Pregnancy Tracker - BabyCenter for Negative User Reviews
✓ Can’t do anything.In past pregnancy’s I’ve been able to post my questions check baby find little information out and most importantly get involved in the community groups. This is was really helped me especially with my youngest. I’ve gone back on and now I can even join in the community it keeps asking me for a username/member name which I already have so I can’t create posts or comment on anything unless I’m on the computer which isn’t ideal especially when out and about and having a quick browse through the day. I e tried just making note or trying to remover what I wanted to ask but by time I’m home and logged my computer on it’s gone. Not impressed at all with the app pointless download..Version: 4.7.0
✓ Do not trust this app!!!I took all my pregnancy update photos from 12 weeks, every week religiously. I changed to a new phone, logged into my baby centre app account and all the photos were wiped!!! The response of these developers?? Sorry there’s a glitch in the app that we are working on, sorry for the INCONVENIENCE! Oh inconvenience?? Let me just go back in time and take my weekly pregnancy bumpies again... so appalled by their response. I will never get these precious photos back and I am absolutely gutted. Whatever you do, don’t trust this app to keep your precious bump photos safe!! I wanted to have these photos in my baby’s photo book when she arrives, now I have NOTHING!.Version: 3.23.2
✓ Not well organized and hackedIt gets two stars because I like the community but it’s not well organized. It’s hard to follow threads and it’s hard to find different groups and it’s hard to go back and see a comment that you made. It doesn’t show you your comments. It just shows original posts that you’ve made. It won’t let you erase notifications. That would be helpful so you can delete the reminders if there was a TROLL on one of your boards. Oh it also doesn’t consider photos of discharge as inappropriate. In glow they require the poster to mark the photo sensitive so those who WANT to help the person out and view the photo can click on it. But in baby center you’re forced to look at it which stinks because sometimes you have to scroll past to find an old comment. I also think it’s hacked. Fake ATT winning spree things keep popping up INLY in that app then shut down everything I was working on. I have an iPhone. It’s pretty well protected and I don’t have that issue with any other app or even online. So that needs to be fixed. The app needs A LOT of help.Version: 3.22.2
✓ I preferred the previous versionI’m disappointed with the new layout. It seems there is less articles and I used to like to be able to browse through the weekly content. It’s just not as conviennent or user friendly anymore..Version: 4.4.0
✓ Liked it, until…It’s a real shame, as I have so far really liked this app, much more than the other apps out there, however… on discovering that I am pregnant with twins, went in to the settings to update my pregnancy to twins, only to discover that this is not an option. Honestly, in this day and age how hard is it to add the option for twins or multiples? I don’t think twins are that rare these days are they? Disappointingly there seems to be a real lack of apps out their to support mothers of multiples, would love to see an app that is truly customisable for this, also giving the option to put whether each child is fraternal or identical etc, and showing images and drawings that match your particular number of multiples. C’mon app developers 🤞.Version: 4.15.3
✓ The creators of this tried...The women on this app are brutal and extremely rude and insulting and board owners take part in the harsh words as well (they should be neutral and just oversee things, not actually contribute). Wish it was monitored to create a community of support, instead it seems to function more like Facebook for high schoolers because the women feel the need to attack the others (I don’t have Facebook for this reason). Lots of close minded individuals on here that don’t know when to keep their one track mindedness to themselves. Besides from the participants of the site, it’s structured to be a bit more old school in medical information and advice. Not really giving the most accurate info but I guess its based on generalizing anyway in an attempt to appeal to more moms. If your a non vaxer... good luck to you on here. No info is provided about that aspect, only pro vaccine and if you bring it up, the other moms attack. Not really the most pleasant app but I see the good intent and that’s why I keep it. Good for tracking how far along you are in your pregnancy (which I guess you can use a calendar for). It’s a good app, but could most definitely use more work..Version: 3.20.0
