No monthly plan
The app is forcing you to buy annual subscription when I just need for a few months
Loving it
Used 5 years ago for my first daughter and now for the second one. I wasn’t remembering the name and downloaded other apps but nothing compared to this one, it’s simple to log and easy to see the informations, very complete tool to track the baby’s routine.
Update: Subscription is now working
Updated review: I was having trouble getting Glow Baby to recognize my Premium subscription but the Glow team was quick to fix it for me. Thank you!!
Previous review: have glow premium already but this app isn't working - asking me to pay again! :(

Great but
I switched to this app after another app failed. I have a lifetime subscription so I don’t see ads. It’s easy to use but I am so tired of their breast pump ad. Every week when I open the app it takes me to their sale page where I have the opportunity to buy their pump for $169.99. Every. Week. I’ve been using this app for over a year. If I was truly interested in their pump I would have bought it by now. It is super annoying.
All of their apps are linked so when I had notifications turned on I would get spammed 4 times with the exact same messages. Yes I’ve gone into each app and double-checked to see what notifications I have. It’s got so bad I had to turn them off.
As for the app itself it seems to run onto problems if you add a second caregiver who has their own phone and version of the app. Things get entered but don’t stick. Or the other caregiver doesn’t have a sub so they see ads all the time even though their account is linked to yours. Overall not a great system but it works most of the time but not all the time.

Just a shop essentially
Being a FTM, I wanted to get a tracker for my baby’s progress and signed up for Glow Baby. I opted for the free trial with automatic annual payment - I wish I had cancelled it soon enough.
The amount of notifications to the Glow Baby Shop items is insane- even attempting switching them off doesn’t do anything. I have little interest in buying more items, but especially not from an app that sends 2+ unnecessary shop notifications a day.
For my initial goal to track my baby’s progress, this app fails.

Love it!
Easy to manage and helpful to track baby milestones and breastfeeding and growth charts! All in one app, super nice when you’re sleep deprived having everything in one
Leider nur Chats
Leider kann ich nirgends die Sachen eintragen so wie auf den Bildern zu sehen sind. Das einzige was mir angezeigt wird, sind Chats und Gruppen vieler Themen. Dafür war die App für mich aber nicht gedacht. Ich wollte den Schlaf etc. Tracken. Leider nicht möglich.
Heading in wrong direction.
Don’t like the new trend of mining/and asking irrelevant data to resell. I’m already a paying customer…
Great app

Still handy after 4 years
I downloaded this app when I had my first son in 2021. I purchased the lifetime pro membership and it’s beyond worth it. I was able to use it to track feedings with both my sons but now it’s been handy to track fevers and medicine when they’re not feeling well. We’ve also continued to track their growth with the app too!

Stop asking if I want to purchase breast pumps
The app is great for tracking, but I’m bombarded with pop ups and notifications about purchasing their breast pumps. I already have two breast pumps from different brands so I don’t need another one. I’m also an exclusively pumping mom, so every time I log a pump I get a pop up ad for their pumps. It’s incredibly annoying to the point where I’m considering using another app. Please make an option to stop being asked about the pumps for those who went with other brands.

App quits while logging
This app constantly quits and loses data in the middle of trying to log. Not user friendly for an app that is supposed to be used FOR LOGGING.
Nothing works
Paid $90, stuck in a loop of trying to log in and use the app. Even after paying $90, the app requires that I provide my insurance information so that their partners can reach out to me with offers….. not a fan
Great Baby Tracker
I love the app it’s to cute and easy to manage
Hey
I want a free trail but longer than 3 days or 7 days. Please and thank you
Ads and upsells even when you pay
The app has served my partner and I well, but it’s clear the company is trying to squeeze more revenue wherever they can find it. I recommend the app but don’t be surprised to see full screen ads for hardware even after you pay.
Love this app
Love this app have used it for all my babies
🚨 Critical UX Flaw: Forced “Insights” Pop-Ups Block Data Entry After Every Log
Issue Summary:
Whenever you log a new data point (feeding, diaper, sleep, etc.), the app automatically triggers “Insights” pop-ups that overlay the screen. This design flaw temporarily blocks user interaction, preventing you from scrolling or adding new entries until the insight card disappears.
Impact:
This disrupts workflow and causes unnecessary friction for users who need to log multiple entries quickly—especially when tracking a newborn’s activities in real time.
Request:
Please remove or provide an option to disable automatic “Insights” pop-ups after each log entry so users can continue inputting data without interruption.

App is good
Only use the growth feature at this point. Way too many ads
Good app
Good app, it’s a bit pricey.
