Scary APP!!!There are predators using this app. Recording your personal information and saving your personal pictures of your children. THIS APP IS NOT SECURE. They will track you down through other social media, and harass you. Please use with caution!!!.Version: 1.11.1

Have used this since 2016 secondary infertility was beated!This is a wonderful app set up I love them all and it’s so simple and gives so much information about how I should be doing this or that with my 10 month old son ! It’s been a life saver even for a 3rd time mom it’s helped me learn so much I wish I used it more like I forgot of all the cute features I will be sure to use the glow baby. With my 4th ✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️✝️ it won’t let me update my address so I can’t receive gifts but only can send them. It’s honestly had me disappointed bc things had to get canceled bc it won’t let me add my address I contacted y’all about it and nothing came of it it’s been a few months. I thought this was a great app until that major flaw. It still don’t let me add my address I contacted them nothing was done. It still does it. And gets me so annoyed bc of gift it Foward i gifted and it said I was gifted back but then they all were canceled bc my address isn’t available but yet it’s in the app?!? This app pisses me off I’m thinking about not using it after all these years!.Version: 3.3.2

Take it back please!I just popped on to sing your praises, as I was about to do that I saw an update, so I updated the app. One of my favourite things about the app was how the sleep, feed, nappy change were all at the top, they were easy to read and navigate. Also easy to see which thing I hadn’t done the longest as they were next to each other left to right. Unfortunately with the new update they are top to bottom and only on one page. Please take it back. Wish I could roll back the app!.Version: 2.1.1

Ok. A little too much going on.I found this app amazing until it started reducing my log in times. I never had this issue with my second baby but when I started logging for my third it started reducing how many times a day I could log unless I wanted to pay for the app. Which I did not. So I went elsewhere. The app can be quite difficult to navigate because there is so much going on also which I found annoying..Version: 3.3.2

Annoying Wishlist FeatureFor a paid app it gets a bit spammy and pushy with the wish list feature. Babies here - I don’t need a registry anymore. Also the feed timer is a bit glitchy - If you are paused between sides and want to access something else on the app like diaper change, 90% of the time it wipes the feed data sitting there and you can’t save and re bring up the timer..Version: 2.23.2

Hate the new updateI would rate 5 stars I’ve been using this since my little one was born she is now 22 months but the newest update is Terrible I don’t like it.Version: 2.0.2

NeutralGood for tracking thing, would like if the content is curated or recommended as I log baby development.Version: 3.2.0

So different nowI liked this app when i first got it, now i can’t find anything. Why change it so drastically. Will not be using this app for my second child. I’d like a mothers app to be simple and easy to use. Especially since “mom brain” is real i don't have time to relearn a new app every time they decide to do an upgrade! Very disappointed. Especially since i paid for the lifetime ☹️.Version: 3.5.2

Solid but some improved features could make it betterThis app has helped us log all our baby’s feeds and movements easily. We are entirely bottle fed though and feel like the poor cousins. Needs settings to tailor whether you are breast, bottle or mixed. So as not to push the insights down your throat that are not relevant to your child Also the premium subscription only works for for one parent so the other misses out logging the extra unless you shell out for two. Timer is client side for baby sleep so if one parent starts it the other can’t stop it and the logging gets messy. Also once stopped can take over an hour to sync whilst the insights come through straight away making you feel like your baby hasn’t had enough sleep whilst it is the slow server not syncing data quick enough..Version: 2.13.9

Great app but watch app does not workI love this app and it’s amazing how much information you can log and all the insights it gives you however the app which would be really helpful during feeds etc does not work keeps saying “log in to the app on your iPhone” which I have, also would help massively if there were widgets. For the money you pay for premium these features should be included. I’m not bothered about community or the wish list these should be removable..Version: 3.6.2

Good app but awful communityThe actual use of the app for logging feeds, nappies, sleep etc is amazing and you can even track medicine, milestones and growth. My only negatives are that this is a US app and there is no setting to set where you are from to have more relatable articles or community. My biggest issue with this app though is the community part. The app advertises support however a lot of the comments and conversations I have seen are just people bullying and judging other women for their choices or lifestyles and for that reason I don’t use that side of it. If this app was monitored more to stop that it would be a much nicer app.Version: 2.13.7

Plenty of room for improvement.I’ve been using this to track my now 2 month old since birth and it’s been very helpful, but there’s a lot of opportunities with it. My husband and I both use it and oftentimes what he has logged on his app won’t show up on my app. Then we have to manually sync with the server which only sometimes resolves the problem. Sometimes the app on my Apple Watch doesn’t work and will go through a phase for 1-4 days where it tells me to open the app on my phone, yet when I do, nothing happens. Restarting and uninstalling/reinstalling does not resolve the issue and should not be necessary! Since the update for dark mode on January 23 the app is extremely laggy. When I click to add/start a log it takes forever to load. This is a very helpful app in theory, but unfortunately it falls short in execution. I have contacted Glow support in the past who has told me to just restart, etc., and again, this should NOT be necessary! The Glow apps seem to be very popular, so PLEASE get the appropriate tech support to make this app the best it can be. It’s especially crucial for new parents (who are going to need this app more than parents with older babies) whose hands aren’t free often enough to keep up with these issues..Version: 2.7.0