✓ Deleted Profiles.I got pregnant with my son in 2019 and was immediately drawn to this app, i loved it so much. I loved how it kept up with your pregnancy so well and all the facts it gave and every week I would read and see how big my baby was. I ESPECIALLY loved taking the bumpies and seeing how big I was getting. When I was about 32 weeks, I got on to read about my baby and I was logged out, I logged back in only to see my entire profile was deleted :( all my pictures everything was gone. I was super bummed about it. Now I am pregnant again with my second. I decided to give the app another try just because I loved it so much. I just recently tried to send one of my family members my most recent bump picture only to find out I was logged out my account yet again and when I logged back in my entire profile, pictures and all is GONE!!! I am so frustrated, I don’t understand why it keeps happening. There was other minor things that would happen with the app but by far the most frustrating thing is having my profiles deleted for whatever reason, and i’m not sure if there’s a way to get any of it restored..Version: 4.19.2
✓ Some questionable info...Overall informative app but Do take some posts with a pinch of salt as they are often someone’s opinion not medical fact i.e stating that a woman cannot fall pregnant before her periods have returned. Medical fact: yes she can. How else do siblings with a ten- 12 month age gap happen? Also a post titled : things that nobody tells you when you are pregnant article? This states that the smell of a newborn baby is, and I quote “vile” and apparently and again, I quote “pieces of umbilical cord fall out of a women for weeks after birth “??? Seriously?!? There is no physical way this is even possible. It’s utterly ludicrous, on so many levels. Now I know this, but other more impressionable pregnant girls/ women who download this app may not be aware that the information on there is not medically checked. Please Babycentre, edit and check your posts. Otherwise good app..Version: 3.19.0
✓ App good content but community groups are awfulThe chat groups in here are full of people posting nasty photos of vaginal discharge, bloodied underwear and saying things like “911 what should I do?” The discussions are often unsupportive or downright mean to posters. There is no report function if you are concerned with a post or worried about content and the groups are overall very poorly, if at all managed. Advice is often dangerous and it seems to be used instead of seeking proper medical help..Version: 3.23.2
✓ AnnoyedI downloaded the app (which does have great information), but started receiving daily emails. When I tried to unsubscribe it was very difficult and did not work. I tried to unsubscribe 3 times and finally ended up emailing them to get them to take me off of their mailing list. They did this and it worked for about 4 days and I have now started receiving emails again- even though I never signed up for emails- all I did was download the app. I have now deleted the app 👎🏻.Version: 3.13.0
✓ EhThis is my first pregnancy so I’m interested in all advice and knowledge. I also like seeing what my baby looks like daily. This a personal preference and this app doesn’t really show images of what the baby looks like daily other than a video you can click on here and there. Also, the forums are confusing, they aren’t laid out self explanatory. I work in a technology store I’m actually a mobile expert and the way the forums are set up in the app are confusing. It says start a baby club where you can essentially talk to others, but there is no set button to do so and if you do find where to post it just prompts you to post and you have no idea where exactly that post is going. There are forums on top of forums and really only places to reply to people who have already posted somehow. Idk the interface and display wasn’t really satisfying to me, i had the app for two days and deleted. I downloaded another app that shows beautiful digital images of what the baby can look like daily and also get advice and talk to others. This app has a good concept but doesn’t really seem well thought out, user friendly wise..Version: 3.19.1
✓ Bumpie photosThe bumpie photos in tools is terrible. Have to keep uploading the pictures because they don’t save all the time and somethings they just turn out white when trying to go through them..Version: 4.19.2
✓ Update doesn’t workI updated the app and now it doesn’t work. Nothing is visible on the baby size or weekly updates, this was fine before the update. Also, earlier this year during my last pregnancy I experienced a loss and there’s no option to register a baby loss. You have to delete your child and all their data which feels a bit brutal, register a birth which will then lead to lots of congratulations emails and updates about your baby’s age or continue to get “you’re x number of weeks pregnant” updates. Other apps I used allowed me to register my loss so I could keep my baby’s data but not get updates, so I was disappointed that what’s considered the leading app did not. I emailed customer support to ask about this and got no response..Version: 4.3.1
✓ One sided and outdated infoAs a first time mum and not knowing much of what I was doing in the start I thought the app was helpful as some sort of guidance. Nowadays after having a quite difficult baby and reading and learning a lot about child development I can see the info provided is often outdated and limited. For example, even though they don’t push this sort of opinion down your throat they do suggest options of sleep training rather than explaining and normalizing infant “normal” sleep and explaining why babies sleep like they do. This week I got an email suggesting time outs for a 2 year old and I was shocked as I know for a fact this could never work positively for any child can you imagine for a 2yo. That’s why I’m writing this review. If you are an inexperienced mumma do your own research, and maybe just use the app as a guide. Always make your own mind up and listen to your child. Learning about their brain development and why they act the way they do was extremely important for me as a mum.Version: 3.23.3
