  • This app was working fine for me and my wife (I have an android and she has an iPhone, we were using the same account in both phones), it was synchronizing correctly until a couple of days ago when suddenly she would log a sleep and on my phone it wouldn't stop when she stopped it. Now I have reset the app on my phone and I cannot log in with the same account

  • Using this app to track baby's sleep and feed. But it's running slow. Switching between screens and categories is delayed and lags. I've used other apps that track sleep and wake windows for pl my other kids too. This one only seems worth it if you pay to get help with sleep.

  • Great app! During the newborn stage it was great to keep up with how many feeds he had; being sleep deprived, I never even knew what time it was lol. Now baby is almost 5 months old and we still use it to keep track of his sleep, wake windows, and how many ounces he is taking a day so I know how much milk I need to pump. And that's just the free content! Thank you for making such a great app.

  • Super helpful to track with a partner so you can both be aware -- especially during those never-ending night shifts. Data visualization and ability to identify trends is helpful for pediatrician visits. Shared the login with grandma so she can keep up with how our LO is doing, too!

  • This app is super helpful! It is especially nice to have multiple users be able to login to the same account on different devices - that way my husband can start a sleep timer on his phone and I can end it several hours later on my phone. Great app, would definitely would recommend!

    • This is the most perfectly designed app. They have thought of everything. SO helpful keeping track of my twins naps and feeds. The only thing that could make it better was if there was a twin setting, to adjust nap times to try and keep babies on the same schedule.

    • Functional but slow. Love the proactive sleep suggestions vs passive tracking but wow, the lag is really bad. 4-5 seconds to open a screen sometimes. And some logs take 1-2 clicks more than other apps I've tried. I'll continue using because of the sleep suggestions with hopes of lag improvement.

    • This app has been my lifeline for naps. I would be totally lost without sweetspot and it works like a charm! I see a lot of reviews saying it's glitchy and doesn't work well with two users but we use it between two people every day and it has never once glitched. The customer service has also been AMAZING! We didn't even notice we had double payments happening from accidentally signing up twice and they noticed it and reimbursed us for the 3 months that it double charged us.

    • The information you can record is fantastic, but it is so glitchy. A lot of the time when you press a button, there is a large lag time in reaction, this of course means I will press it again thinking it didn't recognise my first button press, which then mean that when the screen does change, half the time it immediately changes back because of the second button press. I'm also not 100%sure if data is dropping off sometimes (It could be baby brain, but sometimes I don't think so).

    • Highly recommend! My husband and I use it all day, everyday. We are first time parents and tracking keeps us on top of our baby's needs. Sometimes it's glitchy and slow. But it makes sense since we track everything and it's a lot of data. We primarily use the the free version. We did do a month of the premium paid version. But we didn't find it as beneficial. This was when our baby was two months old so it can be due to that.

    • I got the premium subscription in order to get the Sweet spot calculations. But the more I use the app, the more glitchy it gets and I find myself having to quit the app completely and even tried reinstall. App often does not sync between users, if someone else logs the start of nap time, more times than not, I cannot see it on my app. Often when you are ready to log, tapping on the category banner brings you back to the summary page instead. Frustrating. Wish the app correct these glitches!

    • Id give the app 5 stars if it had push notifications for the next feeding alarm, and a widget so i could see relevant stats at a glance instead of having to go into the app every time. Other than that the app is wonderful, i love the way it has the start/stop buttons for left/right breastfeeding. I've gone through quite a few apps and this one is definitely my favorite.

    • Great app, despite the incredible lag time! All of the data tracking is fantastic. It's incredibly helpful to have shared access between parents / caregivers and the ability to make informed decisions is made much easier thanks to the great data visualization. However, the app is INCREDIBLY laggy with it taking sometimes 10 seconds to advance after selecting a different view or attempting to track a data point. Not hyperbole either. I literally counted 10 seconds from button press to action.

    • LE: looks like yesterday's update fixed the performance issue. Tested on 2 devices and app works great I love the app but it has big performance issues. Navigating through the app takes few seconds per step to switch tabs. On the chart section it always opens on Week then goes to the last selected before switching to a different tab. I thought that it was slow because it took too long to retrieve the data and populate the chart...

    • This would be the perfect app if only it didn't lag so bad. It's very difficult to switch between screens and functions making the app frustrating to use - especially in the middle of the night. I wouldn't even consider paying the subscription until the app functioned better. As much as I like all the different options, I'll be looking for a different app

    • It's a good idea for an app,but it's so glitchy!! If you have two people using it,half the time it doesn't register the other or erases the data.. which defeats the purpose of using the app. It's very sloppy/slow and the customer service isn't good. I've emailed them several times to fix it but they don't communicate well. I would never make a purchase,only use the free version.

