Love the stats!

I exclusively pump and was an undersupplier until I started medications, so I wanted to get a baseline of what I was producing and to see my increases. Luckily, the meds worked for me and I’ve been able to track significant progress. I love this app!! The only little things I could ask for are:
-when going into the Stats and History menus, you have to scroll to get to the top
-I’d like to be able to scroll further through the bar graphs. Right now you can only see the last 10 days/weeks/months.
-I am curious about my “ounces per minute” I’m sure I could figure it out in an excel spreadsheet but I’m a little lazy/bad at math and excel
-I’d like the option to have only one pump time instead of pump times for left and right breasts. I use a double pump (the most common?) and I have to input both numbers for each pump which can be somewhat tedious.

Overall, thank you for this app! Is everything I needed and gives me more insight than I knew I wanted.

Great app but…

I really like this app… except for the fact that once you press “submit” on anything, you can’t go back and edit it. Accidentally said you pumped 60oz instead of 60ml?? Well, screw you… your data will be forever skewed because there’s no way to go to that pump session and edit it. I really like all the features on the app, but there HAS to be a way to edit your entries. Please update?!

Disappointed

While the app does capture all the necessary information to track your pumping I find that there are many glitches with the data. Pump times were added when I didn’t pump, milk that was marked as used would reappear as available and duplicate pump time entries appeared.

Great for Exclusive Pumpers

Been using this app for two months. I’d love to see an updated interface. Times have changed and there are better looking apps out there that will grab users attention but not necessarily work better. There are some restrictions and no “help” for better understanding. Wishing for custom reminders, maybe setup like iPhone alarms.... where you can customize the message and time. Would love the option for motivational notifications! It would be nice to be able to pump into more than 2 containers for one session.... maybe a drop down with several numbers listed - that will save time on pouring and moving the stash. Would love to drag-and-drop rather than bounce back and forth from stash to move. Not sure of Export feature? LOVE the summary for the day on the top of the screen!!

Thank you Mike for all you do for us milkers :)

Not what i was expecting

I am not satisfied with this app. I would like a refund as it does not fit my needs. It is not difficult to use however the set up is not easy to maneuver about.
