I wish it would show all the feedings in the same area as we use a combo of pumping and direct feeding and trying to keep track of times gets cumbersome. I am also having an issue with inviting my husband to be allowed to “share” the app with me and log what he does for her. I have contacted the developer and they say they are looking into it so we will see how long it takes to fix. ### 4/5 — Great! Easy to use *2021-06-28, version 2.9* I love how easy it is to Use and the articles are wonderful. I do wish it continued though past age 2. And out new information/articles out, since I have used it for all three of my babies. ### 3/5 — Glitchy and incomplete *2020-03-31, version 2.7* The app routinely opens without the navigation buttons at the bottom and has to be completely closed to reset. It also lacks a report export function to see feeding totals over the course of days - it’s extremely inconvenient to navigate between days’ data (multiple clicks and whole screens). Also, entering the PIN every 5 seconds is annoying, especially for the breastfeed timer. Other apps are able to stay logged in, please figure this out, you’re not a bank with my secure info on file... ### 3/5 — Like the app but articles are missing *2019-10-24, version 2.4* Lots of good stuff, but there are much needed articles that are missing. On my main page, I see “Baby Development: Your 1-month-old”, but when I click on it, there’s nothing there except the source/written by info. Probably keep this pending what I find on other apps, because there’s a great search feature and I love being able to look up my weird questions... but I need my Development articles. ### 4/5 — I love this, but... *2019-05-14, version 2.4* ...when I track when I nurse my son I have to navigate through a bunch of options to find out what side I last fed him from. Can you add a “last side fed from” information somewhere on the nursing tab? That would be super helpful! ### 3/5 — Love the app, hate the crashing *2019-01-27, version 2.4* Great app for tracking things with baby, but it crashes and closes on me all the time. That is frustrating when trying to track breastfeeding. Hopefully that can get fixed because otherwise I love the features. ### 2/5 — Easier to view Trackings *2018-08-22, version 2.3.6* Just downloaded. Like the looks so far, but would like to be able to SEE all of the Tracker information in order of time as they happen. Instead of being organized by diaper change, feeding, and naps... it should show all the activities in a row with how they happened during the day. I.e.- 8:00a diaper change, then 8:30 feeding, then 9:00 nap, then 10:00 wake up, then 10:30 diaper change. ### 4/5 — Love it! *2018-07-03, version 2.3.6* I love all the trackers and the quick tips. My favorite component having the widget available for quick access to see when my baby are last. My husband and I use the trackers on our own phones and it is great to share the information. Something I would like is for the widget to refresh after my husband uses it on his phone. Otherwise, the app is great and helpful! ### 3/5 — Bummed :( *2018-03-28, version 2.3.5* I’ve had this app for almost 4 yrs and logged both my kids growth. I recently upgraded my phone and discovered both kid files were wiped out!!! I’m so upset I didn’t write the info down but I honestly thought the info would still be there like all other apps. Anyone know how I can find it? I’m so sad! ### 4/5 — Almost there *2017-11-16, version 2.3.5* Love the app, use it constantly and we have sitters and grandparents that use the app when they babysit. Just wish that if I set a timer, another user could stop it. Sometimes data entered by another user isn’t visible right away when using a different phone. Seems to need time to update. Also, if I have the app open too long on the background, the menu icons disappear and I have close out and reopen to get to the tracker. ### 2/5 — Tries too hard to be everything *2017-11-12, version 2.3.5* I just want an app that tracks breastfeeding and diapers. For that simple need, this app falls short. It’s not intuitive to reach the nursing tracker, and I really don’t like how many steps it takes to reach the daily record so you know which side to start on. There also isn’t any way to track patterns (seems to be a common theme for these apps in general). You can barely make sense of the data for the last day - especially while sleep deprived! Also very glitchy. It keeps sending me back to the home page without warning, and as I said it’s hard enough to reach the timer as it is... In fairness their reminder setup is a good one, and if you’re interested in articles and advice that seems helpful. But I’m going to look elsewhere. ### 4/5 — Great app, can be buggy at times *2017-10-28, version 2.3.5* This is a great app for tracking your baby's feeding, diapers, and growth. It also has great informative articles timed to the age of your child. It can be somewhat buggy, the bottom toolbar with the different functions vanishes randomly on me at times, but this is resolved by closing and restarting the app. ### 3/5 — So far so good... *2017-10-18, version 2.3.5* Just started using the app about a week ago and so far we like it. It’s something me and my husband can share and keep track of everything together. I just wish it had a pumping tracker so I can keep track of what I pump. I had to download a separate app just for pumping😕. ### 2/5 — Seems glitchy *2017-09-21, version 2.3.5* I have been using this app for about 2 months now and I love it because I am able to track feeding schedules and I like timing how long