Contraction Timer tells you when it's time to go to the hospital. Tap one big button when a contraction starts and again when it ends. The app measures how long each contraction lasts and how often they come, compares the last hour with the 5‑1‑1 rule used by doctors and midwives, and shows you one of three clear answers: keep timing, get ready, or go to the hospital now. WHY MOMS LOVE IT • One button, nothing to learn – made for 3 a.m. with one hand • Clear recommendation based on duration and frequency of your contractions • Estimates your stage of labor (early, active, transition) for planned home births • Beautiful timeline of every contraction with duration, interval and intensity • Edit, add manually, undo or resume any contraction – no stress if you tapped late • Choose your rule: 5‑1‑1, 4‑1‑1 or 3‑1‑1, as your doctor or midwife advises • Log when your water breaks, a bloody show or reduced movement – the app adjusts its advice • Apple Watch app: start and stop from your wrist and see the live timer • Siri & Shortcuts ("Start a contraction") and a Home Screen widget with a start/stop button • Kick counter (count to 10), guided breathing and a checkable hospital bag list • Works offline. Your data never leaves your phone CONTRACTION TIMER PRO • Live timer on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island – no need to unlock your phone • Hospital alerts even when the screen is locked • Statistics with graphs: duration, frequency and intensity over time • PDF report of your whole labor to show your doctor or midwife • Baby birth announcement cards to share the happy news • No ads, ever KNOW WHEN TO GO Most hospitals ask first‑time moms to come in when contractions are 5 minutes apart, last 1 minute and this continues for 1 hour (the 5‑1‑1 rule). If this is not your first baby, the app recommends leaving earlier. Tell the app which baby this is and it adapts. LABOR GUIDE INCLUDED How to time a contraction, true vs. false labor (Braxton Hicks), stages of labor, hospital bag checklist, warning signs that mean "go now", and breathing tips for coping with contractions. IMPORTANT This app is not a medical device. Recommendations are based on standard indicators and every labor is different. If your water breaks, you have significant bleeding, the baby moves less than usual, or the pain becomes unbearable, go to the hospital right away and trust what your body is telling you. Always consult your doctor or midwife. PRIVACY No account, no tracking. Contractions are stored only on your device. SUBSCRIPTION Contraction Timer Pro is available as a weekly, monthly or yearly auto‑renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
