### 3/5 — Overall good, but…

*2026-08-30, version 8.5.0*

App is great, only thing missing is recording pump timing. I do both and keeping milk supply up depends on how often milk is expressed and I want to my baby’s feeds based on expression, not just when he ate.

### 2/5 — Downhill

*2026-08-18, version 8.5.0*

I used this app for pregnancy and post-partum 4 years ago. The content/information was helpful, evidence based and current. Now using it again post-partum and the content seems generic and written by AI. No actual guidelines or recommendations, a lot of fluff. Okay app for basic tracking of  breastfeeding and naps, but that’s all I find useful now.

### 3/5 — Love using, but doesn’t stay updated / accurate

*2026-03-09, version 8.2.0*

I love this app and use it everyday during the newborn and first year of my babies lives! It has great tracking options for feeding, etc. the reason for my star rating is the feeding options do breast feeding do not stay updated and accurate. The side used last is consistently wrong which can throw me off and make me have to look back in the logs to check which side I actually fed from last. Other than that flaw I love the features.

### 4/5 — LOVE LOVE IT!

*2026-02-05, version 8.1.0*

Love this app, used it for both my girls. Just one small ask please add in somewhere a mum can log the time and the amount she pumped

### 4/5 — I Love Ovia and I wish…

*2025-08-26, version 7.5.0*

I am an Ovia fan! I used the regular Ovia to track my cycle, then Ovia pregnancy for the cool week by week updates while pregnant, and now I use Ovia parenting mostly for the logs. I track everything- how long baby nurses, what time I have the last bottle, length of naps, and number of soiled diapers. But, with that being said, I wish that there was a way to log pumping sessions. For a momma who does a combination of breastfeeding, nursing and supplementing with formula, I need to know when I pumped and how many ounces I produced when I pumped. I also don’t like that I often need to swipe down on the screen in order for it to refresh and give me the accurate times of the events on my log. Ovia, I love you dearly but please update these two things!

### 4/5 — Good but could be better.

*2025-06-30, version 7.3.0*

The app is great. You are able to track a lot of great things. But I find it lags a little sometimes when I’m trying to hit a button to log something quickly. I also think itd be nice to be able to edit a feed or sleep once submitted. And I find there’s a gap in that if you do pump there’s no way to track that in this app. I have to track it in a different one. But for what the app does have to offer I would still recommend.

### 4/5 — Wish it was darker

*2025-02-26, version 6.20.0*

The app is exactly what you’d need if you want to keep track of diapers and feeds. It does have helpful tips and milestone markers. My mahout complaint though— it doesn’t have a dark mode. Turning this app on at 4am for a feed is the worst, even with brightness all the way down.

### 2/5 — Not for large families

*2025-02-24, version 6.20.0*

I love and have used the other trackers that Ovia has. After having my last baby I decided to use this one to track feedings and other things. Well, I can’t. Not if I add all of my children to the app. It will only allow up to 5 that I can track. So I cannot track any of the things I wanted to with my new baby, the whole point in gettting the app. I’m sure it’s great for new moms, but not me.

### 3/5 — Needs corrected age option

*2025-01-26, version 6.19.0*

I have loved all the ovia apps. I’ve used them from when I was trying to get pregnant, to being pregnant, and now with my child. 

However, while this app provides great information I use it far less because they do not have a corrected age option for if you have a preemie. My baby was 11 weeks early. She is technically 4.5 months old and I am seeing all the milestones for that age, when really I need the milestones for a 2 month old due to her being premature. I Hope in the future they can add a corrected age option while also keeping the child’s real age so you can get more accurate tips without having to change your child’s age.

### 4/5 — Great app, but needs updates

*2025-01-21, version 6.19.0*

We are using this app to keep track of when we are feeding our baby, but we have a hard time keeping track of her vitamins. This app needs a place to add medicine/vitamins to track them, and entries should be editable so you don’t have to delete and redo them

### 4/5 — Helpful but limited functionality.

*2025-01-07, version 6.18.0*

My wife and I love this app but we wish it could track medication administration and which new foods have been introduced. A feature to see which over-the-counter meds are safe to use while breast feeding would be nice. The Ovia pregnancy app had that for what was safe during pregnancy. 
It also can’t be the only app you use as parents, because you can’t find logged data easily or document doctor’s appointments or vaccines. 
We like the milestone feature, but again, once the data is logged you have to search each day to find it again in the future. We also like all the education and mental health support materials it provides. Very helpful as first time parents.

### 3/5 — Good app, but has room for improvement

*2024-12-23, version 6.18.0*

It does have a lot of good information, however, the tracking of things such as breast pumping or showing a log of the daily or weekly breast-feeding patterns and sleep patterns viewable in other apps. Other apps allow you to see the timer for feeding on the Home Screen at the top of the phone. I wish this app had some of these better features so I could stick to the OVIA brand for app with newborn.

### 4/5 — LOVE This Parenting App

*2024-12-20, version 6.18.0*

Wonderful way to keep track of baby’s health, growth, and development as well as learning parenting skills and techniques. Also, encourages keeping tabs on our own heath as parents. 

Ideas for improvement: option at the top of app, along with recording feedings and diaper changes, for tracking medications for our littles (dosage given and which medication), and an option for setting medication reminders.

### 4/5 — Missing pumping function

*2024-12-01, version 6.17.0*

Almost perfect. Love the calendar view and cute milestones. Please add pumping tracking and it would be perfect! Almost every other popular baby apps have it!

### 3/5 — It gets the job done

*2024-10-05, version 6.15.0*

What bothers me the most is that it doesn’t have a Dark Mode option which makes very painful to look at night.
The layout is also early-2000’s style but it gets the job done I guess. 
I really like that the app shows you very useful and interesting information and articles daily.