New format way too busy - used to be greatThe recent update has made it much less user friendly. Too much information being crammed into the timeline - was much better when this just displayed the logged data on feeds, sleep etc and not all the flashing analysis and insights. Way too stressful to use now. Some of the ‘insights’ are a bit preachy and don’t seem to be backed by reliable, scientific data which risks just making new mums feel guilty about stuff they need not be..Version: 3.1.0

One Big Ad For PremiumI've used Glow Baby since early 2018 with my first baby and back then it was a dream! So simple and easy to use and such a helpful tool for tracking your baby's daily activities of the eat sleep & dirty diapers. It made pediatrician visits easier with answers to their questions about feeding frequency, # of diapers, and hours of sleep all in one place and even beautifully displayed. Now, however, this app is a mess. It's basically just a giant ad for the premium version with a couple of features that are minimally useful. I'm only still using it because it's already set up and synced with my spouse and we pretty much exclusively use it to track sleep and record growth chart vitals after doctors appointments. i hardly ever open the app, but when i do i'm always left irritated with the experience of multiple pop-ups and a littered home screen of ads for the premium version 😫. it's so excessive and completely ruins the whole experience of using the app at all. features i used for my first child are now behind the paywall for premium and it's just so stupid how little you can actually do and doing even that is annoying enough to keep me off it unless absolutely necessary. Living is expensive and paying for premium is not a priority in the slightest for me, but using the app's basic features shouldn't be miserable!.Version: 2.23.2

Not very open mindedThe only thing I use this app for is to keep track of how many weeks old my baby is so I can tell the doctor in weeks long after I have started thinking in months. But the articles presented to parents are very one sided. Not open minded at all and just sets everyone up to attack each other in the comments if they happen to have a different opinion. Not very impressed..Version: 2.12.1

Constant pop upsI’ve been using the app for 4 years with my kids in the early stages and have loved it! However, since the update, it’s been frustrating, on the free version, to CONSTANTLY be encouraged to update to the pro version. From reading other reviews, sounds like even in the pro version there are lots of pop ups & click bait to deal with still. It’s frustrating to have to X out of a screen that pops up after every single entry (it shows you the comparison to other children their age, but you can only actually see the information if you’re in the pro version. However, I wouldn’t be interested in this information personally & would prefer to be able to toggle this feature OFF & look at the information when/if I desired to). The pages are cluttered now with ads, articles I’ll never read etc instead of simple & clean (what busy moms need), which makes it difficult to find the overview page (let alone other things) which should be easily accessible..Version: 2.18.0

New UI is terribleApp is good for collecting data and I would give the prior version 5 stars, but the recent update is bad. They decided to go for a look over actual function and removed usability. The moments checklist is gone. Quick summaries on diapers, feeding and sleep are now gone and you need to tap through in different sections to see what used to be right on the main screen.Version: 2.0.0

Does the basics, but “tips” reinforce many myths around breastfeeding and infant sleepI like this app for tracking my baby’s sleep, feeds etc and it’s great that you can add other caregivers (mostly this works fine, for some reason sometimes the data doesn’t crossovers. The “analysis” section has helped me to find patterns in my baby’s naps and feeds which is helpful in establishing a routine. However, I’ve given the app 3 stars because of the info “tips” shared — these often paint a very unbalanced picture and are sometimes even outdated. It really annoys me that the app is reinforcing many myths around breastfeeding and infant sleep that make things so much harder for many parents..Version: 2.19.2

Bring back the old format!I used to use this app multiple times a day for tracking wake windows for my baby instead of trying to figure out how long he has been awake..now I don’t know if I will even continue using the app at all. I used to recommend it to all first time mothers because of its great functions. So disappointing..Version: 2.0.4

Good app but no AlexaHatch has Alexa support so we will be changing to that. Far nicer to record as you change a diaper rather than remember to log afterwards..Version: 1.11.0

UPDATE 3/9: Poor app performance since last updateUPDATE: the responsiveness of this app keeps getting worse! You can only start and stop the timers if you touch in EXACTLY the right spot and there is a very long (5 seconds +) felt before they respond. It’s so frustrating when I’m trying to nurse my LO and I’m having to struggle with my phone at the same time! I loved this app when I first downloaded. I upgraded to premium within a day of using it! The timers, charts, and trackers are AMAZING. But they have started adding so many extra features I think it is starting to effect the performance of the app. Since the last update there is a lag when you start the timers. Long enough to tap it again which then stops it, so a couple times I’ve realized after I finish nursing or he wakes up that the timer wasn’t working. It’s one of those things that keeps getting more and more frustrating! If they fix this in a new update I would totally give 5 stars! P.S. I also wish there was a way to pick and choose what features you use. There are some new trackers that I know I’ll use eventually, but my baby is only 10 weeks old so I’m not ready to track teeth. For instance..Version: 2.9.2

