UX Pain Points

Design and usability issues driving negative reviews.

Real-time sync delays causing dangerous situations

Parents using multiple devices don't see each other's entries in real-time, leading to critical errors like double-feeding babies at night

"We even ended up double feeding in the night as we had not seen the others input. It simply did not show even though logged"

Loud ads disrupting sleeping babies

Ads play with sound automatically when opening the app, which is particularly problematic during nighttime feedings when babies are sleeping

"Everytime you open the app it plays an ad… with sound! Tryna log baby info and baby is napping, the ad comes on loud smh"

Critical features locked behind paywall

Basic functionality like ad-free experience requires payment, frustrating users who need quick, quiet access during baby care

"You could get no ads, but of course they want you to pay for that"
