Your baby's sleep broke last night? Start here. A 20-second checklist turns into a plan for tonight: wake windows, bedtime, what to do at 3am, plus a counter for which day of the rough patch you are on and how long it usually runs. Between the rough patches Kip does the daily job. One big button logs sleep, and the next sleep window shows up before overtiredness does. WHEN SLEEP FALLS APART • Teething, a new skill, travel, a schedule change: pick what fits, get a plan for the night and the naps • Steps for today, a check-in each morning, a recovery counter that reads your own log • Fever or illness goes to your pediatrician first. Kip holds the plan until your baby is well. EVERY DAY • The next sleep window as a range, with a badge for how sure Kip is • Start and stop sleep from the widget, Lock Screen, Control Center or Siri, phone still locked • Night remote: dark screen, big buttons, night wakings counted with a tap • Day arc with swipe between days, edits across midnight without am/pm traps • History with a weekly chart TWO PARENTS, ONE LOG • The other parent, a grandparent or a nanny logs sleep with you and sees the same day • They join by link, without their own subscription. Kip Premium comes from you. • Up to 5 people besides you. Stop sharing and the shared log leaves their devices too. WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM Kip starts from age norms built on published pediatric research, then narrows them to your baby over about three days of logging. You always see which of the two you are looking at. Your sleep log stays in your private iCloud. No Kip account, no sign-up. Kip is educational and not medical advice. For fever or illness, see your pediatrician. Terms & Conditions: https://sites.google.com/view/kip-terms Privacy Policy: https://sites.google.com/view/kip-privacy-policy
