Pediatric Growth Charts by Boston Children's Hospital

I loved the app when my kids were babies to see their growth and know if they were on the charts for weight. However my husband and I are tall (he’s 6’9, I’m 6’0) and our kids have been >99% since they were 1yo. This was funny at first cause you know we’re tall but now that they’re 7yo and 8yo and finicky eaters I am watching them a little closer and to have their height and weight not correlating is annoying. They’re totally off the charts for bmi height and weight. I mean like the dots are in the title on some of the charts. So there should be some consideration given for kids who are taller than the average.

The app not working properly after entering the parameters its will not proceed to next step And plotting in the chart And after multiple attempts the app will crash

Have used this app for years for my daughter who has growth issues. Haven’t had any issues with it. I’ve even changed phones and as long as my phone was backed up (backed up to the cloud last time) I could re-download the backup with all the info saved.

If you regularly work with parents and have to predict when a child may outgrow a certain (class of) car seat, you NEED this app. Period.

I have been using it for years and went to go input my new sons info to compare against his 2 older sisters and noticed my app was gone. While I took my son to his peds appt yesterday my parents let my toddler use my iPad and she deleted the app. Reinstall it to find all data lost and the only way to back it up is via email. Now if only I knew she would get the iPad and that I needed to make sure I backed it up recently, if ever...should be standard to back it up or have it on a set schedule. I have my oldest daughters stats down as I found the app after her but have lost my toddlers 2 years worth of info.

Does not calculate z-scores; requires you to calculate age and therefore subject to rounding errors and prohibits accurate growth velocity calculations.

I’m having some trouble with the app. When using the calculator button to enter age and anthropometrics, the save button isn’t working. I wonder if the developer has stopped supporting it since there hasn’t been an update in a while.

I tried other apps for charting my kid’s growth but they were glitchy or started asking for money. This app is great. It’s free and it does exactly what it needs to. Just input the birthday of the child then you input height, weight or head circ at different days and it charts them out for you on the CDC growth charts. It’s as simple to use as you can ever want. Highly recommended.

Won't save the data!!!

Please add standard deviation and velocity of weight and height
