### 4/5 — Love this!

*2023-03-16*

Great data! Organizing my stashes is so easy. Easy to use. Helps me know when to use my milk before it expires. Great to see my change in production.

Second baby and I cannot delete my info from pumping for last baby. Numbers are off and I’m getting a large negative number on my net change. 
I need to be able to add or delete children. I love that it saved my data but now it’s all mixed. Unable to delete a pump session only able to set amount to zero one at a time. That needs a fix. Also I see no updates in 4 years. How do I ask my questions as the website doesn’t seem to populate.

### 3/5 — Like it, don’t love it

*2023-02-25, version 1.2.0*

I had a different app with my last baby and really liked that one but my “free slots” were up and I didn’t want to have to buy the upgrade, but I might. This app serves its purpose for what I need and that is to track how much milk I have in the freezer. I nurse my daughter exclusively, this is just the milk that I’ve had to pump due to engorgement to save for when she goes to daycare. And I will record my pumping sessions once I return to work. It’s not super user friendly but after some trial and error I got the hang of it. I’m also curious about the storage guidelines. It says my milk is only good for 6 weeks in the freezer and 8 weeks in the deep freeze, when the CDC has vastly different recommendations on the milk storage timeline. I just don’t want someone else to be misled that their milk has expired after such a short amount of time when it has not.

### 3/5 — Great app, but needs improvement.

*2022-10-26, version 1.2.0*

Just downloaded and I am very impressed and love that there are multiple stashs! I am definitely going to be busy adding all my freezer milk to the app. I store all milk in amounts of 4oz in bags. 

My current complaint right off the bat tho is that you cannot have a bottle or bag larger than 5.5oz. That is going to be very frustrating for me since I pump much more than that at a time and will have mason jars of 12oz from a single pump session. I would just rather not log any fresh milk I keep in the fridge if that means I have to split it up and it not accurately be per container in my fridge. Especially since I planned on sharing the app w/ my family to help them keep up with it too when they watch baby.

### 2/5 — Crashes continuously!

*2022-07-23, version 1.2.0*

Loved this app at first but then it started to crash nonstop as I’m adding more bags to my stash. It would also not save every entry…I would go and add 8 bags only to find that it saved 5 of those bags in the entry log. I have been using this app for months now and only just caught this malfunction so now wondering how accurate my stash even is at this point since I have only just now started checking to make sure it logs every bag. Frustrating as there is no way I can spend time going back and making sure every bag pumped and stored is accurate!

### 2/5 — Not for me

*2022-04-03, version 1.2.0*

My problem with this app is the UI. Let’s say I use the pitcher method during the day and pump and add to the pitcher in my fridge. Then, every other night I bag up the milk in 4 ounce increments and freeze. 

This isn’t possible with this app. They expect every pump session to be one bag or bottle and that bag or bottle when moved into the freezer stays the same. 

I wish there were several things different. It doesn’t work with the way I store milk.

### 2/5 — Decent but needs improvements

*2022-03-02, version 1.2.0*

Decent app to help keep track of what you have and when milk with expire, but guidelines for storage are arbitrary and do not follow CDC guidelines. Can edit the automatic expiration dates in settings, don’t understand why an app created in the USA do not follow USA guidelines.  
Also, there isn’t the ability to countdown to when you can stop pumping because you have enough supply. 
Finally, emailed a question to the provided email with no response. 
Overall ok but needs improvements. People should be aware of the misinformation provided with in the app itself. I don’t like their storage guidelines aren’t cited and contradict information provided to new moms in the USA.

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2021-10-18, version 1.2.0*

This app is so glitchy. It regularly doesn’t record when I input a session or an amount. I have to add a fake blank entry for the original real on to show up. It also freezes and crashes periodically. And it duplicates entries at random. I only use it for tracking my output amounts as I have no freezer stash and, when it works as it should, it works well for that.

### 4/5 — Exclusive pumpers must have!!

*2021-04-22, version 1.2.0*

I love being able to track my stashes and be able to separate them by fridge or freezer and even make separate stashes for separate boxes in the freezer. I can also track what I’m pumping. My only wish is if it could also track how much baby is eating. I just delete milk from my storage when I feed it, but it doesn’t keep track of how much is deleted or anything. Add that and it would be 5 stars hands down!

### 4/5 — Wish I would have used this from the beginning

*2021-04-13, version 1.2.0*

Only complaint is that the expiration dates for the milk do not follow regular guidelines. The app says deep freezer milk is only good for less than 2 months when the CDC states “6 months for best” and “12 months acceptable.” Not sure why this app has such a quick expiration.

### 4/5 — Very functional

*2021-03-08, version 1.2.0*

Best app to track stored milk in freezer. However, was wondering if the app could provide notification for expired milk depending where it’s stored vs a standard 30 days. 
Example, if it is stored in freezer make it an option or a set expiration date of 6 months. If it’s stored in deep freezer, then make it a year. 
I think this would be perfect to help track. 

