### 4/5 — Great app, needs just a few changes to make it AMAZING!!

*2020-11-19, version 2.6*

I love the ease of the app for diapers!  Feeding needs to allow you to start the feeding and add the amount when the baby finishes without needing to go in and edit.(that is easy to forget to do). I wish most that the sleep portion was as convenient as the rest.  If the sleep portion could be adjusted, this app would be amazing!! One other idea, a place to upload photos or videos.  I am the Lolli (Grandma) and would love having a way to send Mommy & Daddy cute pix on occasion within the app.  (Carrots on her face when she was eating lunch, playing in the sandbox, etc). 
I do find the app very helpful!! Hopefully, they will make a few changes and make I even better!!

### 4/5 — Super helpful!

*2020-11-13, version 2.6*

Loved the tracking of eating, sleeping and changing. Helps a lot to see totals for the day to see how your little one is doing. I do wish the sleep tracker was better, if you forget to “start sleeping now” and just put in a time you have to put in an end time. There should be an option to say “TBD” like when you choose “just fell asleep”. Other than that it is a great app.

### 4/5 — Good concept, but too many clicks

*2020-10-18, version 2.6*

I was looking for an app that easily tracked when he ate and naps. However, you have to choose “after 8Am” and then choose the actual time. It’s nice that it’s connected to the clock on my phone, but wish it would just have one time counter that defaulted to 8 am, and then I could scroll up or down from there. Less clicks the better!

This app has a lot of potential since it nice and simple compared to other apps.

### 3/5 — Good with room for improvement

*2020-08-15*

One big thing is that when the app is open you can’t see the time on your phone, which is super bad and inconvenient when feeding a newborn. Leaves you needing to know the time from somewhere else so you can track how long the feed is.
Otherwise good 👍

### 3/5 — Descent app

*2020-05-30, version 2.6*

This app overall is good and completely functions for what I was looking for. I do find some things within the app cumbersome. For example, if your child has been sleeping for 15 minutes before you log it and is not up yet, you can’t really log it. You would either have to say they just fell asleep and lose that time or say that it has been 15 minutes and go back and fix it when they wake up. I also don’t like that it doesn’t predict what you will click on. For example, I exclusively bottle feed and every time I have to scroll to formula. Not a big deal I realize, but annoying nonetheless. Again it is totally functional, just wish it was a bit more user friendly.

### 3/5 — Brilliant...until phone upgrade

*2019-11-03*

This is a great app and I used it on an iPhone 6 for 10 months but on an iPhone 6s the time doesn’t show at the top of the screen, which makes it hard to log events without going back to home screen to check the time.

### 4/5 — Great App, But Fix the Sleep Setting

*2019-09-08, version 2.6*

Like other reviewers said—this app is great. The feed and diaper options are perfect. The sleep option needs to be fixed. I want to be able to go back and put in when my baby fell asleep and when she woke up. The “currently sleeping” thing has messed up the sleep I’m trying to calculate. I shouldn’t have to record the sleep *right* then. I don’t have to with the feed and diaper settings? Other than that, great, simple app for what I need.

### 4/5 — Very simple to use for bottle feeding!

*2019-08-22, version 2.6*

Enjoying this app to record pumping and feeding. It's handy and so easy to use. Wish I could put in my own quantities though as they are preset so sometimes I just have to round up or down.

### 4/5 — Simple, friendly, could be even better

*2019-07-10, version 2.6*

I like this format and it’s very easy to use one-handed. I paid the extra to share the data with my partner, which he appreciates - he can tell before he gets home what sort of day we’ve had. I use the Notes function frequently to describe awake time, outings, baths or any anomalies.

Two elements that could make it better would be improving accessing of past information (getting back to old dates quickly, e.g. a month ago) and having a ‘both’ option for feeding.

### 3/5 — Why do I still have ads?

*2019-01-26, version 2.6*

I have paid two times now to remove all ads from this app.  That’s $1.98 if you need help with this.  I am still getting ads!  I’ve emailed you about this, and STILL am waiting on a reply.  The only reason I am still using this app is because of the ability to share the information with my husband.  Otherwise I feel like the uselessness of your customer service would be enough not to bother!

### 4/5 — Please add an option to track pumping!

*2018-12-07, version 2.6*

Husband and I use this to keep track of our sons feeding and diaper change times and we love it! I exclusively pump and would LOVE an option to track how much I pump at each session in a way that would feed into the daily/weekly/monthly statistics section of the app. Right now, I just enter the amount as a note, but being able to track my supply using the provided statistic tools would be AMAZING for working moms and anyone who pumps, exclusively or orherwise.

