About

Bober Baby Tracker

Features
Read full description

At three in the morning only one question matters: when did she last feed and was that me or you? Bober is the baby diary for two: breastfeeding, bottles, sleep and diapers logged in seconds, on iPhone and Apple Watch. BOTH OF YOU SEE THE SAME THING, AT THE SAME TIME Everything syncs automatically between your iPhones. What one of you logs is there for the other. If a timer is running on your phone, it runs on theirs. And when you are not sure whether the baby has been fed, you ask with one tap: the partner ping is answered with OK or No no phone call, nobody woken up. ON YOUR WRIST, TOO The Apple Watch does the things that matter: start, stop and log breastfeeding, bottles, sleep, pumping and diapers without reaching for your phone. Plus complications on the watch face and running timers in the Smart Stack. WITHOUT LOOKING Live Activities show running timers on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Widgets open the right entry from the Home Screen with one tap. And Siri understands phrases like "Mila woke up in Bober". ANSWERS, NOT SPREADSHEETS How long has she been awake? When did she last eat? The home screen shows what is running now and how long ago the last one was. The 24-hour view makes the rhythm of a day visible; over weeks it turns into a heat map. Growth charts follow the WHO standards and show where your child sits on the curve. WHAT YOU CAN LOG Breastfeeding with separate timers for left and right, bottles with amount and milk type, solids, pumping, diapers including rash, sleep and naps, weight, height and head circumference, medication and temperature, vaccinations, routines, firsts. Several children, several caregivers. MOVING IN IS EASY Coming from another baby tracker? Bober reads CSV exports and brings your whole history along, one file per child. Not every format is supported yet; currently: Nara Baby and Huckleberry. More will follow. (Nara and Huckleberry are trademarks of their owners. Bober is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to either.) Getting out is just as easy: CSV export whenever you want. IN YOUR LANGUAGE German, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean the whole app, not just the buttons: the explanations, the reminders and what Siri says, too. At three in the morning nobody wants to translate as well. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Everything lives on your devices and, with family sync, in your own iCloud. No account, no sign-up, no server of ours. No ads, no subscription, no in-app purchases. Bober is free. WHY IT EXISTS We built Bober for ourselves two parents, two daughters, and no app that did what we needed day to day. It is shaped around exactly that. We hope it helps you too. No registration, no subscription. Open it and start logging.
