Baby Tracker. Reviews

I started using BabyTracker since the day my son was born. For the first week it worked fine but once our subscription kicked in ($23 for a year with all benefits unlocked) it either wouldn’t save entries, the time stamps for naps and feeding would be wildly different, and BabyTracker never updates so you have to close it down and reopen just to see how long it’s really been since your child ate or slept etc. with the time, say I started the timer when my son went to sleep, when I’d go to turn off the time, maybe an hour or so later, to save the amount of time he’d slept itd say a ridiculous amount. 2000 minutes plus. For $23 this is a waste of money and only causes frustration. Only reason I gave it two stars is because for the first week out of three I used it, it was fantastic.

My baby was born this week and the doctor recommended that I download an app to track feedings, pees, and poops. I wanted something simple and easy to read/input. Unfortunately, the input was easy (though you NEED an edit feature), but the history is terrible. I recommend showing time for each event instead of just “x hours ago”. Also, the history needs to be able to go back more than a day. Im bummed to have diligently tracked everything over the last day and have nothing to speak to at the doctors today. Another recommendation is that Insights should include diaper changes.

Otherwise, very buggy and saw some spelling mistakes. (See insights page). Didn’t personally need the music or additional features

1. I own the pro account but every few days a banner will appear at the top of my screen that advertises the pro account. When this banner is present I cannot add and feeds, diaper changes, or log sleep. I can try to log it, fill in all the info but it will not show on the home page when I complete the log. I have to exit BabyTracker and restart it in order for the banner to go away and to be able to continue logging.
2. Anytime I try to click the bell notification in the top right corner my screen goes black and BabyTracker closes. I have found no solution to aid this, it literally always closes BabyTracker down.... Every. Single. Time.

I did not pay for the pro version for these kinds of glitches to happen. I’ve been using BabyTracker for nearly 3 months and this has not been fixed.

It really needs some glitches fixed. I would buy it but I can’t set reminders... Which I would use ALOT but it doesn’t seem to work. I don’t really use the songs. I really just like the layout and how easy it is. I also would like to see maybe you can edit the activities instead of having to delete something if it’s wrong. Also please fix that you can be pumping both left and right side at the same time instead of adding the time for both making it incorrect. Also adding a Newborn size diaper would be great. If these all got fixed BabyTracker would be PERFECT. Until then I will keep looking a different one that works all the way.

BabyTracker itself is really not an app but a glorified cd, with the ability to buy more songs. It does’t really have any features at all. Then why am I giving it 5 stars? Because the songs work. They saved us from countless sleepless nights and bad car trips. Just put the songs on and our daughter calms right out and goes to sleep.

Very disappointed that you need a membership to access important data about your child... Also very annoying that at a certain point it stops tracking your log inputs. Is this because I didn’t buy the premium package?

The layout of BabyTracker is quite nice though. Only app improvement I would make is display the times of the log tabs instead of “xx minutes ago”.

2 star review solely on the fact that they want you to give them your money so you can keep better track of your baby’s habits.

I was automatically subscribed to BabyTracker though I was not happy with it (even deleted it off my phone before realizing I was charged for the year)and there is no direct way to contact anyone or cancel the subscription. I have tried the available email and the developer email and have not received any responses. I don't even know how to ensure BabyTracker doesn't charge me again in a year! I've looked and looked for ways to contact any support to no avail. If anyone can direct me I would be very gracious.

Is there a way to edit entries in the roadmap? Currently if a mistake was made, I need to delete the entry and enter everything again. Additionally, is there an option to keep the screen on? Having my hands full, I would prefer not having to pick up the phone and unlock it to track something.

Leaving this as a review because BabyTracker Support link takes me to a Facebook page. Do you have an email address for those who don’t use Facebook?

There are numerous better apps available for tracking your baby. BabyTracker allows you to enter and track feedings and diaper changes and sleep but viewing the information you’ve entered is difficult/impossible. You get so frustrated that you try out the premium version for their two week free trial and find it to be just as useless and even more frustrating and DO not believe them when they say the will remind you about your trial period ending prior to charging your card.

I think BabyTracker is amazing! Super easy to use, convenient and I love the colors/design/layout of BabyTracker itself! I think it’s the most user friendly, and the most efficient!
However I didn’t give it a 5 star because I would love for it to have an Apple Watch App! That would take it to a 5 Star level for me! I love the hands free option of not having to reach for my phone for the middle of the night feedings! If they could make that happen, it would be 5 ⭐️ all the way!