### 4/5 — Update

*2024-09-17, version 6.14.0*

Please please please make a night time option for this app! As a first time mom I am religiously timing feeds, especially through the night, but my baby and I are blinded every time I open the app to time. An option to set this app as a dark version would be amazing.

### 1/5 — Meh

*2026-02-17, version 8.2.0*

Terrible Support Trying to track with my partner was ditched half way through help. No assistance in a week. Important tracking time for a newborn

### 1/5 — Bad customer service

*2025-03-25, version 6.20.0*

Customer service is non existent. I would have given 5 stars as I love the ap but can’t invite my husband and nanny in the ap

### 1/5 — App is extremely buggy

*2024-11-21, version 6.17.0*

been using this app since 2021 for both our children and it’s always been buggy. Freezes, buttons don’t work, things select and unselect without being prompted, impossible to scroll without bringing down the device drop down menu, etc. not worth the headache for simple tracking of feeding its equally as convenient to just put the data in a shared note

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2024-09-07, version 6.14.0*

Not very good app use glow baby for ease and best app interface

### 1/5 — New update

*2024-08-29, version 6.14.0*

New update 2 days ago and it keeps crashing and will not let me open app.

### 1/5 — Political

*2024-07-01, version 6.12.0*

Used Ovia for a while through pregnancy and now as a parent and then started seeing political articles in my baby app. Are you freaking kidding me? Should not have to see articles such as tips to raising a gender fluid baby. Also the app crashes constantly. Putting in breastfeeding is a two step process while being littered with lots of adds. Then there is no dark mode so there are too many problems to keep using it even though it’s free.

### 1/5 — Greatly disappointed

*2024-06-08, version 6.11.0*

Although I greatly benefited from the Ovia Pregnancy app, I was disappointed by the parenting version. 90% of the articles on my feed pertained to returning to work and had very little to do with…parenting. 

I was further disappointed when an article by the title of “Managing your period as a trans, genderqueer, or non-binary person” appeared on my timeline. Not only does this have nothing to do with parenting, it also falls short of being remotely substantiated by medical research or reality. The title alone is bizarre and ridiculous. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement. However, I shouldn’t have been surprised.

### 1/5 — Cannot sign in to app

*2024-03-27, version 6.9.0*

I used the Ovia pregnancy app and loved it so I downloaded this one. I have tried to sign in multiple times but when I put in my daughters birthday it says it’s an invalid date. I have checked the format and it is correct. I would love to be able to sign in because I’m sure the app is great once I can make an account.

### 1/5 — Okay.

*2024-01-17, version 6.6.0*

I like the app okay until it glitched and I haven’t been able to use it for the past 4 or 5 hours.

### 1/5 — Crashed twice in 5 weeks

*2024-01-17, version 6.6.0*

This app has crashed on me twice in 5 weeks. It’s super frustrating when I have brain fog from caring for a new born and rely on this app for tracking feeds and diapers.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — .

*2026-06-08, version 8.5.0*

Very good app 😊😁

### 5/5 — Favorite PP app

*2026-05-28, version 8.5.0*

I love this app. It makes feed/sleep tracking easy and you can track milestones and log diaper changes, weight and height and more!

### 5/5 — Best for Tracking in the Baby's First Year

*2025-10-24, version 7.7.0*

This app is a gem to me! It's helped me better understand child development and milestones while also keeping track of my children's day to day care. It amazes me how thought out this app was formulated. I rave about it to other mothers and moms-to-be.

### 5/5 — Perfect for Postpartum!

*2025-08-15, version 7.4.0*

I love this app for postpartum and use it daily to track breastfeeding. There is a huge variety of articles which are helpful and the support with Ovia+ is absolutely wonderful! I’m using it for the second time with my second kid. My only suggestion would be to make it so a person can use the app to track breastfeeding from the lock screen and their Apple Watch! That would make this app perfect!

### 5/5 — Mucha información valiosa y actualizada

*2025-05-16, version 7.1.0*

Me gusta mucho la app, el poco tiempo libre que tengo lo uso para leer esta app porque te da mucha información oportuna, a veces voy al pediatra y me dice info que ya leí en la aplicación o a los pocos días aparece la información. Vale mucho la pena tomarte el tiempo para leer la información que brinda, sobretodo una que es mamá primeriza.

### 5/5 — Easy breast feeding tracker

*2025-02-08, version 6.20.0*

Love the layout, and simplicity of it as well as the ability to edit the feed before submitting. This my 2nd time using this app specifically for recording baby’s feeds and diapers. I’ve tried other apps just to make sure there weren’t better options and there wasn’t!

### 5/5 — Add features

*2025-02-03, version 6.19.0*

I love the app!! Absolutely helpful to log everything but i feel you need to add more features like start and stop timers for feeding on Home Screen so that even phone was locked we can stop/ push / resume the timer 
Others feature like breast pumping log / set schedule for feeding and pumping / set an schedule for any thing related to baby / etc etc..

### 5/5 — Def recommend

*2024-11-27, version 6.17.0*

I downloaded the pregnancy version of this app when I was about 6 weeks pregnant and I fell in love with it. I loved reading all the facts and information it provided that I had to download this one as soon as baby arrived.
It’s not only helpful as a first time parent but also so fun to read of any current and upcoming milestones. The great advice you receive is also very helpful.
To summarize I def recommend this app to any parent.

### 5/5 — Great app for milestones

*2024-11-05, version 6.16.0*

Love the milestones checklist and the weekly development updates.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-10-23, version 6.16.0*

This app is amazing!! I love it