All in all a great appI’ve been using this app for about 4 months now and I love it. I do however can not stand the fact that you have to pay a subscription to compare your babies feedings, growth, nap times, and really anything to glow babies, and this is why- Parenting is already so difficult especially if you have multiples or more than one child you’re caring for, we’re constantly stressed about if they got enough to eat or if they’re still hungry or if they’re teething early, or running a fever-we shouldn’t be worried if they’re up to par for their age, so I think we should be able to compare for free. What more could a parent ask for to literally have it all in one app? I also love the community part of this app. It’s nice to know you can talk about more than just babies sometimes and the community in this app and people you follow are so friendly. There aren’t just moms on this app too so I love the fact that it gets dads involved. I love how you can enter notes on loggings, I usually put “gas drops” in them or “ate 28oz in total” for his last feeding just so I can compare for myself to make sure he’s getting enough formula. For parents of babies who struggle to gain or keep weight, this is an important feature that’s just not available for parents who can’t afford to pay for an app. But all in all it’s a great app(from the free side). Surely in the future, the developers of this app will take it easy on customers during an inflation of literally everything..Version: 2.23.2

Not worthI didn't buy it and I got charged I was trying to get refund. For me it is useless. It diidnt help me much when I was not client and after being member diidng changed at all. Waste of money.Version: 3.5.0

Terrible updatesThis app has turned into a money grabbing piece of garbage. I used this app for my first baby last year and it was great. It allowed my partner and I to track together and know how much our baby was eating/wetting diapers. We went to use the app again with our newborn and it’s terrible now. It’s sad you have to sign up and spend money on an app that used to be free. Having a limited amount of entries makes it virtually impossible to use since you can’t add everything you need to in a day. The homepage doesn’t function well anymore and it’s not as easy to access the charts or see the information you need to. Please bring back the old version.Version: 3.4.0

Doesn’t workIt doesn’t work the birthday screen freezes on singing up I tried multiple times.Version: 3.2.3

GlowI use glow as I already had a premium subscription to track periods, ovulation and subsequent pregnancy. If I’m honest, if I hadn’t already paid for the subscription, we would have used a different app. The main reasons are outlined below. Despite having a premium subscription myself, my husband is constantly bombarded with adverts for a separate subscription for his app whenever he uses it to log diapers, food etc (you can have more than one caregiver). This is frustrating because it tries to sell the subscription on the basis of analysis and further information eg our baby compared to peers, how much he ate this week compared to the last etc. We already have access to this information - through my subscription! There is no option to remove items from the log - for example, I am no longer breastfeeding and did not pump -I do not need this front and centre. I would prefer to be able to customize the order of log categories to things I actually use. It would be helpful if the app could prompt wake windows dependent on the age of the baby. It would also be helpful to know what milestones we could be anticipating to meet over the next few weeks/monthsz The glow articles are useless, and quite frankly some of the comments are dangerous. An article promoting the use of donor milk is almost negligent as it could be read as encouraging parents to pay for breast milk through other sources instead of using formula or, if medically necessary, through a reputable milk bank..Version: 2.17.1

Ruined a helpful app, removed functionalityThe home page redesign is terrible, and has removed critical functionality that made this app useful. The home page used to display the latest logs l, which as a parent you often need to check 10x per day, especially when switching between caregivers. This is the primary function of the app. It also used to show much time had passed SINCE the last log - critical information for breastfeeding moms. The redesign has hidden all this information, and removed the ability to see the time since the last log. Which means it’s useless for breastfeeding. I love that they added tracking for toddlers, especially for the growth charts, but everything else about the update is terrible and completely misunderstands why people use the app. The social media timeline look is only going to help them monetize if people still use the app! These changes make that a big question..Version: 2.0.4

Good app but not worth the subscription cost.I really like the summary of baby feeding/ sleeping/ pooping/ weight tracker etc send as PDF on request but that’s not enough in the baby app world in a paid subscription. There is plenty of free apps available on the market tracking those basic baby activities PLUS they offer other handy functions also free of charge (white noise, milestones, moms health tracker, activities for baby etc. ) Massive area of the development is the solid food selection menu. There is sooo many of the usual baby food ingredients that are not available in dropdown menu and it has to be marked as ‘other’. Option of edit the ‘other’ ingredient would be the quickest fix. As the mother’s mother I was under the impression that the other baby’s caregivers would be premium users as well since they are part of ‘my network’. No they are just basic users. And the biggest shortfall. Once my husband start sleep timer it won’t synchronise with my app up until HE stops it. What’s the point of sharing the app then? Think nighttime care of the infant, do your really want to wake the other person to let them know when baby woke up so they can update the app accordingly? Lastly the Glow Forum articles aren’t baste on the factual information and sometimes is downright ‘heresay’. I use this up for 6 months and if I knew earlier about all those disadvantages I would simply go elsewhere (and save the money). There is plenty of fish....Version: 2.3.0

