Ovia Pregnancy & Baby Tracker

I’ve used this app since having my first baby in 2018. I’m now in my fourth pregnancy. I think the app is the best pregnancy app but I’m very disappointed in the language the app now uses. For example, I just read that if my “baby is female, THEIR ovaries are starting to develop.” Not only is this grammatically incorrect, but my baby has no concept of gender so why not use “her.” The use of “pregnant persons” is also insulting to the inherent dignity of women. Only women can get pregnant. Period. Full stop. If you are pregnant, you are a biological woman. This app, like other politically motivated groups, is contributing to the erasure of women and insults their bodily dignity. It is part of the patriarchy they have decried for so long, only to give into a new wave of “victims.”

Every time I open the app one of the notifications says ‘just a reminder, Ovia is here to provide guidance. For medical advice please consult your provider.’ Like no duh. It’s condescending blasting that every time you use the app.

This app requires first name, date of birth, country, and state. This is enough to track you and prosecute you if authorities suspect you had an abortion or miscarriage. Delete your account and data and delete this app.

Requires state of residence. Do not use.

i don’t like that i don’t know the gender yet the app is already referring to my baby as a “she”. takes away the suspense if it actually is a girl but also annoying if it’s a boy and it’s been referring to it as a girl this whole time. hopefully the app fixes this very simple yet odd mistake considering the entire purpose of the app

No app covers premature babies milestone

I like this app and consider it useful for its kick counting tool, but several times I have seen information tidbits on it that simply are not true. For example, the other day I took a poll on the app and it told me that if I was out of breath, it meant my baby wasn’t getting enough oxygen. That is verifiably false. The baby receives oxygen from the placenta, even if the mother’s diaphragm is suppressed by the uterus. I take all the information on this app with a grain of salt and would encourage others to do the same.

Love this app. Very useful.

Has a lot of great stuff just not what I was looking for!

Every article is pushing for me to stop eating meat, stop drinking milk, stop eating animal products and eat SOY 😂 Get off your vegan agenda, especially when it comes to pregnancy where proper nutrition is extremely vital to mom and baby. Also, we’re women giving birth… not “folks”. So many lesbian pictures too. It’s so woke it’s gross.