✓ Miscarriage SupportI had a miscarriage and I had to delete my pregnancy from your app. 1- it’s horrible that the app doesn’t have any miscarriage support like my other apps do and you can’t even use the app unless you log that you are currently pregnant. Once you delete a pregnancy it just kicks you out. 2- I keep getting their emails for daily digest including things such as “I heard my baby’s heartbeat and I’m in awe!” That I received today. I would have LOVED to hear the heartbeat but instead I was told there wasn’t one. It was so painful to read that. My other pregnancy apps immediately stopped sending me these emails and instead sent me emails for miscarriage support articles. 3- even though I deleted the pregnancy from the app. I got a notification on my phone today updating me on my baby’s growth, how my baby SHOULD have grown by now. Again, my other apps obviously stopped doing this knowing how painful it is to see that after a miscarriage. 1/4 pregnancies end in miscarriage and this app is HORRIBLE at helping women through this. If anything it has made my miscarriage experience more painful. Whoever created this app has apparently never had or thought of someone who has had a miscarriage. It’s horrible painful and very insensitive of them. I’m already broken enough over this, and this app has made it worse..Version: 4.1.0
✓ Great app, bad ads.My baby turned one year old yesterday. I turned in the app, excited to read some more but it was still on page 11 month, 4 weeks. No further information, no celebratory message for growing with them for a year, no recommendation for the years to come, no farewell message, nothing. You'd think, if everything comes to an end on the app, that they would maybe give us an ending of some sort? I guess I'll just delete it now. Thanks for being an almost daily visit for nearly two years. Byyye... -original review follows. I have had a great time with this app. Very useful articles and videos and I love the polls and progression. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to watch videos lately, in my last month, when videos are teaching me a lot. Why? Because I'm guessing you don't screen the ads that are used. I've had to avoid scary things my whole pregnancy because these hormones give me terrible nightmares. I also have a phobia of dolls. So imagine my dismay when every time I open a video lately, it starts with a trailer for upcoming movies that feature killer dolls. Fun... So now I'm missing out on informative videos that I really want to watch and could learn so much from..Version: 4.3.0
✓ Good weekly info, stats in stupid unitsI love the weekly information about how the foetus is developing, and the community is good. I just wish the statistics for baby size were in metric units. They’ve somehow done the estimated length in cm but the weight in pounds?! I have to convert it on my calculator every week, which is really annoying and makes the app less enjoyable. Nobody looking at length in cm wants weight in lbs. You should have the option to switch from Imperial to metric units, or it should all be in metric units because I got it in the Australian App store, not the American one..Version: 4.17.1
✓ So many glitches and errors.I’ve contact Baby Centre a few times as their app has so many glitches and each reply is a generic “sorry this was your experience reply”. Despite entering the correct due date, my dates were always wrong and after bringing it to their attention it appears they have removed that from their app instead of fixing it. I’ve also had issues with the measurements and weights not lining up (I picked metric and measurements are cm but weight is in oz). Then there is the fact that the birth club forum is hard to navigate. It’s a shame as the app has gone downhill from the first time I used it earlier in 2020. I will be finding one that works..Version: 4.5.3
✓ Full of bullies in Community sectionA bunch of aggressive bullies in the community forum section who keep picking at you and others even when you try to ignore them. I’ve seen these woke bullies harassing other mothers who comment and express an opinion different from them. Some of these bullies have attacked me too when I’ve stepped in to defend innocent women. Moderators are too slow to act, that is, if they act at all, which 99% of the time they don’t. Seriously don’t bother. This app is not worth it. There are better apps out there in terms of providing info about your baby’s growth and offering community support. Also, many a times when you click on a link to read an article, a blank page is loaded and the article never appears! I would give this app zero stars if I could..Version: 4.25.0
✓ Went wokeThey switched from alternating articles describing your baby as ‘he’ one day to ‘she’ the next. Now it’s ‘they’ in every article so it is very impersonal and you’re just left disgusted that even a baby development app is trying to come for your kids and give them mental illness by confusing them about basic human biology..Version: 4.19.0
