Baby Tracker Pro (Newborn Log)

It’s a great app, I love that my husband and I can both track everything baby related. However I wish it wouldn’t take me into the app when I use the island feature of my iphone to pause or start a feed. I would also wish to start/stop/pause with having to unlock my phone.

I’ve used this for my two babies. With my first one I used it religiously. It is really helpful especially with your first baby.

A shame this company wants both parents to pay for the app even if they’re in a family.

I have been using this app since baby #1 in 2016. I honestly don’t know why parents would try to go at caring for a newborn without tracking. When I say never, I mean NEVER did I not know what my baby needed. Even as a first time mom 8yrs ago. The tracker gives me the data to see feeding, sleeping, diaper patterns and I literally never experienced the nightmare of a screaming baby that you don’t know how to soothe and you are aimlessly trying random things. With my first 2 babies, my husband and I worked opposite shifts instead of putting the kids in any kind of daycare or with a sitter. We both had the tracker on our phones (his android, mine iPhone) and we could see how things were going. I would also log what I was pumping at work. We logged medicine intake when baby was sick and even the daily vitamin D drop so I could easily see if I missed a day. We logged growth stats and vaccines at checkups and I can see their growth curve myself. I don’t think I really logged milestones, but there is a place for that too. I would always use the diaper averages and feeding oz averages at doctors appointments when they ask how many wet diapers a day, how many oz of milk. It is all right there at your finger tips. I used the app once they started eating regular food to track what they had. If there was an allergy situation it would be quite clear what they had had any given day. Now that baby #3 is a little over a year, I am only entering when he sleeps into the app. A widget pops up on my Lock Screen so I can quickly glance at it and see “oh he’s been napping for an hour and 40min, he’ll be waking up any time now.” I attribute this app and having a consistent sleep environment/routine since birth to all 3 of my babies being easy and mellow. No tantrums or inconsolable babies in this house! With any tracking device, you have to put the effort in to get the benefits. Of course at times there was grumbling about having to enter the data (especially from my husband) but in the long run knowledge has been power and I am so so thankful for Baby Tracker Pro. I did start out with the free version and then upgrade to pro. While it was a little bit of a struggle to get the data to transfer, I did manage to do it. Don’t hesitate, get this app!

Pay once, use for years. No noise, just efficient ways to enter and view info - including using Siri via Shortcuts. And it’s kept instantly in sync among caretakers. Currently using with a second child - wish I’d known about it for my first two. Thank you to the dev for keeping this going.

Loved it back in 2021 and still love it now! Such a useful app for parents to share data! Very user friendly!

It should at least have the ability to enter symptoms other than a fever, even if just adding “symptom” and the ability to specify in the notes. Though they could easily incorporate a list of common symptoms. A plus would be a list of fruits and vegetables instead of just “veggie” or “fruit”. Again, this info can be added in the notes, but definitely not helpful for tracking specific vegetables in the beginning.

Everything is WONDERFUL about this App. I ended up purchasing the Pro for my second baby. (just get the pro if you are going to use it everyday) I only have one complaint. I wish we can document/save the start of pumping without having to enter in the amount (ml,oz) of milk at the same time. I always go back and edit. I really need to track what time I start pumping most importantly. It won't let you save the time unless you put in the amount of milk. Other apps allow you to do it. If you guys can fix this it be a FIVE STAR in my book.

Used Pro with my first and now with my second and it’s even more helpful now. It’s so hard to remember when I last fed, changed, etc., and I even added a way to track when I last gave reflux medication, which also serves as a super helpful reminder. So worth it to have this app!

The app offered a Siri shortcut. I accidentally closed my phone and have not been able to add since