    • Great range of features but the app often freezes and needs to be closed and reopened before it will work. Sometimes after running for a while the app will respond strangely to requests, flickering backwards and forwards between the add and summary tabs. Other than these minor issues, it's a great app.

    • You cannot use two feeding timers at one time so if you have twins it's eh. You can track one and put the other in manually but that's more time and steps. When putting in a feed entry manually like if you press start because you forgot to start it and change the time really quick it puts the time to both no matter what side you hit so you have to go back and edit it. Also it doesn't track from 12 am to 12 am so it can throw off your counts.

    • Best tracking app I've tried so far. Easy to adjust the timers, log the diapers etc. intuitive interface everywhere. Also had the trial period for the sweet spot. It's not bad, just doesn't work for us. Luckily the app remained perfectly useful without the purchase, maybe we will get back to that too some day.

    • This app has been super helpful with our first baby. We've used it since he was born until now at 3.5 months. We use it mostly to record feedings and sleep. It is helping us figure out his sleeping patterns. I like that 2 users can log into one account and update in real time, so we don't have to keep asking each other how much our baby ate/slept. The UI is intuitive and attractive as well. The Sweet spot thing is pretty accurate, too.

    • Edit* 18.03.2023 All previous concerns have been addressed. Happy with the app! Great App when it was working, but ever since the latest update, it constantly asks me to set reminders for each input (feed/diaper etc) which is extremely annoying, and it crashes and freezes constantly! Using an S21 with this app makes me feel like I'm opening it with a potato phone and not a flagship. Very slow to change between screens, data not being saved due to crashes

    • Using for 9 months. Easy to log things from earlier in the day or from daycare. They offer a sleep program and there was a free trial I wish I would have known about so I could have looked into it but sleep tracking is good. Timer for breastfeeding and pumping. It tracks pump volume, diapers, solid food, meds, etc. I do wish when you paused the pump timer it actually paused vs resumed but overall very happy with the app and would recommend!

    • This app is absolutely amazing for tracking your feeding, sleep, diapers, solids, medicines, bath, etc. It allows you to customize a huge variety so it works for you. I have been using this app every single day to track all the above for the last 6.5 months and I truly have to say it really is 5 stars. It is easy to use, my husband and I both have access and it holds all the data in 1 place which makes it easy to refer back. It also provides helpful tips as your child grows. 10/10 FREE app.

    • Useful app, but laggy. I click on a button and it takes a few seconds for the app to catch up. Also wish there was a better way to log combo feeding as one feed session instead of everything being based on either nursing or a bottle. Our baby gets both but each is logged as a separate feed, and thus it counts as separate sessions and also means the "timer" since last feed resets too early.

    • We're using the free version of the app and it's great! It really helps us keep track of the important things and the weekly graph is great for seeing patterns emerge. Wish we had known about it when he was a newborn! Its great when you're sleep deprived and can't remember anything! I love that my husband and I can both use the app! The 2 week free trial of the plus was nice and the sweet spot predictor was fairly accurate! Love this app and will continue to use it!

    • Love this app, but has a few bugs every now and again. These usually get resolved quickly, but a new one soon pops up. Fortunately, they normally aren't major bugs, just slightly annoying. I've used the app for about a year now. The user interface is easy to navigate and well designed. Definitely helps me keep on top of things with baby's routine.

    • It is a very helpful app to track the baby but it would be more convenient if there is a widget for the app on home screen to fill the data into the app. Another thing is adding the time could you make easier instead of scrolling. Thank you for this app😊 Editing my review: I would like to thank you again for taking my complaint into consideration and solving the issue that I had with the app. Thank you again for everything.

    • Useful but very laggy on Android. You'd think that for an app based around timing things (all whilst holding a baby), being able to click between screens without having to wait 5+ seconds every time would be a priority. Would also be useful for allergy/reflux babies if there was an option to track throw-ups as this would help find correlations between different foods and their effects.

    • Good app and it does everything that I need to it. The only issue I have with it is that the days are based on the time that you set as day and night (which is restricted to certain hours), and there is no option to get all stats based on a calendar day. This means that food and sleep statistics are inconsistent between day and summary tabs, and sometimes sleep time being allocated to the wrong day. If this option was available, then I'd give this app 5/5.

    • Finally this app has been fixed and no longer hangs. And it's a great app! It has become an essential part of our daily life with our newborn. We've just started using the sweet spot feature for sleep and it has been very accurate. It would be even better if it had widgets for quickly logging naps etc, and long press functions. An API and other dev tools would be great for setting up things like IFTTT and NFT tags too.
