Rhythmom is a contraction timer designed for moms-to-be. Tap once when a contraction starts and again when it ends — the app records each contraction's duration and interval, and uses your contraction rules (such as 5-1-1) to let you know when it may be time to head to the hospital, supporting you until you meet your baby. KEY FEATURES • One-tap contraction timing Tap the ring to start, tap again to stop. Duration, interval, and today's count at a glance. • Smart hospital reminders Built-in 5-1-1 and other common contraction rules, fully customizable for interval, duration, and pattern length. When your pattern meets the standard, the app alerts you — experienced moms can switch to the stricter 4-1-1 rule. • Complete history Every contraction is saved. Review totals, average duration, and average interval anytime — perfect to show your doctor. • Visual charts Trend charts for the last 14 days, this week, and this month make duration and interval easy to read at a glance. • PDF report export Generate a contraction report with summary metrics and full details, ready to print or share with your doctor. • Apple Watch timing Contractions don't wait for your phone. Start timing from your wrist — data syncs automatically. • iPhone widgets Put contraction timing on your Home Screen or Lock Screen. Start logging and check your status without opening the app. • Invite family Labor is easier together. Invite your partner or family to view your log and help time contractions, side by side. • Birth announcement After your baby arrives, add a name, birth time, weight, and length to create a beautiful announcement card and share the joy with everyone who cares. PRIVACY & SECURITY All data stays on your device. Only you and the family you invite can see it. We never upload or collect your health data. PLEASE NOTE This app is for health education reference only and is not a medical diagnosis. If your water breaks, you notice bleeding, or you have severe pain, seek medical care immediately.