### 4/5 — Very useful and easy to use

*2018-11-05, version 2.6*

The only change that i would like is if it just gave a total hours/minutes for sleep/feed then if I wanted more info for start time could click into entry. Otherwise really great app.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2018-11-04*

Great app for developing a routine. Would be nice if you could choose pumped, nurse or formula, or both as a setting based on your feeding method so that each time you go to input a feeding you don’t have to scroll and select it. Then this setting could be manually changed if you change to formula, or nursing and formula etc. Also if you could go back at any time and start a sleep timer that would be awesome! Like for example, if you get around to inputting a nap a half hour after it’s started if you could just select “started napping at ——“ and the timer would be able to adjust. Instead of having to catch it right away or wait till the nap is done to input how long it was. Also would be cool if it could send you notifications/alarms- for feed prepping etc. But it’s a great user friendly app. 👍🏼

### 3/5 — Overall good reviews but with some significant flaws

*2018-10-15, version 2.6*

It does what it promises and is useful but there are some significant issues that make using this app quite inconvenient. As someone else mentioned you can only time everything in increments of 5 so if bb fed 13 min you need to pick between 10 and 15 min. A little annoying and not super accurate. I also wish you could just input the exact time you start feedings or naps. Lastly, when you note a feeding or nap, app enters that you started and stopped on separate lines, making it difficult to see at a glance exactly how many feedings/naps bb has had over the course of a day (there being twice as many entries as feedings).

### 3/5 — The sleep section isn’t user friendly but otherwise a great app

*2018-10-03*

The eat and nappy sections are easy to input but the sleep one is really annoying. Unless you select instantaneously when they wake and sleep it’s impossible to track the sleep accurately being it doesn’t allow you to do it easily input it retrospectively. Obviously a massive flaw because tracking your babies sleep (especially newborn) is important when trying to establish a routine. Other than that,a very useful app.

### 3/5 — Not bad for a free app

*2018-09-15*

Mostly does what I want it to, but would be more useful to be able to type in feed amounts (rather than preset numbers in multiples of 7.5mls, presumably to ease conversion to/from oz). I’m also not sure why we can’t have min increments for sleep times.  I’d also love to be ale to see multiple days in a timeline form, so I can see patterns more easily.

### 3/5 — Overall good app

*2018-08-02, version 2.6*

Overall it is a good app. As new mom it helps me keep track of what time I last fed and what side I last fed on, since I can’t seem to remember anything. The one thing I dislike is that it only allows times to be chosen from five minute increments, this includes the time you started feeding, when diapers were changed, and how long you fed for; it will allow you to choose that you just finished and give you a different time but I don’t always remember to put the info in right away or I am not able to for other reasons. Sometimes my little one feeds for 7 or 8 minutes on a side and my only choices are 5 or 10 minutes which doesn’t accurately represent how long he fed; this is frustrating especially when I have doctors and lactation consultants asking about how long he eats. Otherwise it is simple and easy to use.

### 4/5 — I like it

*2018-07-05, version 2.6*

The app acts weird when recording sleeping. I can’t get it to record correctly. Perhaps, I’m supposed to wait until the baby wakes up to record it but I want to record the moment the baby falls asleep and the moment she awakes. Instead it records the wrong amount of sleeping hours and I cant manually fix it so I end up using the note option instead. Overall, it works well. This is my only complaint.

### 4/5 — Like this app, there are just a couple of little bugs

*2018-03-05, version 2.6*

I enjoy how easy this app is to use, and that it doesn’t have a lot of extras. The only thing I don’t like is how it forces you to choose a time If you don’t push just fell asleep. If they fell asleep 20 minutes ago for example you have to choose how long they slapped where you may just not have put the time in yet.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Made schedule tracking worse - not better

*2021-09-14, version 2.6*

I’m pretty sure this app is no longer active, yet they continue to take payment. The app boasts that it is free, yet charges to sync your phone with your spouse, and also to get rid of ads. I paid for both yet the data never loaded for my spouses app and the ads never stopped. We emailed twice to the account listed for help and never heard back. 

Also, the view is very simple, but is weirdly limited in how it operates.  For example - if you forgot to put in a time (ie when baby started to sleep) and try to go back in and do it after the fact, it doesn’t always show an option for the correct time and you cannot add it manually.  It also makes you do the math yourself on how long naps were before inputting.  What’s the point of automating of you have to do that?

There are much better options out there than this.

### 1/5 — Good but the data export doesn’t work so wasted my money

*2017-11-18*

My husband and I used to love this app. Tracking feeds helped keep me sane in the early days and we found it really useful for when we ‘handed the baby over’ when one of us got in from work. We used it to track milestones and keep a record.. BUT we really wanted to be able to export the data & save the milestones so that we have a record of our wee ones development. This does not work. I contacted the developer no response. I looked at the support site no guidance. In the end Apple refunded me the money for the data export as it just never materialised. So disappointed and I’ve no idea how I’m going to save all this data out now :(

### 1/5 — Don't Sync!

*2017-05-08*

The app itself is fine.  Some tweaks to enhance and update would be good though.  I am extremely angry about the Sync feature! Don't bother, it doesn't work.  Attempted to Sync over a week ago as I got a new phone.  After 3 days of nothing I emailed, they said it wasn't a sufficient way to transfer a lot of data, give it time.  A week after that email, nothing!  Waste of time & money!!!

### 1/5 — Don't get it! They advertise baby caskets!

*2017-01-22*

An advertising just came up for baby caskets. Super inappropriate. Don't download it.

