

I just downloaded this and the calendar is all scrunched up so I can only select certain days.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2022-09-27, version 3.4.1*

I’ve used this app for two different breastfeeding experiences now (2019-2021 and 2022-?) and I’ve constantly had the same issues. Whenever I open the “stats” tab, the app freezes. Half the time I try to change the date when saving milk, it’ll freeze. Today my app has completely crashed and I can’t even open it. 

I love the idea of the app, but the execution is terrible.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal - clearly made by someone who gets it

*2026-05-19*

DairyBar is such a wonderful app - it is so easy to use, and it is clearly made by someone who understands what it’s like to pump and track your milk. I loved how easy it was to input milk, and to make adjustments in amounts used, where it’s stored, etc. It became part of my routine when bagging and freezing milk, and gave me so much more visibility into my stash. I also loved the “goal” feature that helped me figure out how much more milk I needed to stash to feed my baby until a certain date. The one time I had a technical issue, I submitted a bug report and heard back very quickly with a resolution.

### 5/5 — Must have app!

*2026-05-15*

I wish I had found this sooner!! I’m on my fourth exclusively pumping journey which is my second journey as an overproducer. I donate milk to a milk bank and this app has been a game changer! I created 3 separate “freezers” - 1 for milk for my baby, 1 for milk to donate, and 1 for bath milk. Now I can easily see how milk I have in the freezer for each category  by viewing the stats. I highly recommend this app to anyone who is breastfeeding and/or pumping

### 5/5 — Best App Ever

*2026-02-28, version 4.6.0*

This is my favorite app. It’s genius. It’s so handy, organized, ingenious, and user friendly. I’m super happy with it and don’t have any negative thing to say about it.

### 5/5 — 5/5

*2025-12-17*

Don’t hesitate to download this app, super easy and simple to use - has saved us wasted lots of expressed milk with notifications when milk’s going out of date!

### 5/5 — Love the app; please add this feature!!

*2025-10-08, version 4.4.2*

App is amazing and great for keeping track of milk storage but as an oversupplier I’ll be donating to my local milk bank in Florida. It would be nice to have an option to move stored milk into a donated category. Other than that, get this app.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-09-28*

For my first son I was guessing how much milk I had pumped. This time around I knew I needed a better system to keep track of my milk. I loved how easy it was to input, remove and overall keep track. My favorite feature was based off how much you inputted your child would drink in a day it says how many days of milk you have left. This put my mind at ease often. So sad my pumping journey is over and im donating my leftover milk. So thankful for this app.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-09-25, version 4.4.2*

The app is great! A couple bugs here and there but so does every app. When there is a bug, the developer addresses it quickly and gets back to you even quicker. 

Great app to help you stay organized in the chaos!

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2025-09-14, version 4.3.3*

Exactly what I was looking for, this helps me keep track of my stored milk, and I love that I can share it, too.

### 5/5 — Absolutely Amazing!!

*2025-09-14*

I am not typically one to write reviews, but I want to let anyone who is considering downloading — DO IT!! This app has changed the game. I am a very type B person, but when it comes to breast milk I have been tracking everything. I’ve been using DairyBar for 7 months now and it has made my pumping / breastfeeding journey so much smoother. I love being able to track milk from the deep freeze to the freezer to the fridge to baby and stay completely organized. 

The app has occasional bugs or crashes, but Jennifer is so quick to respond when you email for support and resolves the issues almost immediately. (Writing this at 11:45pm on a Saturday after an email thread with her helping me). 

At the end of the day, the money is worth it. I am extremely satisfied and would absolutely recommend DairyBar to anyone that is nursing / pumping.

### 5/5 — Worth it

*2025-09-14, version 4.3.3*

I’m an exclusive pumper and an over supplier. This app has been a life saver. User friendly and has all the features I was looking for. Definitely has made my life easier in terms of keep track of how much I have, which bags I’ve used and how long my stash will last me.