Update decreased functionalityWas loving this app before the recent update. Now you can no longer see at a glance on the home page how long baby has slept so far today, or how many wet/dirty diapers they've had, and the sleep tracker now counts from the last time they fell asleep instead of the last time they woke up (so it's not telling you how long they've been awake for like it used to). This is super annoying because these were some of the main things I regularly checked the app for. You can still figure this out for yourself in the analysis chart or in the timeline but it takes longer than a quick glance..Version: 2.0.1

Good app Missing Important FeaturesI will change to 5 stars once they add these features. Being a new dad and an app professional having a tracker is great. This app provides all the needed functions as far as having the tracking and insights. The ease of use and functionality can use work. Being able to add dates and times to functions such as feeding is great. What is not great is how I can just hit a button to start the time and end the time without going into the in-app widget. There is space on that in-app widget to put a start/stop button. Talking about widgets! There should be a widget for the phone to have the same start stop function where I can just press a button from the Home Screen or Lock Screen of my phone. They have a widget for the nurture app which is less important in terms of tracking your babies health. Lastly but not as important, these apps should be more farther minded as well. I understand mothers are the main contributors to a babies growth however, there are also fathers that want to be involved as much as possible and it would be helpful to have information of how to be involved and what to look out for with the baby but also our wives/partner. For instance if my wife is going through post partum depression, how can I be more supportive and what should I look out for. Also there needs to be more options for caregivers; grandparents, aunts, uncles, and so on That’s all. If you as just the widgets I will put this at a 5 start regardless..Version: 3.6.0

Incredibly helpful! - updatedFirst time mom here- I tried 3 other apps before finding Glow. I was so frustrated by how complicated other apps were. Glow really streamlines info and makes everything SO organized and easy to get to. I never have to worry about tracking because it’s seriously a breeze with this app. I gave it 4 stars because I’m not a huge fan of all the articles and/or tips - some things you can’t predict for every baby and it might make some moms worry when there’s no need to (too much information isn’t always a good thing). **update** lowered to 2 stars... I’ve used this app for over 4 months now and still really like how easy and convenient it’s been but they shove the pro version every chance they get. That gets annoying if you’re just trying to time a feed before your kid gets fussy and adds keep popping up. They also just updated the app (like a big update that changed where everything is) and it’s more confusing than it needs to be. Instead of making items more accessible they made it more difficult to find (also annoying if you just got used to the other version). I wouldn’t recommend the app with the new update.. the only reason I keep it now is because I have all my previous data on it 🤷🏻‍♀️.Version: 2.1.1

Not complicated enough!The developers of Glow Baby are clearly going for the title of Most Complicated, Confusing and Busy App of the Year Award but they fall short. They need even more animations and annoying pop-up ads and opaque navigation elements and things spinning and zinging if they want to win..Version: 3.6.0

Fine app, bad product choicesEvery update things just get a little worse. Some executive says “we want people to make wishlists, shove it in their face” and my life gets harder. Some executive says “we want more people to use the community tab, make it the default when you open the app” and my life gets harder. I just want to record what my baby last ate, when my baby goes to sleep, when I change a diaper. Literally anything and everything your app does which makes that harder is undesired..Version: 3.6.3

Love this app but there’s some pretty annoying flawsI’ve been using this app for about 3 years now and it is my go to for tracking both of my boys through their baby years. I love how I’m able yo track everything from their breastfeeding, diapers, sleep, solids, and even tooth eruptions. I even bought the premium subscription years ago so other caregivers could also record when I’m not around. It was perfect before they started really pushing the community page. Now almost every time I open the app it opens on the community tab which I could honestly care less about. I’m not on this app for the Glow community, I’m only here to make my mom life easier to track so I can keep up with what my baby may need at any given time. I’ve waited to say anything hoping that the latest update will fix it but nothing. I’ve even reached out via their feedback page and still nothing. So here’s a warning for all of the other mamas looking for the perfect tracking app: it’s great, but the community page definitely brings it down..Version: 3.9.6

Not ideal for combination feeding MomsThis app offers a wide variety of helpful insights, however I would like to see more options for Mom’s who do combination feeding (BF and formula) my feeds are often counted as duplicates making the insights irrelevant. Also the advertisements (even with a premium account) are irritating when trying to log night feedings..Version: 3.3.2