my son has been eating for. The problem I find is that when I set the nursing timer and then exit out of the app to look at something else, the timer will reset back to zero as if I didn't start it. This has happened multiple times. At first I thought I was just not thinking clearly and must have forgotten to set it, but I have tested this out a few more times and it keeps happening. I found that I have to wait about 20 seconds before I can leave the timer screen and I have to keep checking back with it in order to make sure it's still working. This is extremely inconvenient especially for sleep deprived parents. ### 4/5 — A great big help! *2017-05-26, version 2.3.5* This app is very helpful for the times when you just can't remember when the last time you fed the baby or even if you did feed the baby lol. Also useful to know daily totals so that you can get an idea of how much your baby is taking in. Tracking diapers seems mundane but you'll notice that for doctor check ups it comes in handy. The only feature I wish it had was a button to track when or what days you gave the baby a bath. Sometimes it's easy to forget that. ### 4/5 — Easy to use but missing features *2017-05-23, version 2.3.5* Easy entry of info, but I'd love to see some tracking graphs as well as summary of last I putted info on main tracking page (for nursing and diapering in particular). Many other apps offer these features so I find this to be this app's downfall. ### 4/5 — Helpful *2017-05-16, version 2.3.5* So far this has been simple to use and helpful to track feedings and diaper changes. I do wish that during the pause on logging breast milk time it would let you switch breasts without having to start an all new timer. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t collaborate *2020-01-08, version 2.5.1* App seems great at first glance. However, after setting up our account and inputting baby info, the app would not let me add my wife via the “collaboration” option. I would receive “network connection error” via the app. I tried force closing the app, restarting my phone, using wifi and LTE data, and different emails. Nothing worked. App is useless to us unless we can both input and sync baby’s data. So we will be deleting and finding another app to use. ### 1/5 — Not sure how it got 4 stars *2019-12-22, version 2.5* This app does not work. Sure it may do some of the tracking and it does provide pertinent information about caring for a baby. But for me, the most important parts of it the app did not work. The photo library, being able to are other people so we can share the tracking of activities, and others. Wrote to their support and have not heard back after 48 hours. Not even an acknowledgement that they received my complaint. Do yourself a favor and get the "baby tracker" ### 1/5 — Not quite what you need. *2018-04-01, version 2.3.5* The reminder alert should start from the start time of the feeding , not the end. It’s also no good of an alert if it’s just a banner and not an alarm (timer with sounds). It also doesn’t seem to let you add how much was consumed in the nursing session so that you can add that to the amount the baby is eating. It also does not allow you have a separate pumping reminder. ### 1/5 — Little data analysis- and lots of glitches *2017-11-08, version 2.3.5* We chose this app because it has the ability for multiple users to enter data from Multiple devices- after using it for 2 months now- this is about the only good thing. We track all food and diaper activity. Every single bit. Yet- there is no way for me to see trends or an analysis. Aka - what's the average diapers per day? Can I get a graph depiction? There are really easy things to add to enhance- but this has nothing. And from WebMD I'd expect more. The worst one is the feeding though. Honestly? No way to see daily totals side by side- at least? I am impressed by the LACK of data analysis- which is the most important thing for new parents- KNOWING how their little one is doing. If we use the app- we need to be able to analyze the data. I will be looking for alternate apps and will manually transfer everything if I have to. That is how frustrated I am getting. For new parents- if you want to know your averages for your little one- don't waste time using this app- it does not provide you that option! Also- it glitches. We have lost records because of it and - had some unfortunate "midnight discussions" about not logging information- when it turns out they had! ### 1/5 — Does not sync well *2017-04-01, version 2.3.5* I downloaded this app because it was compatible with my Apple Watch and iPhone. They don't communicate with each other. If I log a nursing session on my watch, it doesn't show up on my phone. I also was excited about the nursing notification option. Where you can tell it to send you a notification at whatever time increments you desire (1 hr, 2 hrs, 3 hrs) after last feeding. It never updated or synchronize based upon the last feeding. Pretty useless app. ### 1/5 — Erases input *2017-03-15, version 2.3.5* Ap worked well for tracking tools up until two months ago. It started deleting my data right after I input. Sometimes it will randomly reappear but not always. Very frustrating when I don't know how much/when my baby has eaten or napped! I emailed them a month ago and it's still not fixed! This was by far my favorite app for tracks by tools until it stopped working! My baby is nine months old and it just randomly stopped working two months ago! Please fix it so I can use it again, fir now going with another ap! ### 1/5 — Annoying and buggy *2016-12-28, version 2.3.5* My wife and I have used this for the last six months to track our baby's diapers and bottles. The one shining feature is the ability to sync between phones. That doesn't make up for the terrible input controls. See, every time you input a bottle you're presented with a scroll wheel control. This is fine if you're tracking in oz, I suppose, but we track in ml. There are two wheels, one for the number and one for ml or oz. We have to pick ml every time because there no way to set a default, and if you accidentally bump the wrong spot on the control it switches back to oz and you have to re-scroll all the way from zero to 180 or whatever. Super annoying. A number pad would be so much easier to use. This app also lacks any sort of reasonable reporting or export. The most you can see is a day at one time and there is no way to see, for example, a graph of total eaten by day over the past week. There's no way to get a spreadsheet of the data either, so even if you wanted to make a graph in excel it's impossible. Oh, and in a recent version they added ads that cover the input control sometimes but not always. Extremely annoying at 2am. ### 2/5 — Not great for co-parenting *2023-01-10, version 3.3* Since downloading this 6 months ago, my husband and I have never once been able to “collaborate” as the app intended. This means we have shared one log-in, so that at least we could both be logging diapers and feedings (using combo of nursing and bottles). This has led to bugginess in entries getting either lost or double-counted, as well as our apps recently no longer updating at all with the information from the other one. It’s incredibly frustrating. ### 2/5 — Great features but… *2021-07-29, version 2.9* I was very excited about the collaboration feature of this app, but after many, many tries, it will not send because I cannot select the baby in the invite form. The whole reason I downloaded this app was the collaboration feature. ### 2/5 — Misogynistic & Outdated Articles *2021-03-04, version 2.8* Fantastic for general medical advise, but don’t expect anything modern from the recommended articles. For example, ‘Sex life after baby’ assumes Herero couples & recommends getting Dad to watch the baby for a few minutes so Mom can rest to get in the mood. Seriously? Bribe your husband into helping care for his child with sex... that alone is enough to make me delete this app, but other articles are equally as outdated & infuriating to read. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great baby app *2021-10-02, version 3.0* I love this app. Second baby using it. I like that I can add the naps from daycare after the fact to see the total sleep. And also the nursing total if there is a growth spurt or cluster feeding. ### 5/5 — Grandparents love this app *2019-03-21, version 2.4* We started using this app about 2 years and 4 months ago when my daughter had her little boy. At the present her little girl is 6 months and it has proved to be an invaluable source of information. All 4 grandparents use it on their phones and at any time when babysitting you have information regarding feeding, diaper changes and sleep. I would and have recommended this to anyone that has small children. ### 5/5 — Very useful *2018-05-24, version 2.3.6* This is a very helpful app. Especially when he pediatrician asks about his feeding and diapers that day for what he’s fine so far! As a new mother with a hormonal imbalance and was unable to produce I still like the option for the nursing button for breast feeding mothers! Very awesome. ### 5/5 — Easy to use! *2017-07-18, version 2.3.5* I love this app! After having a newborn the doctors always ask you a million questions about how much you nurse, how many diapers she goes through, etc. This app gives you a good and easy way to keep track! Love it! ### 5/5 — Very convenient *2017-06-25, version 2.3.5* This app has really helped me out keeping track of my daughters feedings, diapers, and naps. I always have my phone on me so it makes things a lot easier than trying to write them all down. ### 5/5 — Great app for new parents *2017-06-01, version 2.3.5* We are first time parents and this app helped a lot as we both tried to split baby duties. We each could have our own app on our phones and everything would sync ### 5/5 — Mommy Brain Helper *2017-04-10, version 2.3.5* With a new baby on your hands you will want something to help remind you when the last feeding or nap was to help keep you sane and baby happy. The last thing you want to have to remember on top of everything else is sleep cycles, diapers etc. bonus the app can be shared with your partner so when one takes over they're not lost. Very helpful at wellness checkups too! ### 5/5 — Love the syncing capability! *2017-04-09, version 2.3.5* My husband and love this app for tracking diapers and feeds. The one thing that is really great is that both of us can input into the same account from different phones. ### 5/5 — Momma *2017-03-24, version 2.3.5* My baby just turned one year. And reflecting upon her first year, WebMD baby app has been the absolute best decision I made; tracking her daily schedule and using the memory book to upload photos has helped me to stay organized in all the chaos of the first year. I undoubtedly recommend using the app for not only tracking but also for the educational articles and weekly updates. ### 5/5 — Best baby tracking app *2017-03-21, version 2.3.5* This has been the best tracking app we have found yet - specially for tracking via multiple devices. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
