Amazing

I have used this for 3 of 4 children and I love searching and finding how to serve foods. It’s so easy to just give them what we are eating for dinner when I know how to serve it. My kids have loved eating food and not just purees so this was a game changer! I wish I had it for my first

Impossible to delete account!

If you want to have a permanent account with your baby’s data, this is the app for you.

Don’t do the “free” trial

It says you can cancel anytime during the free trial but then they make impossible. Charged my card $109 for a year subscription and won’t answer their emails. I emailed them before my card was even charged and got only an AI response that someone would be in touch. That was a week ago now.

Subscription Pricing and Paywall

The app seems super helpful but everything is behind a subscription wall. It would be nice if there was a bit more access on the free version. Paying $20 a month seems a bit high. Most apps with subscriptions are still able to be used without or are very clear that you need to pay to use. This one doesn’t even allow basic tracking of what your baby has tried.

So bummed about the price

I love this app. I’m still giving it a high review because I do think the content is great. I’ve been bragging about this app to all of my patients over the years (I treat pregnant and postpartum women), telling them it was only $9 or $10 for a whole year. I used it religiously with my first son 3 years ago for the first 1.5 years, and I was fully prepared to make the purchase again for my new infant who’s just starting solids, but now it’s $100 for the whole year? That’s insane. That’s 10x more than what it used to be. I know a lot of the features are still there without paying so I’m just going to go with that, but I’m very disappointed and will no longer brag about how affordable this app is. I feel bad for misleading patients. I understand that businesses have to make money, but $100 feels predatory on scared parents feeding their babies for the first time.

Love this app!

We love solid starts for our kids! Makes introducing food so easy. I recommend it to all new parents!

Not free

Requires a $100/yr subscription. This is not disclosed until after you create an account, give them your email, and give them your child’s name and age. Apple should pull this app for collecting personal info before disclosing that payment is required.

Sub needed for basically the whole app

Found this really frustrating- everything i needed to know was extra and would only be unlocked with a subscription. Could’ve been a 5 star app if literally anything other than the CPR videos and generic food information was available. This app is fine if you’re looking to add another subscription to your life but i was very disappointed.

Pay wall

Can’t do anything without paying for it, no point even downloading the free version.

Issues with cancelling subscription

Money not refunded in full even after cancelling subscription within weeks in advance

Disappointed

I guess was hoping the app would help make it easy to feed my family and my baby and make less work overall for me. It’s not like that. You can’t really plug in the dish you want to make and get a baby family version with chocking and nnutirion advice for baby. It’s good for about the 6-9 mth hump tells you how to cut stuff. But don’t expect it will provide much benefit after. Its really gonna come down to your creativity. You not gonna have what the app calls for on hand so it’s an extra step to make dinner off their recipes not accessible food. Culturally your family may not respond to the recipes. Lots of room for improvement. Maybe just pay a couple mths when starting off definitely don’t waste money continuing. It’s literally solid starts not for nutrition after.

Great at first

It was helpful as we were starting solids, but stopped working and didn’t guide me through introduction of all allergens from their own list.

Love

I used this with my daughter who is now 4 and with our second! Literally love this app

Helpful

Appreciate how much help it provides and clear instructions on how to cook and serve depending on age. Gave me confidence to not only feed my baby but teach her how to eat. It’s worth it.

So helpful

I recently had an issue with the app & the developers reached out, which I very much appreciate! The issue got fixed. I love this app. It’s so easy to use and navigate. And I really like the videos of foods being eaten; it makes me feel more comfortable and confident feeding certain foods to my baby!

Now everything has a paywall

Lifetime subscription my behind!!! I paid for this in 2023 for a “lifetime subscription” and now every feature I want to use is paywalled. You guys are greedy and I’ll never use your app again.

Starting solids made easy

Love this app and how simple and reassuring it was to reference when introducing food to my son.

Busy

Great idea for an app/product but app very busy and not the most intuitive/user friendly to use. AI feature has been incorrect grammatically/doesn’t make sense.