Thank you.

### 4/5 — Please fix the server

*2020-10-06, version 1.2.0*

I love and use this app often, however for more than four days now I have not been able to do much with it because the app is not connecting to the server. I cannot make notes, or even edit bottles when I split or combine. Please I beg you can you fix this issue. There aren’t any other apps for just milk storage that are like this one.

### 3/5 — Good concept- but there are glitches

*2020-10-04, version 1.2.0*

I like the concept of the app. I have been recording my milk for months. I have noticed now that I’m using what I have stored in my deep freezer that my milk is recorded in triplicate. This defeats the purpose of knowing how much I have in storage for long term use and being able to stop pumping early. Do I have enough to last until my baby is one or will I fall short and have to supplement with formula at the end because I stopped pumping too soon?

### 2/5 — Crashed and had to completely redo!!

*2020-01-09, version 1.2.0*

Yes, this is the best stash app I’ve found. However, it is far from perfect. Today I had to spend hours redoing my entire tracking because the app crashed and when it restored, it put milk back in my refrigerator that had been removed over a month ago. The freezer seems to be fine for now, but I’m going to have to recheck everything in there and that could take days. Now my graph is inaccurate as well as it shows that I’ve declined my milk supply when I’ve actually been doing the opposite. Very frustrating.

### 3/5 — Inaccurate Expiry, Difficult for Catchup

*2019-08-22, version 1.2.0*

I’ve got a -23deg deep freeze in which according to all lactation consultants I’ve spoken to can keep milk safe for 10months or more, yet the app likes to put a big red flag on anything older than 2 months. This is inaccurate.

As well, trying to go back and catalogue is difficult because the Day/time entry is a scroll wheel that defaults to today’s date. Maybe great if you’re doing this from the start, but an extreme pain if you’re 2-3 months in and having to catalogue 100s of bags from when you started.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Max 160ml volumes

*2024-04-20*

Can only add a max of 160ml to stash

### 1/5 — Soo many glitches

*2023-06-23*

Not worth your time this app has soo many glitches. Doubles the transactions of your pumps, bags in storage locations etc so it doesn’t show true and accurate records. Reverted back to the good old pen and paper! Don’t use.

### 1/5 — It was great until the app stopped working

*2020-10-06*

The app encouraged me to build my milk stash but now I kept getting “unable to communicate with milk stash servers”. Tried to contact them but the email bounced back saying it does not exist. So I am not able to access my stash anymore.

### 1/5 — Update NEEDED

*2020-06-06, version 1.2.0*

I love the idea of this app! Let’s you have a freezer stash and a refrigerator stash so you really know how much milk you have. I will close the app with the correct amount - next time I open it there’s multiple old bottles added to my refrigerator stash making my count completely off! Then I have no idea how many bottles I actually have in the fridge. I would love to continue using this app however I’ve had to fix this problem several times and just twice today so I will have to find a different way to track my milk supply.

### 1/5 — Perfect until it’s not.

*2019-08-28, version 1.2.0*

I loved this app. It was relatively easy to use and I felt confident in its ability to track both pumping output and effectively manage my stockpiles. But I have sadly lost that confidence. Twice now it has inexplicably forgot the past several days actions and put bottles back in the fridge that we’re in the freezer and now show as expired. It’s left me wondering how to fix the problem. Twice I deleted everything and started over, manually entering every bag in my freezer. But this has left the overall trend of output haywire as it can no longer tell what days I met my supply goals. 

I have reached out to the developers with no response. 

I love the app, but unfortunately this happening for the third time is too much and i will find another app. At this point, I think a simple spreadsheet would be better and more reliable.

### 1/5 — Crashes and brings back old data

*2019-08-27, version 1.2.0*

The app keeps crashing and bringing bags that have previously been removed back into my stash. I have about 560 ounces stored, but all of a sudden it will say I have almost 3000. I contacted for assistance but they did not respond. I have had to manually delete each bag. The only reason I don’t get another app is because it is easier to delete each bag than it is to load each bag manually into another one. If you are looking for an app to start tracking your stash, find another one.

### 1/5 — still glitching

*2019-03-30*

Started well, but about a day in it kept changing my input data - specifically the amount pumped.
Had to keep changing it back, but noticed that it then changed again

### 1/5 — Not accurate!

*2019-03-15, version 1.2.0*

I loved the app at the beginning because it’s an effecient way to track you milk supply. However, when I stopped pumping and started to feed my baby with the milk from the stash, I noticed that the count was not accurate. It begun to readd the bags that I’ve already removed and created duplicate entries. There were days that I stored 40oz of milk each day, but in reality I have never pumped that much. My max was 25oz. Because of this issue, it defeats the purpose of the app. So disappointing..

### 1/5 — Annoying glitches

*2019-02-28*

This would be great if it worked properly.. one issue is that every time I log my volume eg. 70mLs, it records 7 mLs and I have to go in and change it manually. Also half the time it records an extra session for no reason with 0mLs and I have to delete it. if I make a change in the pumping section, I have to go and manually change the milk storage section too. I have been using it for two days and I’m ready to chuck it in.