Just...NoThe new update isn’t great at all. I understand the want for change and the hard work but it’s definitely sacrificed efficiency for looks, there’s not much functionality to the app anymore. I just don’t understand where all the pictures I uploaded went, hate that you have to scroll down a timeline to find them instead of the beautiful place they were in last time, now it’s like their hidden. The sleep timer, why is it showing that my child slept “an hour ago” when he actually slept for 58 minutes and his nap ended 2 minutes ago. I think the look is nice but put the pictures back where they were, and change back the sleep timer to what it was. I like the added milestone-like options, just the confusion of the new update is not cool at all. Personally just upset, I love this app and this update just does not do it for me at all. Appreciate the added work and effort, just please change it back in a sense, I want to see my pictures more easily..Version: 2.0.1

The old version was so much betterThe recent updated version sucks. I love the old version, it was user friendly and help me a lot with tracking my first babies daily routine. But the new version is not user friendly at all!.Version: 3.6.2

Getting greedyI hve used this app for all my children. Getting frustrated at how many features are now paid features and really annoyed that you have a log limit of 20 between all logs. That's just greedy. Good app otherwise, but not willing to pay for a subscription.Version: 3.3.1

Miss the old interfaceLove the app, have been using it since the birth of my child to keep track and occasionally compare the data with other babies. However the comparison before was not in your face. It was easier to see the older log activities. Now you have to scroll through all the insights, pattern and analysis and forecast for EVERY SINGLE log to see what you previously logged… a little annoying. Wish that is optional to show it or not.Version: 3.0.2

Good to badThis was a really good app until the update; I don’t need to see all the stats for everything every time I log something. It over clutters the home page.. I miss seeing all my logs close together in one spot for me to look at and all the stats being in their own little section for me to check up on Very disappointed especially because I can’t find another app as good as this was.Version: 3.0.2

Unable to add caregiversDownloaded the app as heard it was good for multiple users to access. The format and idea is great but I couldn’t add any extra people, which was the primary reason for downloading. I tried several email addresses, paid for the upgrade, emailed about the problem and after one initial response asking what the problem was, I haven’t heard anything since. Most annoyingly it seems mine, and my caregivers email addresses that couldn’t be added, have been sold on for spam. We all started receiving the exact same junk messages the week after I signed up which is very frustrating..Version: 2.13.7

Old version is much betterNew version all the functions are very annoying to use.Version: 2.0.0

No way to delete accountI’m actually losing my mind from frustration. I’m trying to delete my account and nothing I’m trying allows me to do this. The help centre has a dud link under “delete account”, where it’ll bring up an email template but there’s no way to actually hit “send”. Also the website itself won’t allow me to log in because it doesn’t recognise my login details so when I hit “forgot password”, the reset link is not being sent to me email, despite trying a couple of times. This is getting very infuriating!!!.Version: 2.19.2

Great App... until the most recent updateYikes. What a disappointment. Glow went from being the best app we used for tracking our son’s sleep to a pain to use. We want information - not a social media experience. Also, increase in ads is not welcome..Version: 2.0.2

Ads instead of info on a paid productI’ve been dissatisfied with the app as is, given the insights are mediocre at best and I’ve gotten zero help from this app with the baby’s sleep although I track it meticulously. I got stuck with it in baby’s first week when I paid for the subscription though and just kept using it because of that. This morning I woke up with an ad on the main page, in the top carousel for logging info. Instead of the 4th option that lets me log the amount of pumped milk, I got an “owlet” ad. How lovely! On a paid product! This could have been a menu item somewhere for discounts, benefits efc. if that was something the app can offer but nope! Just an ad slapped where the info used to be!.Version: 3.12.3

New update is too clutteredI love the app and purchased the premium subscription but HATE the new update! The pattern chart is now too cluttered. It used to just show small icons for each of the activities but now they are big banner blocks that take up way too much space. They overlap each other and make it hard to see. It’s just so messy looking now. And because things are overlapped so badly, you have to zoom way in to click on each activity correctly. It’s also a huge scam that I paid for premium but my husband, her other primary caregiver, doesn’t have access to premium. What the heck?!? I paid all that money and even though he is part of the same account, he has a fraction of the features?? That’s ridiculous and if I had known before buying, I would have found something else. I have premium access to all the other glow apps which I don’t need but my husband can’t access our daughter’s info. Fix the appearance/layout and allow ALL caregivers on an account the same level of access!.Version: 2.19.2

An “okay” appI really loved this app at first. Being a first time mom and my son being born early and under weight, it was really important to me to keep track of his feedings and diapers. This app allowed entering times, amounts and tracking super easy. I also entered my pumping sessions and time he slept in too. However, I started noticing that it would automatically add in feeds, diapers and pump sessions when I hadn’t entered them (i.e. because they didn’t happen). So, it was in-accurately calculating feeds, diapers, etc, which of course was frustrating and misleading. That is my biggest pet peeve and flaw for this app. With that being said, it does have nice features, like calculates your totals for you and shows you you and your baby’s habits/averages and also shows other baby’s for that same age. It also shows recommendations for baby products, activities for your baby’s age and other nice things like that. So overall, I would say it’s a convenient app... an “okay” app. I’m just continuing to use it and just watch/delete entries that I didn’t enter..Version: 2.10.10

