You should also be able to manually add sessions. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We are trying to add the features of account sharing in our upcoming releases soon. The feature to add sessions manually already exist, but we will strive to make it more obvious how to do so ### 4/5 — Improvements Needed *2025-04-13* Great app but dark mode doesn’t change text color in all contexts and the baby asleep baby awake buttons become invisible. Also needs widgets for Home Screen, Apple Watch, control center **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. We will look into the issues on dark mode and strive to fix them as soon as possible. We are glad that you liked the app otherwise and this was useful for you Sleep well :) ### 4/5 — I like it so far but have some suggestion… *2024-11-07* I just started sleep training my 6 months old three days ago and decided Iwanted a resource so I don’t have to stress about timing too. So far I like the all but wish it would keep track of time so have time stamps when you first lay the baby down to the end when they wake up so you can keep track of what times. Also I don’t like how after you check on your baby it goes to baby being awake and it just keeps the timer as is so each time I check on my crying baby it’s 1 second then 2 then 3. I guess I just wish it was just better integrated with times and switched from each timer better. It would also be nice to have a consistent timer that you can see no matter what page you are on so you can see how long it’s been rather than seeing how many sessions you at and adding up all the time. Other than that it’s a great resource in tracking your baby sleeps. I think for paying 3$ for an app where there’s so many different ones that are free adding time stamps and a consistent timer isn’t unreasonable. If they added those I would change my rating to a 5 star. Update: all of the sudden the tutorial comes up every time you open the app which is annoying to skip it each time ### 4/5 — I like it so far but have some suggestion… *2024-10-23* I just started sleep training my 6 months old three days ago and decided Iwanted a resource so I don’t have to stress about timing too.

It also shows progress over the days as the baby begins to get the hang of things which was super nice to see! I definitely recommend ### 5/5 — Lifesaver for Exhausted Parents *2025-07-07* I can't recommend this sleep trainer app enough! As a first-time parent struggling with sleepless nights, I was hesitant to try the Ferber method, but the app made the entire process so easy to follow and reassuring.The step-by-step guidance, customizable check-in intervals, helped us stay consistent and confident throughout the training. Within just a few nights, we started seeing real progress our baby was falling asleep independently and sleeping for longer stretches. If you're considering gentle sleep training using the Ferber method, this app is a game-changer. It’s not just a tool it’s a support system for tired parents who need structure and hope. Totally worth it! ### 5/5 — Highly recommend! *2024-02-17* This app is perfect if you are sleep training. It took all the work out of tracking the time for checkin. It is very encouraging to see the charts each day so that you can see your baby is making progress. ### 5/5 — Worth it *2024-01-28* Honestly I’m already too tired to keep track. I’m glad I got this, it helped me keep track of her progress and helped me time her cries. Knowing it’s gonna be hard. Smart someone made this app. ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-01-04* Very easy to use. Simple and keeps you on track for what could be an emotional and difficult journey. I love seeing the progress in bar charts and being able to celebrate in the mornings. Very helpful!! ### 5/5 — Works like a charm! *2023-09-14* I cannot give this app enough praise. We used this app when my son was 5 months old and sleep trained him quickly. The app is so straightforward and gives encouraging messages along the way which I found so comforting. Our son was sleep trained in a matter of days. We have utilized the app a couple of times since then (he is now 14 months) during sleep regressions. We usually only need to use the app for a couple of nights and he is back on track. He is an amazing sleeper and we owe it all to this app! I’ve recommended it to others and they all have had success as well! ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Life changing! *2022-10-26* My pediatrician recommended to start sleep training my son at 4 months because he was a healthy weight, was just getting over the 4 month regression and was happy and lively during the day. I was so scared to start! This app helped me feel like I had a sense of knowing what I was doing and really following the method correctly. It had little encouraging notes every time the baby would be crying and helped me to remember this was helping - not hurting - my baby. The first night I couldn’t believe he actually fell asleep! I was able to be consistent and keep track of time easily with the timer in this app. I can’t wait to see his progress in the activity tracker as we complete his training! **Developer response:** Dear Mom, Lovely to hear your experience with this app and the sleep training. Thank you for taking the time. Much appreciated! Good luck and happy sleeping! Love from the Ferber Sleep trainer team! ### 5/5 — Very helpful *2021-05-23* 5/5 would rate it higher if I could. Really great app for a tired and nervous mum wanting to start sleep training. Told me everything I needed to know. Gave me an email for support in regards to sleep training AND the app also gives you reassurance and tells you to keep up the good work which is so needed when listening to your baby cry. Fantastic app, thank you so much. I am one happy mumma! **Developer response:** Dear Addy-kay, Thank you for the lovely review. We are glad that this helped you. This is the kind of feedback which keeps motivating our team to making more of such apps and improving this one. Ferber Sleep Trainer team ### 5/5 — Amazing support from this app. Just wonderful *2021-04-21* Just love the guidance I got from this app. I wish I had found it earlier. Just on day 3 and my darling daughter is asleep in 4 mins. Love the graphs by the way and the tip about the blanket. Now when I give her the blanket she is already ready to sleep! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
