Peace of mind

So happy that they have come out with an app where i can track the progress of my children. Definitely needed to happen a long time ago go .

Weight tracker doesn’t work

The weight tracker doesn’t populate the information I’ve entered. Length and head come up fine.

Lost data

I had to delete the app to allow for space to download a phone update, and I lost all the data from both of my children

Lacking good design and helpful features

- I’m using an iPhone 15 Pro Max and the app options at the bottom (home, explore, contacts etc..) are partly cut off so they are hard to click on.
- I cannot find any information on my next appointment, though I can see that notifications are turned on for appointments. This should be in the home page for easy reference.
- There’s a notification for filling in a survey, with a link that cannot be clicked on nor copied so it can be pasted in a browser.

Can’t even open the app

I open the app and it’s just a blank screen…I use to use this for reference for when bubs needed immunisations and look at the info and use most of the features… now it’s not usable and I’m scared if I delete the app and re download I will lose all my old data of my first born :( I have a 1 year old too now and can’t use it for him or do anything…

Worked for 3.5 years now it crashes every time

I don’t bother opening it
The growth tracker was great but I can’t access the ap. It worked fine until mid last year

Seems I’m not the only one this happens to

Developers please fix

1.5.9 still crashes

Great app - when it works! App update has not solved the crashing issue 😔

Good but glitchy

Good when it works but recently it just wouldn’t open - only displayed white screen - for over 2 weeks. Had to delete and lose all my data to get it working again. Big shame considering the growth tracker is one of my main uses for it

Easy to navigate, handy to note growth

I like the app- it’s a handy place to link useful resources. I mostly use it to track growth. Really easy to navigate.

Incorrect and misleading centiles

Weight tracking graph and table displayed incorrect centiles. Only revealed when I inspected the graph more closely (difficult to do as you can’t zoom in). Very misleading and potentially dangerous!!

Not good app

When i tried to open the milstone in app. It keeps shutting down itself. Is It a bug?

Lost my child’s data

I lost 5.5 years of data. The app glitches and closes when I select my first child. Still seems to work for my second child. Very disappointing.

Good app but

The latest update doesn’t allow me to look at milestones? Something wrong with the update they made. Please fix

Kicking me out

App keeps closing out of it. Can’t add data.

Growth tracker crashes

I’ve been using this app for 2 years now but the last few months have been annoying as the “milestones” tab crashes everytime I try to open it so I can’t view any of my child’s previous measurements which this app is the only record I have! Please fix this bug asap

App closes when clicking on milestones

The app keeps shutting down while trying to access the milestones under Growth tracker. Otherwise great

Growth tracker not working properly

The app is automatically closed every time I try to view millstone in growth tracker. The % on the chart is always 0% which is clearly an error. I’d love to see an improvement on this because I found growth tracker is quite a good feature if it works properly.

Flashing back

Keep flashing back, it won't open

Crash after Crash

It crashed as I was adding details in the growth tracker and now it crashes whenever I try to use the growth tracker! I have had it for 5years and had now exclusively used it as a growth tracker. Sadly I cannot export my data to an alternative app.

Crappy new update

Loved the app however the newest update early June 2023 won’t actually allow you to view the milestone tracker and keeps crashing. Tried deleting app and reinstalling but still not working.