✓ Great until they reach oneThis app is great and has been a fantastic help while we watched our first child grow. It has all sorts of great info and tips but the app stops being useful once they reach one year old whereby it stops updating information. From that point in time you are best off using the website and emails. Other than that if this is your first child or even if you want to know if you could have done things better for your next child you need this app..Version: 3.14.1
✓ Previous version was better!Great app with lots of helpful info, tips and videos! But I really liked the previous version, ever since the app was updated there’s less information, more adds, I don’t like it at all. I keep checking the app less actually, before I used to scroll and see what’s ahead or remember what it was like in the beginning when my baby was little....Version: 4.5.0
✓ Don’t bother until fixed!This app was amazing, it had advice and tips for pregnant woman and parents. I used it daily to connect with other pregnant woman during my pregnancy and for help and advice since my baby was born. Especially during these strange corona times it was a lifeline! Then they decided to do an update!! It’s now not user friendly, it doesn’t update, and to be frank just a drain on my phones memory. Basic functions do not work and the community boards which were a god send in those lonely times now just cause you stress trying to make them work/load. Personally I wouldn’t recommend this app until this update is fixed or it reverts back to the perfectly working great version it was before..Version: 4.10.0
✓ Bunch of bulliesDont bother with the ‘community’ chat!!! They are a bunch of 2faced bullies who gang up on everyone with a different opinion to them. Even MODS get in on the bullying act. Ive been a member several times now over the last few yrs, in recent times i have found a particularly hateful user named Eilyka to hold a personal grudge against me and continue to attack my character, as early as this morning she has insulted myself and my children just because i hold a different view to her. In recent months i have watched this user attack and belittle other members to the point where she gets herself banned, at which point she openly uses a second account to continue her taunting and attacks, this is not only against forum rules but it is also underhanded. Moderators turn a blind eye to her behaviour and Linda has repeatedly unblocked her and banned the members she has degraded and attacked. This is totally unacceptable and im deleting this joke of a ‘community’ that is allowed to be so vile. The constant criticism of christians is also pathetic. Religious hate is not tolerated by me..Version: 3.21.1
✓ Annoying after updateI used to love this app, used it since I found out I was pregnant and still use it now that baby is 7 months old. But since the last update there are some really annoying things that make me not use this app anymore. The 2 most annoying things are that every time I open a topic, I can’t return to all the topics together, it takes me to the homepage, so have to select chats again to go back to all the topics. Another annoying thing is I can’t mark a conversation i want to get notifications from anymore. Sometimes you click on something and something completely different opens. I used to go on this app daily but now it’s just annoying me..Version: 4.10.0
✓ Not correct and keeping track of date and more very disappointed with the appI just downloaded this app to track size and the right days and weeks so can keep close eye on how far I am to my due date of March 26, 2021 as of yesterday aug 4, 2020 I was 6 weeks and 4 days I got on it today to see if it is calculating correctly and yet it still had aug 4th when today is aug 5th and so I tried to refresh it wouldn’t then I went to feedback and settings and back to home page it did end changing the date to correct date which is aug 5th but still states I’m 6 weeks and 4 days when the correct number of weeks and days for aug 5th would be 6 weeks and 5 days not 4 days for that was yesterday I know I went to my doctor yesterday so it should refresh every day and state correct date as well as correct week and day of how far along I are if nothing gets done about this I’ll recommend others to use an different app and not this one for it lacks right information and doesn’t refresh like should or when move page up to refresh and I will delete and find an better working app that is correct and works great and does refresh and has correct date and right weeks and days as well as days left til due date too for that effects things like baby weight size growth information and etc if isn’t correct on weeks days nor the right date and doesn’t refresh and lacks on the app and it is very important for people expecting to know the correct things.Version: 4.5.0