Please add a widget for iPhone usersCould you please make a widget for this app so on my iPhone instead of clicking on the app every time I could just switch to the widgets when the phone screen is locked as well and log sleep, nappy changes and when she eats please would make it so much easier when I’m in a rush and sometimes I forget because I have to keep clicking into the app. If use had this feature for free and premium members I would give 5 stars.Version: 1.11.0

Limited logsI used and liked this app for about 5 days straight until one day it limited the amount of logs I could make to 15. My son pees more than half of those logs away so forget it. I won’t pay to track this stuff….Version: 3.6.3

Used glow family for years! Don’t like the update.I’ve used these apps, Eve/glow/nurture for seven years! I’ve always loved them and have had to adjust to the updates. But I now have a 3 month old son (who, thanks to glow baby, I’ve logged EVERYTHING about so far… 😅) but I HATE this recent update!! 😞 Everything looks chaotic out on the timeline screen now!! It was so much nicer to just be able to scroll down the timeline and see small entries of everything, then go separately to his charts ! And they were so easy to find. It’s all the same so I don’t see why they’d make it less neat, harder to navigate and aesthetically unpleasing. I’m also having an issue now with the breastfeeding timer, I can usually minimize the page and go around the app with the timer still working but now the timer banner pops up and covers the minimize “X” at the top, so I’m stuck on the timer page. Such a shame, I’m usually excited for new updates and I love tracking my sons life with glow. I don’t know if we can get used to this! I’m soooo sad my phone updated this app. 🫠 May as well use an easier to navigate baby tracker app like this used to be! 😩😭.Version: 3.0.2

Helpful.We downloaded this app on our way home from the hospital and has been very helpful in keeping track of everything. The first few weeks are hectic enough without trying to count by memory the amount of times they have weed or pooed, have they slept or eaten enough… After this time though and once the baby is putting on weight and eating routine established, I found it was stressing me looking at whether she fed for 16 or 23 minutes. I know try to use my own instinct kore and actually listen to what my baby is telling me. Some suggestions would be - ability to set reminders - see the time when in all screens because if I haven’t started on time (I’m kind of busy trying to get my baby onto my breast) then I’ll need to do it manually and I don’t wear a watch - on the chart screen, the hours of the day should be on the RIGHT as the current day is on the right side of the screen All in all, good but not worth The premium upgrade. Was disappointed I pay this money then the other caretakers didn’t receive the benefits. Also the articles are very short and top line Also the ‘community’ is a LOT about people cheating, topics that just cause debates in comments.Version: 1.12.7

Was Pleasant to UseWas a good app. Now the price is sky high on annual renewal and it won’t stop bugging me about creating a wish list so that it can monetize my family further..Version: 3.0.0

Great for tracking but entries are delayedThis app has been great for tracking everything with our newborn. I’ve really relied on it for nursing and nap time. What’s frustrating is how long it takes for the app on my phone to update with entries that my husband has added. We purchased the lifetime subscription so that we could both track, but anytime my husband adds something, it might take 5-6+ hours to show up on the app on my phone. I’m basically checking his phone every 3 hours because my app isn’t up to date. Additionally, on my phone, it’s as if we didn’t pay for the lifetime subscription - I continue to get ads to buy it, and I can’t see any data that comes with the lifetime subscription (but you can see all of that on my husbands phone). We purchased the lifetime subscription for the benefits, and yet only one person can utilize them. I’ve tried logging out and back in, deleting and redownloading the app, but I still see the ads and his entries are extremely delayed..Version: 3.2.0

Was a great app till the update!Used to be a fantastic app till they updated. The feeding sessions recorded are shown in a random manner and not chronological and it always lags on the other caregiver’s end to get refreshed! Not recommended.Version: 3.1.1

GlitchyI have used this app for the past 4 months ever since my daughter was born and it’s been great and I rely on it greatly to keep track of feeding and diapers and for advice from the community. However today I can’t get it to work properly at all. It keeps freezing then just crashing (closing). I then reopen it to have it happen again. Please fix the issues in the meantime I will have to use another app. Disappointed Again another update and more disappointment. Glow erased all of the insights I had for my daughter, all the milestones and new foods. I’m not the only one there is a post about this. I received an email after reaching out and the reply was how insights work which is every time you log something new you receive an insight also with every milestone as well. And then she wrote “make sense?” Like I’m an idiot. I to explain everything over again because obviously she didn’t get what I was saying. Perhaps more competent people would be a start. IT then customer service. I wish I could go over “Brynn’s” head. Thanks for making a new disappointed mama feel like an idiot..Version: 2.1.1

