Built by a former exclusively pumping mum, Pumply is a simple, focused breast pumping tracker designed to take some of the mental load out of pumping. Quickly log your pumping sessions and milk output, keep an eye on your supply, manage your freezer stash, and see the information that matters without digging through cluttered screens. Whether you exclusively pump or simply want an easier way to keep track of pumping alongside feeding your baby, Pumply keeps everything in one place. **WHY PUMPLY?** • Quickly log pumping sessions and milk output • Keep track of daily totals and your pumping history • See useful stats and trends over time • Manage your stored milk and freezer stash • Simple, calm interface without unnecessary clutter • Built with privacy in mind, with no account required **NEW TO IPHONE, BUT NOT NEW TO PUMPING PARENTS** Pumply has been around for several years and has been used by thousands of pumping parents around the world. The iPhone version is still growing, and I’d love for the people using it now to help shape what comes next. If there’s something you’d like to see, or something that could work better, please get in touch. I’ve always wanted Pumply to be a simple, genuinely useful tool that makes one small part of pumping easier, and your feedback helps me keep making it better.
