Too simple

pr!nc!pessa

The contraction counter doesn’t let you know the date/time of the contraction. Just the length and space between contractions. I’m sure the full version ($2) has some additional features, but there are probably other free options that would suit your needs better. I picked this app because i liked the colors but I’ll probably choose a different one to actually track Labor.


Good for tracking, but overall failed me.

Using this app was a great improvement over notepad, but a few faults made things a little worse overall. I had contractions 2-4 minutes apart and 30-45 seconds long. I thought I had to listen to nurse and have them go up to 5 min apart consistently and last longer or else the hospital would send me home (she didn’t say 5 min or less) and I’d have to suffer multiple trips on the road. NOPE. I was in labor the whole time, almost had baby on couch and had to give birth without my epidural after suffering for over 16 hrs of continuous contractions. This app kept summing up my contractions as “you have time to take a shower, eat something small, gather docs” and “error irregular results” every time. Never head to hospital to get checked! Same with the human nurse though, I was unable to get ahold of a nurse after calling and waiting in the span of 3 hrs, had to beg for one to ask about these tear-streaming contractions! (as I’m totally clueless..thinking I’m just weak & dramatic as the first nurse had me believe it’s just irregular contractions that could last hours, or days, or stop...NOPE) The “Time” displayed in tiny, gray font is insanely poor user interface design. It was invisible to me during my pain as I couldn’t think or hardly function, but I kept wishing so badly the app showed the Time of contractions without having to purchase and only afterwards I realized it was there the whole time. Another thing with the advertisement to purchase full version popping up on accident constantly kept preventing me from hitting the start button in time. Free version should contain a delete single contraction button for this reason bc it messed up my count and analyzation with this pop up constantly and I couldn’t delete without wiping this whole log. Felt unfair and all this made the full app Not worth the money, so I wouldn’t purchase even out of desperation in my pain. **just noticed I must have purchased this on accident at some point during pain as it’s over now and all the buttons/taps work with no pop-up to purchase..ughhhh what luck now that I no longer need it. Thanks for the tracker though. The button made it easier than repeating the time on the clock in my head over and over until I can breathe & write it down so I guess it was worth looking back. Gotta delete ya now though bc the sight of app reminds me of the hours of pure agony and torture.


The perfect app for tracking contractions

I delivered my baby yesterday. If it weren’t for this app, I don’t think I would’ve realized I needed to start heading to the hospital! All you do is tap when your contractions start then press stop when they stop. Easy. I also love that it gives you recommendations depending on how often you are contracting. Best tool for any expecting mother!

My labor and delivery

I should have listened to the app when it said go to the hospital, we had our baby girl in my husbands Kia right outside the ER. I am thankful for this app.


Perfect for what we needed!

My wife had been having Braxton-Hicks contractions for a week so when the real ones came I needed a timer right then! This app was perfect for what I needed. No we’re just at the hospital waiting for the little tyke to come!


Got the job done

When I first started going into labor my husband was tracking my contractions with the stop watch on his phone. "You know there are apps for that?" I said. "This is working fine," he said. Fast forward to an hour later when I was in active labor and the contractions were coming hard and fast. My husband got up to get me some water and handed me MY phone. "Push this big button when your next contraction starts." I look down and he had downloaded a contraction app! When I pointed this out he said that it was way too much to try to keep track of with a stop watch and notepad. The app itself is very easy to use. You push the big button when a contraction starts and you push it again when it stops. Super easy for even a woman in active labor to do. I didn't realize it, but apparently every few contractions it was telling my husband to take me to the hospital! When we finally went I only labored for about an hour before I was fully dilated and started to push, so the app seemed to be spot on. It's nothing fancy, but it got the job done and in the chaos of labor we needed something super simple.


Minimum viable product

Best UI out there - very simple & straightforward. I really like this one & am using it over the other two I downloaded. That said; is is definitely bare bones 3 basic missing features: if I hit the button by accident, then delete the accidental contraction, it should fix the "duration" time -- i.e., if I have a contraction at 10:10, bump the button accidentally at 10:05, then have another contraction at 10:10, then delete the middle one... the duration between the two "real" contractions should be 10 minutes, not 5. I should be able to update the length of a contraction. And I should be able to rate "strength" ... those seem the major missing features to me, but overall the app is usable, has a nice clean UI, and isn't annoying. Definitely worth a try, especially if you just want the basics :)