Busy interface and misleading subscriptionVery busy interface that doesn’t provide a great user experience and a misleading subscription. If one caregiver subscribes to premium all other caregivers don’t get access to premium they are expected to pay all over again. There is not even a discounted rate for the second person..Version: 2.19.5

Ehh-Not great.I’m not a huge fan, it’s very average, and I trialed the premium version! I’ve been shopping around and tried multiple apps to see which is most user friendly and meets my needs, this ain’t it. My biggest issue is it’s not detailed enough and there’s no place to add details. I think as a mom we want to be able to add notes to various entries. That’s not possible within the app. There is a notes section, but it’s in general and you can’t go back to edit or review easily. I want to be able to add notes to diapers if there’s a problem to track, or to feeding if my baby threw up for example maybe from something I ate, or even sleep. And most of the standard options within the app (ie medication, symptoms, etc) you can’t edit or customize. Also no place for doctors visits or notes for that. And while there’s a place for milestones, no separation for other fun moments that aren’t considered a milestone. Its just too basic for my taste especially for the price. I guess you pay for the Baby 411 book, but it’s just not worth it in my opinion. And the community section is like all social media, there are trolls and people that give horrible, wrong advice..Version: 1.8.4

New update not as goodPlease bring back the awake timer that was on the main screen previously. Also, was able to previously view which side with last nursing, which was very helpful but now gone. Overall great app but the previous version much better..Version: 2.0.1

The new version of the app is terrible!I love the OLD Glow Baby! This version is complete garbage. Switch back to the old app! The new app is awful to navigate, doesn’t show me any of my milestone photos, doesn’t have the “awake time” which I relied on and isn’t as user friendly. So sad..Version: 2.0.2

Like it, but could use a couple thingsOverall this is the app I liked the best for logging everything for my babe. I like how it’s shown in different colors and it displays it on a graph for the day. There are a few things that could help a mama out. A nice feature would be Widgets... for quick logging. During the day when we’re out and about I don’t log as much because I have to go completely into the app each time. Glow does have an app for the Apple Watch and this has helped with the quick logging. Another nice feature would be notifications for synced users/ care givers. Sprout Baby would actually send me a notification when my mother would log that my baby was eating or that baby had just fallen asleep for a nap. It just eased my mind to know what was happening when I couldn’t be there. In Glow Baby there is a feature to export data into a PDF.. I have yet to have this work. I exclusively pump and it would be nice to see my statistics other than just for the day’s, this is said to be on the PDF but I wouldn’t know because it hasn’t worked. Overall I like the app and will continue to use..Version: 2.5.5

Pretty good but could do with more itemsThis app is easy to use, easy to understand and easy to link with extra care givers etc but there are some things missing that would make this a five star app and things that I would have thought would have been quiet reasonable to have in this style of app.. the symptoms part doesn’t have any option for ‘throwing up’ which could be very useful, also with the research I have done, Tummy time is super important but there is no way to track how long and how often this has been done also... these could help improve the app ten fold..Version: 2.5.9

Too many icons for tracking and offensive toned articlesI use the app to track my newborn sons’ feedings , pumping , and sleep. I find the home screen just overwhelming and annoying to look at. It has way to many things going on if you desire simplicity. My husband literally says it gives him a headache everytime he glances at it. Also the tone of the articles are offensive. You can see every single article the goal is not to educate someone its to prove a point. I feel the post are overtly emotional , with no concrete facts. An example they have post about tips on why women quit breast feeding and it was about the most negative things i have ever seen. An example one of the reasons listed was exhaustion. The article literally says you probably wont be successful breastfeeding because you took that extra help with the bottle at the hospital and offers no additional solution . As a mom who had a 46 hour labor and child go to the nicu that annoyed me to read that. I took the support of supplemented formula in the hospital and have been able to successfully breast feed ever since. Why? Because of guidance surrounding me about proper breastfeeding techniques. The articles have no base of support just judgement coming from a specific angle..Version: 2.22.2

Great for tracking, articles are garbageThis app was so helpful those first few weeks. We only really used it to track feeds and it was really good about that and that’s the only reason I kept it. The articles are very bias and not really helpful if you aren’t following what they recommend. For example they really seem to support cosleeping. We have chose not to cosleep for the risks associated with SIDS and because I’m not buying a bigger bed just to let my baby sleep in it and some of the article titles make it sound like they will give good reasons to support both cosleeping and not cosleeping yet all of the articles to support not sharing a bed end up saying how putting baby in the bed is better. I already get enough judgement from other mothers I don’t need to be judged by an app as well..Version: 2.8.2

Horrible updateThis app used to make it so easy to take a quick look at everything but since the update it’s terrible. What a mess..Version: 3.0.2

