### 1/5 — Parental Advisory

*2024-09-27, version 4.0.3*

App is broken garbage

### 5/5 — Wonderful way to connect with other parents

*2023-11-27, version 4.0.3*

I love this app and I appreciate being able to hear from other parents and connect on a wide range of parenting topics.

### 1/5 — Stuck

*2020-02-21, version 3.0.1*

I’m stuck on the city portion of the sign up process. It won’t allow me to navigate anywhere else. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. I can’t find the option to contact support. Really bummed.

### 3/5 — New update logged me out

*2019-02-09, version 3.0.1*

The new update logged me out and not been able to log back in since. Curious what it did and the update was supposed to be for iPhone X. 
Great app to talk about parenting topics, sell/buy or trade children’s items, find care/help etc.

### 5/5 — Fun place to be for parents.

*2017-07-15, version 2.4.1*

All the advice of parenting boards with a good dose of reality and needed sarcasm.

### 5/5 — Great app, great community

*2017-07-14, version 2.4.1*

Parenthoods keeps me sane.

### 5/5 — My favorite parenting related app!!

*2017-07-14, version 2.4.1*

This app is a lifesaver. The sense of community amongst the users is amazing and I'm on it all the time! I've gotten help with so many questions and issues that have come up in my first months as a parent. I'm so thankful for this app and it's creators!!

### 4/5 — Love this community

*2017-07-14, version 2.4.1*

Been using this app since it first came out and it's by far my favorite. Build your parent support group, buy/sell baby goods, organize a meetup or just vent over how your little darling is being a terror.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2017-07-14, version 2.4.1*

This app is a great way for parents to connect. The app is totally free - no ads even! The staff work tirelessly to make sure that everything is working and the hooders are happy with the community. Great job!
After the most current update, the app is even smoother than before. Plus, it's the best community I've found for parents of little ones.

### 5/5 — One of my favorite apps!

*2017-07-13, version 2.4.1*

I love love love Parenthoods! The community is supportive, diverse, and respectful. Also, I like that everyone on there is a parent (der) so you can post as many kid/family related things you want and everyone "gets" it--unlike other social media platforms where you know you're probably going to cause a few eye rolls on your third parenting related post in a day. Ha. 

Although I stick to the discussion threads, there are also activities and meet-ups on there so 'Hooders can get together and get to know each other IRL, too. AND, a classifieds section where you can sell your gear to others. 

It's rad, ok? Just download it---you won't be sorry!