### 1/5 — I paid to go ad free

*2016-12-15, version 2.6*

Hi I have paid to go as free and it is not. I have emailed you twice with no reply. Please email me how to rectify this problem and I will change my review as I enjoy this app but not the ads.

### 1/5 — Keeps freezing and crashing

*2015-06-20, version 2.4*

This is worse than the last update. It crashes and freezes a lot more. Please fix

### 1/5 — Good app, but current update is TERRIBLE!!!

*2013-03-08*

The new current update is terrible. Keeps crashing, and I can no longer use it. What a disappointment!!!

I had prepared a review (giving this app 4 stars), just before i updated the version (massive mistake!): Easy to use, but would prefer if the "eat" function also has a "just started nursing" instead of just time and "just finished nursing". The "sleep" function has both "just started sleeping" and "just woke up" options, which are great. Why can't the "eat" function have the same options too?????? That'll get you the 5-stars

### 1/5 — Great if not for the glitches/bugs

*2011-07-05*

Would be fantastic if it didn't have the glitch/bug of when recording 'just woke up' in sleep tab.. Currently it moves the entry forward by a few hours, and plays up even more if that happens to be an overnight sleep . If/when this is fixed I would rate this application with 4 stars. Would also be nice if it had the ability to email your entries including totals.

Just discovered another bug that needs fixing... The app  recognizes that I fed my child 5 bottles in total however only added the volume of 4 bottles.

### 2/5 — Needs updates

*2019-10-25, version 2.6*

Paid for all IAPs and found the app definitely needs to be updated and bug fixed:
1. clock cannot be shown on Touch ID iPhones 
2. Feeding with no options for several volumes, e.g. 70ml and etc
3. Cannot record start and finish time separately

### 2/5 — Really disappointing

*2018-07-03*

I bought this app because of the option to link users.  Having paid the £3.99 to do this it does not work on any of the other devices I own.  I have emailed their support email twice and had no response.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-02-19, version 2.6*

I love this app it’s simple and easy to use. The feature that I need updated is for the breastfeeding. We only have an option for left or right per feeding it will nice to have both per feeding because some babies like mine feeds 5 to 10 minutes both sides.

### 5/5 — Perfect for Baby’s Schedule

*2020-08-13, version 2.6*

Love this app, very easy way to keep track of baby’s schedule, but I completely agree with a previous post about the sleep timer, needs to be an easier way to go back and plug in when baby sleeps and I wish it was in intervals of 5 minutes instead of 15 minutes, other than that I have no complaints, it’s very helpful.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-06-14, version 2.6*

This app is perfect for what I need it for. I have so much going on that sometimes I can lose track of when baby last had a bottle. Also come in handy for newborn so that you can give the pediatrician a report of feeding averages.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2020-06-06, version 2.6*

We used this for our first one a few years ago and using it again for our 2nd one 💜 it’s simple to use. The only feedback I would give the app developer is if it’s possible to put the current time on the app so we don’t have to toggle back and forth and see what time it is before entering info into the app. Would also like it to automatically advance to the next day. The feedings after midnight stay on the previous day instead of the next day.

### 5/5 — Muy útil

*2019-08-19*

Excelente app para llevar control de la salud del bebé

### 5/5 — Simple, clear quick view, easy to use

*2019-08-04, version 2.6*

My son is 5 months old and I have been using this app for 3 months now and I wish I was using it from the get go. It does everything I wanted to track for baby: eat, sleep, poo. All in one hand while I’m breastfeeding, for instance. And also a note option to track anything else, I track my pumping sessions and type in how many ounces. Baby has been sleeping better since then and I’ve been loving and using this app everyday.

### 5/5 — Loving this app!

*2019-06-29*

First time mom and loving the ease of this app to keep track of everything!

### 5/5 — LOVE IT!

*2019-03-28, version 2.6*

So far I LOVE this app I wish i had known about it from the beginning! But that’s okay I’m glad I found it now my baby is 3 months old and the doctor still asks me how many bottles a day how many ounces and I am terrible at math and keeping up with how many bottles a day or ounces in each and I have been able to keep track AND it calculates the days total for me! And tells me how many bottles that day I absolutely love it! My doctor wrote the name down so she can tell her other patients she was also very happy about it!

### 5/5 — Easy to use!

*2017-11-01, version 2.6*

I got in the ha it of recording my son’s feedings and diaper changes in the hospital. I continues that trend at home, but it was inconvenient to carry around a piece of paper when we were out. So I found this app and it is wonderful! It’s exactly what we needed. I love that it’s nothing extra - I can record the time I fed him, the amount, and his diaper changes. I even like that it totals his feedings for the day and the amount. The best part is I can share this information with my husband so we always know the last time he eat or was changed. Great app - highly recommend!!

### 5/5 — Finally an app that doesn't want to time everything!

*2017-08-14, version 2.6*

Kept trying to find a simple, easy to use and non timer based record keeping app. Downloaded 3 until until I came across this one. Precisely what I want and need. Paid the .99 cents to kill the ads- totally worth it.