EhI first used this app in 2018 and since then they’ve made a lot of changes for good and bad. I always opted not to get the paid version of Glow Baby because I had the paid version of the Glow app before and it wasn’t worth the expense to me. I mainly used this app to track feeding times and sleep times because when you’re sleep deprived with a newborn, it helps to have something that keeps a record for you. But they’ve now made so many of its features only available in the paid version so it’s becoming more useless to try to use it for free. I get it - you need subscriptions and revenue to grow. But for those of us who don’t mind seeing ads in order to use it, it would be nice to continue to have the basic functionality of all the record keeping (all of the comparisons and analyses can be kept in the paid version). Since I don’t see the value in the paid version of this app, I will probably go back to doing it old school and keep a record on paper unless I find another app. All the best..Version: 3.3.2

I honestly didn’t even want to give it two stars.Constant ads when you’re holding a crying baby and just trying to log the bottle so you know what time it’s made is bad enough but I told the child’s mother how annoying the ads are on the app and she said “oh I have premium” so you expect each parent and caregiver to individually pay for premium? That’s weird to me. I don’t mind ads that aren’t invasive but these ads pop up every time I try to do anything. Then there’s the fact that I can’t even see baby food I log unless it’s a certain kind without premium and there’s no way to log medications or any conditions that arise like diaper rash so everyone knows what’s going on. I have to text both parents individually so they know. Most of the time I can’t see bottles logged by other caregivers either. Normally I wouldn’t even bother with rating an app like this I would just delete it but it’s not my child so it’s not my choice. Anyway, when you’re dealing with babies it’s super important that you get things right and that you actually have access to the information you thought you logged. Neither of which this app provides..Version: 2.13.21

New update was not well thought outPlease revert the app to the previous version. It no longer tells you how long it has been since the last sleep or diaper change, and you can’t see at a glance how many times your baby has pooped today. You can’t even see the whole day. The update makes the app completely non functional. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Updated review: each update makes this app less useful. Now the breastfeeding time is shown in a pop up window, and if you exit out of the window, your time is lost. Hello - babies have arms and flail about. There is also an error now where total feed time for the day is not adding correctly. It is HOURS off which is downright dangerous if a new mom does not notice the error. I have been using this app many times a day for over two years, two kids, but it seems like every update is thought out by someone who would not be using Glow Baby and clearly does not have kids. The export functionality is also now useless in the free version because no details are captured. Pediatricians ask for these things when there is a concern; that’s why we track the data! Please stop messing with what once was a good thing..Version: 2.10.3

Tracking with a lot of clutterI enjoyed this app at first. I even bought the premium subscription while I was still pregnant. Tracking works well, and when the watch app works properly, it’s handy. BUT... they keep adding silly features that get in the way. The “AR” photo book seems gimmicky and I wouldn’t trust it to work reliably. They are always sending notifications about silly posts in the forums... Now the stories! So much clutter and nonsense! It’s too bad because I like the tracking features and use them pretty religiously. I’ve been trying some other more streamlined trackers, and currently like Huckleberry because we’re in the throes of sorting out nap time and it helps guesstimate when the next nap should be. (And it’s not such a train wreck when I open it up!) Apple Watch app... ugh. Bit of a let down. First: It’s easy to accidentally lose the reading. In the phone app you can leave the timer and it keeps running, but on the watch, if you hit back it cancels it. So many lost sleep tracks! Worse: it displays the times differently than the phone and makes me do math to estimate when the last nap ended! For some reason they tell you when the last one started and how long it was - but not in minutes, in hours! E.g. 1:25pm, 1.4 hours long. So it ended.... errr... how many minutes is .4 hours? 20 something? This is not kind to users who are not sleeping well!!.Version: 2.5.1

The pop-ups are a bit muchLove the app and how it helps me track everything I need to. However, it would be nice if it didn’t suddenly switch to the weekly report page or pop-up with a new sale every time I open up the app. I just want to input my baby’s nap/feed/etc. I definitely get having ads within the app as I don’t pay anything for it, but the pop-ups are too much..Version: 3.1.0

Good tracker- terrible terrible advice!I love this app for the ability to track everything from sleep to feedings, even nappies. BUT what frustrates the hell out of me is ever single other part of the app! There’s SO much outdated stuff in this app from articles about crying it out (which is now NOT recommended by leading experts) to advice on withholding high allergen foods (which has been proven to increase the occurrence of food allergies) to “advice” designed to scare and intimidate new mothers into doing things a certain way (usually an outdated or sometimes a strict and regimented dangerous way). I don’t ever use the community stuff, which is never monitored anyway and there’s a lot of weird stuff there, and I stopped reading the articles after they started upsetting me. But I do use the chart for logging feeds and sleeps. I should change to another app though and probably will to be honest..Version: 1.12

Was good until they started monetizing everythingI’ve been using glow baby for almost 3 years (now for 2nd child). Was happy with all the free functionality and have been recommending it to various people. Up til now. They’ve now put the pattern chart behind the premium paywall when this has been available for free the whole time I’ve been using this app. Maybe it’s finally time to move to another app. Makes me sad to think that all the data we put in over the years is now no longer available unless we pay..Version: 2.19.2
