Baby Connect (Baby Tracker) Reviews

Life Saver

I love this app, it has made keeping up with my daughter’s schedule so easy. My only wish is that you could write in snacks or drinks without having a timer on it. However, it is particularly helpful when dropping her off with a babysitter and I don’t have to guess when she needs to be fed, changed, put down for a nap, etc.

Great for updates from school

Our kids' preschool uses this app. It's great for getting a view of those little moments during the course of the day that you wouldn't otherwise have any access to. It's pretty cool to see a photo come through in the middle of the day of your kid in the midst of some interesting new activity or song.

So worth it

This is exactly the kind of app my husband and I were looking for. We like that he can check on our son’s feeding, diapers, and sleep while he’s at work. It’s also nice to check on when and how much he last ate during the night without having to wake up the other person. Plus, who can remember times and mLs in the middle of the night? Our son is just over a week old, and before purchasing the app (for only $5 each total of $10), we were manually writing down all this information. Of course the app does more. I like how I can enter the vaccine information for the pediatrician. My husband was about to create a Google Sheet for us to share. This is way better. We’ve been using the app for several days now. I love how it syncs all the data all the time. This was definitely one of the best purchases we could have made as new first time parents!

The new update is not as good!

The new update is not easy on the eye. The pumping part doesn't even have a section for how many ounces pumped. The nursing part is not as helpful either. Like when my little one stops or pauses feeding its hard for me to find things on the new version. Maybe I'm just so familiar with the current app as I used it for my 23 month old in the past and now for my 4month old but I would leave the app alone and not update.

Don’t like the new format

DrClaire

It’s pretty, but not as functional. I use a 5se, with a smaller screen, and some of the important info now requires scrolling. The left/right/both should be all on the same screen, and doesn’t need to be so big. Why does last side have to be changeable by me? It is what it is. And where do I enter how many ounces I just pumped? Can I get back to the old format in the last version?

Buggy when using timers with iOS and Android split households

AlexJH2013

Great features - but we have experienced considerable bugs when syncing and using timers between multiple users on our account. We notice this to be an Android / iOS compatibility issue, as we don’t see this problem when the timer is started and stopped by the same device type. There are numerous small issues that will cause frustration to users with split iOS/Android households/caregivers. Lists and settings do not sync between devices. Both platforms use different text wordings for the summary (for example, one calls it a BM and the other a potty). Sometimes, it will save locally and not sync so the next time you use the app, your entries will be gone. These annoyance add up and hinder the usability of your app. It truly feels like I’m testing prerelease software. Looking forward to you guys addressing these lingering issues with continued success.

New updated version challenges

Dorothygale1984

Great app that I use every day. Love the syncing, pumping, and charts. The new update is not my favorite though. Some challenges I see in the formatting: 1. Pumping recording wants to record each breast yield as default, meaning I have to swipe for the both option. Annoying and just another thing to take time and brain space. 2. The diaper amounts require a tap to toggle from small, medium, and large. I miss the old version where I could just click. 3. The stop and pause buttons are partially covered by the stop and save button in the pumping section. Make sure you click the right thing or you’ll have to go back and edit your entry.

Not a Universal App

Koataylor

Have been enjoying this on our phones as new parents. Got an iPad for Christmas only to find out this IS NOT a universal app and they want to charge ANOTHER $5 for the tablet. Just bad business these days and kinda highlights a level of unexpected greed from the dev. Considering we’ve already dropped $10 on this for both mom&dad phones, very disappointing.

Siri integration please

Fungi008

I wish you could start and stop timers by just saying, “hey Siri, start breast-feeding timer.“ That would be a game-changer.

Awesome

Wish we got this app from day 1. We love using it. It takes so much guesswork out of caring for the baby by keeping us organized and it is so simple and intuitive to use.
