## What is Waves?

The calm, honest labor toolkit — built to be used half-asleep, one-handed, at 3am.

ONE-TAP CONTRACTION TIMER
Tap when a wave starts, tap when it ends. Duration and time-between are logged automatically. Started the timer late? Fell asleep mid-contraction? Edit or delete any entry — free, forever.

YOUR PATTERN, IN PLAIN LANGUAGE
"Last hour: every 6 min, lasting ~55s." Waves compares your last hour to the classic 5-1-1 rule with a threshold you agree with your midwife. Information, never commands — the decision stays with you and your care team.

KICK COUNTS FROM WEEK 28
Count to 10 movements daily, keep the streak, get a gentle reminder. The quiet habit your midwife will ask about.

BUILT FOR THE PARTNER TOO
During labor the phone is often in the partner's hands: giant tap targets, neutral wording, and a one-tap export of the whole log for the midwife.

NO ADS. EVER.
No weekly subscription. No account. Your contractions, kick counts and due date never leave your device. An optional one-time purchase adds calm extras: the hospital-bag checklist, a guided breathing pacer and the partner's guide.

Waves provides information, not medical advice. Always follow the guidance of your midwife or doctor.