### 2/5 — Bugged

*2023-05-12*

Tripled my stash numbers and can only delete each bag one by one and gives me an error if I do it too quickly. Had been working fine before that

### 5/5 — 4 months using this app…

*2024-08-21*

Before I started using this app I was having such a hard time keeping up with how much milk I’d pumped and stored between my home freezer and the daycare freezer. This app makes it SO easy. I can transfer what I take to the day care into that freezer’s stash in the app, and then remove bags as they’re being fed at day care so I always know exactly how much I have in each location. It even helped one day when there was a mishap at the day care where they thought they had no milk for my child for the day because someone else had shoved my milk all the way in the back of the freezer behind other things. Highly recommend for anyone especially if you’ve got milk stored in multiple places.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2023-09-04*

Amazing app!! Has really helped me keep track of my supply and will send notifications.

My only suggestion would be being able to see the time of day the milk was pumped in the list (rather than clicking on it) so I can see what morning or night milk I have easily, or maybe being able to assign different colours to the records so you could make your own system

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-02-27, version 1.2.0*

With my second baby, I knew I wanted to keep better track of our freezer stash. This app is amazing. It is so easy to use, and It automatically calculates what we have in storage to the number of days of supply, which can be adjusted as your baby’s eating habits change! And it will just recalculate for you. Transferring bags from the freezer to the deep freezer is also easy. This app is a game changer and very satisfying to use.

### 5/5 — Best app for tracking milk stash but needs update

*2022-02-19*

Thank you so much for the amazing app but it’s getting buggy lately. Please please release an update to fix it. I’ve downloaded so many other pumping/stash app but none of them comes even close to the easy of use, great appearance, and functionality (while still being simple) of this app. Really hoping to see a new update soon. A huge thanks and appreciation to the dev team

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2021-08-31, version 1.2.0*

I am (almost - we nurse sometimes!) exclusively pumping for twins and tried a few apps before finding this one. I absolutely like it best of the three I tried and it’s 100% free! You can set different stash locations, storage parameters, etc., but I think my favorite feature is the pump timer and ability to track which breast is producing what. This app has really taken some of the headache and anxiety away from trying to pump for twins and maintaining a stash (or several!). I have my fridge stash that we pull from day-to-day, a freezer stash for medium term storage, and a deep freeze for longer term, but you can create unlimited stashes to track. A+ app.

### 5/5 — Working Mama’s Dream

*2020-08-06, version 1.2.0*

Hello!! Where have you been all of my [baby’s] life?! This app has everything that the dozens of tracking apps that I’ve since deleted have been missing. Not only does this app help me to see the big picture (how many days worth of liquid goodness is in my entire stash) but also helps me to manage the day to day while I’m at work. My favorite feature? Probably the “Cooler Stash” or just the separate stashes in general. Because #firstworldproblems I do have one request: the ability to combine or marry bottles. Specifically portions of a bottle. Example: I have 1.5 bottles in my fridge stash. Dad feeds one bottle while I’m at work and I bring home .75 bottle at lunch time. I would like to be able to combine .5 of the cooler stash bottle to the .5 remaining in my fridge. I can do this by changing the amounts in the individual bottles but would LOVE a more seamless process. Thanks for all of your hard work on developing this app aaaaaand for offering it for free 🤗

### 5/5 — Love this app!!

*2020-05-01, version 1.2.0*

I used this app to track my “milk stash” for my first little one. Never deleted it off my phone, and now am using it for baby number 2! I love that you can have multiple “stashes”. For the first baby, I had a work stash, deep freezer stash, and refrigerator stash. It tracks by either date added or expiration date of the milk. You can mass move milk bags from one stash to the other.  I love that it tells you both the total amount of milk you have and how many days that milk would last your baby.  It is just overall an awesome app!

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2020-04-05, version 1.2.0*

I just use this to track my daily output. Click “start new pumping session,” input the oz or mL (you can easily change back and forth in settings), save, and done! Other free apps only give you like 25 or 50 entries, but I’ve been using this for a couple months and haven’t hit any limits. Easy to use and just what I needed!

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2020-02-02, version 1.2.0*

This app is amazing and I’m shocked that it’s free. I’m exclusively pumping for my preemie and being able to track the ounces pumped per day, the time pumped, plus being able to add to my stash has really taken the headache out of EPing. Plus the app calculates how long your stash will take you when you decide to wean. I highly recommend this to anyone who is pumping. Plus the interface is really clean and simple to use. I have no complaints!!

### 5/5 — Great for working moms!

*2019-05-02, version 1.2.0*

I love this app for managing what I pump at work, have in my freezer vs fridge, and what is sent to daycare. I don’t know how I would keep track of my multiple “stashes” otherwise. This is great for following stats of how often and how much you pump also. Highly recommend!
