Tap to start. Tap to end. TinyCare is a baby tracker built for the present moment โ€” not for filling out forms after the fact. When feeding begins, tap "Feed" on the home screen. A live indicator on your Dynamic Island shows the session is in progress. Tap "End" when you're done. No "what time did this start?" โ€” because you logged it the moment it happened. โ€” THE FEATURES PARENTS ACTUALLY USE, REDESIGNED โ€” - Live activity tiles. Big, glanceable tiles for Feed, Sleep, Bath, Diaper, and Play. One tap to start, one tap to stop. - Swimlane timeline. See at a glance when she last fed, how long she slept, and what came in between. Far more intuitive than a flat event list. - Time-aware estimates. Daytime feeds and nighttime feeds aren't the same. TinyCare learns your baby's daily rhythm and predicts the next feed or sleep based on the time of day, not a flat average. - Wake spans & feed spans. Instantly see how long your baby has been awake, or how long since the last feed. - Trends that mean something. Daily totals, weekly patterns, sleep stretches, longest naps, feed amounts, awake windows โ€” all in clean, readable graphs. - Growth tracking with percentiles. Log weight and height, see your baby plotted against standard growth curves, and find out what percentile they're in. - Synced across caregivers. Partners, grandparents, and nannies can all log to the same baby in real time. - Smart reminders. A heads-up before the next predicted feed or sleep โ€” not arbitrary timers. โ€” WHY WE BUILT THIS โ€” Most baby trackers ask you to remember when something happened and write it down afterward. That's backwards. The best moment to log a feed is when the feed starts. TinyCare treats logging as a switch you flip in the moment, so you don't have to remember start times and you don't have to do paperwork after a 3 AM session. We built TinyCare to give parents back their presence. Track less. Be more.