I love the way BabyTracker looks and the fact that it covers all the bases: feeding, pooping, sleeping, pumping. However, I cannot share this with his father and his grandmother who also need to see his stats!! Is there anyway this can be added to an update? I would pay for BabyTracker if I could share it and add womb sounds, ocean waves, and rain storms to the sounds.👍🏽 other than that I loooovve BabyTracker!

Wish I could sync w other people actively engaged in all her little life activities. My spouse does half the work…
However aside from not being able to link the accounts the layout is lovely and very user friendly

I paid for the full subscription thinking that I would have access to all my login information and history, and I can’t access the history for the previous date. Very upsetting when you are relying on it, and can’t access the full history. Also, the sleep timer it’s not always accurate, has a lot of glitches. I have Contacted them in regard to this issue, and haven’t gotten any response. BabyTracker is not worth buying, not even downloading the free version

Great app for tracking, sleeping, diapers and pumping. All the features a new mom needs!

I actually like BabyTracker but there are few issues. For instance, there is no way you can edit something, instead you have to delete it on order to have the correct info reflected. The sleeping timer stops once you get out of BabyTracker . Also, the pumping option only allows you to time one side at a time, I use a double pump.

The interface is great, easy to use, but it really need a edit opinion for the entries. Other thing is missing; is important to me, know the time of the entry not “x hours ago”.

Thanks, hope to fix that soon.

Too many taps clicks, the Baby Tracker Pro app is much more streamlined which is what parents need- something that keeps data logged and allows you to input quickly. Still need to fix the word “poppy” to “poopy”. Biggest issue, I emailed you guys and you’ve yet to respond- you billed me for an annual subscription when I only authorized a 7 day free trial. You billed me the same day I started the 7 day “free trial”. If you want to respond- please respond to my email not on here.

App was missing some key things like being able to track breast pumps working on 2 breasts simultaneously. The word poppy instead of poppy which seems crass but is annoying. Big issue “ where do I go to cancel my trial before you charge me!?!” It shouldn’t be this difficult. Also when I click “support” an email window opens and then Immediately closes. I need to cancel my trial.

Pros: I like BabyTracker. Very clean interface. Straight to the point.

Cons: Does not show real time - example if you fed the baby at 4:30pm it won’t show that. It will show 20 minutes ago or 2 hours ago or 19 hours ago etc. It would be nice for BabyTracker to show the actual time. Babies run on schedules and it would be extremely helpful if this feature was implemented.

Cons: If you enter an incorrect time for example or you enter incorrect oz you cannot edit. The only option is to delete that entry and re type all the information again. It’s annoying.

Waiting for an update will give 5 stars

I really wanted to use BabyTracker - its UI is very clean and simple unlike some of the other options which are cluttered with unnecessary elements. The show stopper was the inability to share access between two people. Seems like a huge oversight as all the other apps provide this functionality.

I would not recommend BabyTracker to anyone because it constantly crashes and you will lose all of the data you have had. I have tried BabyTracker twice because when it works properly, it’s wonderful, but after a month or so, it freezes and stops working. I could not restore the info that I had saved, so BabyTracker is ultimately crap.

At first, the baby tracking features look promising. I wanted an app that gives good insight on sleeping / eating averages, which BabyTracker does. But the dashboard the shows: last time for sleeping, shows the time of the start of last nap instead last time baby woke up.

There’s a typo in diapers: it states “Poppy” the correct spelling is “poopy.

I see most of the recent reviews for BabyTracker is related to the music, which I don’t care for.

For $25/year, BabyTracker could be better developed. And they make it difficult to cancel your trial - it’s hard to find from your app settings

I entered the first feeding and it unlocked lullabies that immediately started playing at full volume and woke my just-fallen-asleep baby. Not helpful - deleting minutes after downloading. Update: I got an email from the developer that they are working to fix this.

BabyTracker looks really nice but doesn’t seem developed by actual users. Can’t properly edit things, can’t set start time on breastfeed timers, stops breastfeed timer if you change screen, has a button to remove entries (swipe was invented a decade ago) but no edit.. this was from first 3 minutes of using it.

So far even though I bought all the different moods it's not letting me download the ones I unlocked it just keeps asking me to rate BabyTracker .

Just downloaded BabyTracker and already have tried several times and can not get it to record a manually entered feeding time. Keeps going back to 0 min on both sides no matter how many times I try to enter a feeding. Pointless!! Beyond irritating
