Baby Babble vs ORCA+

Baby Babble helps you track your baby's speech development, while also enabling you to quickly find, organize, and share your favorite videos. 100% Free. No Subscriptions, no in app purchases, no Ads. Ever wish you could: - Go back in time and listen to your little ones first words? - Hear the progression of "ba", to "baba" to "bottle" and everything in between - Make a playlist of all the times they ever said "I love you" - Keep track of all the words your child knows? - Differentiate between spontaneous words and proficient words? (great for those doctor visits) Well guess what, you're not alone!  My wife and I did too, and so Baby Babble was born. We've been using Baby Babble to organize, re-live, and share special moments with our friends, family, and doctors. Nothing would make us happier than helping other families do the same.

ORCA is a research app built by the Werchan Infant Learning and Development (WILD) Lab at UC Irvine (the-wild-lab.com). It helps families participate in approved studies on early child development—from the comfort of your home. BUILT FOR RESEARCH, NOT DIAGNOSIS ORCA is designed to support scientific research. It does not diagnose, treat, or monitor medical conditions. If you have concerns about your child’s development, please speak with your pediatrician. WHO IS ORCA FOR?