✓ Title of article has really let this app downI did really like this app as the birthing community is great and you can get advice and support from others mums out there. However, I am really disappointed in the title of one article that came up in my daily feed which was ‘breastfed is best for your baby’ I can not put into words how angry this has made me as it is incredibly insensitive to those who can not for whatever reason breastfeed. Fed is always best and a mother’s mental health is just as important as a baby being fed however way it is. If formula was so terrible and bad for a baby, you wouldn’t be able to buy it from a shop. Bring a baby app, you should be mentioning benefits of feeding your baby either way, not singling those who can’t put and possibly making them feel bad and like they aren’t doing enough. Your target audience are already women that are in vulnerable positions so adding fuel to a mother who feels they are not able to provide the best for their child is terrible. It really is a shame….Version: 4.15.1
✓ BROKEN!!This app worked for less than a week and now suddenly it’s completely stopped working. I thought it was maybe due an update but nothing. I deleted the app and reinstalled it but still nothing. Contacted them and they said it’s an ongoing problem ... ongoing?? Fix it maybe? I think personally there are better apps out there for pregnancy tracking and advice I wouldn’t recommend this one at all! I waited for 4 days for the ‘ongoing problem’ to be fixed and nothing has happened. Clearly it’s not an issue for everyone as people are still posting on there but customer services say they are aware of the problem? How can it just be for a few people?? It’s a no from me.Version: 3.15.2
✓ Further traumaI suffered a miscarriage and the only option to change my pregnancy status was to ‘delete this child’ from my family. Then, in a show of complete insensitivity, a message requests I confirm I’d ‘like to delete my child’s milestones and photos’. I’m further distressed and traumatised after this experience. I can’t imagine what this would be like for a mother trying to cope with a stillbirth. Other pregnancy apps offered at least options to change my pregnancy status, then compassion, support and helpful information based on my response. If / when I become pregnant again, I won’t be using this app..Version: 4.26.0
✓ Nice app, but shows blank page when I click on baby centre and redirects to the appThe information provided us really informative and helpful for new parents. I would like to report an issue I encounter when email links from baby centre app are clicked. I would expect the app to show the page , but instead it comes up as blank page. This is not helpful as I would love to read up on the links sent by email but the app does not open the page at all..Version: 4.15.3
✓ Please add feature2 years ago I submitted a review and was emailed in response. I was pleased that my review had been read and I was hopeful that it would be actioned upon. Pregnant again, I am saddened to see that no changes were implemented. This app needs an option for the sad even of a stillbirth. There are 6 babies stillborn everyday in Australia. This app is an incredibly popular app amongst pregnant mothers, this means that mothers are confronted with having to select that their baby has arrived with a joyful animation of a baby and celebrations with the text ‘enjoy the snuggles’. To see this, when you have just delivered your deceased baby is horrible. Parents then have a choice- to either delete that child from the app (imagine deleting your child because they died...) or pretend that their baby was fine and enter their details and have milestone emails continue to be sent. A constant reminder that you buried your precious baby, and no they aren’t starting solids.... this impacts and adds to trauma. PLEASE add an option where you can select that your baby was born but grew it’s angel wings. Associated emails could then have targeted support, like links to Red Nose, stillbirth foundation and bears of hope. Please make the right change, for the sake of helping reduce the impacts of trauma. I truly hope to hear back from you and see changes to your app. Rose.Version: 4.10.0
✓ Very AmericanThe app now has issues when trying to upload “bumpie” photos. The app now crops photos randomly and makes it difficult to zoom in/out when editing to get the right fit for the gallery. Have to keep trying and redoing it over and over again until, by chance, I get one that looks good. It didn’t used to be like this. The app is ok for tracking your pregnancy milestones but it has lots of American information, which is useless for New Zealand women. The comparison of foetus size to a vegetable is a cute idea but again, a lot of foods that we either don’t have here, or we call them something different. And what makes it extra confusing they’re obviously making size comparisons based on weight of the vegetable only. Would be handy to have a length comparison too..Version: 3.14.0
✓ Horrible app DO NOT GET!!!!This app is not good. Cyber bullying is encouraged on here!!! The actual baby center community guidelines are not followed and the group owners since they are not paid will pick and chose who to support even if another member literally harasses you and attack you. And even when they admit or see violations by these bully’s they literally do nothing about it. They allow the exact same ones to bully the ladies here and they go back and forth to different month boards bullying others on those too. Nothing is done about it. Their customer service will ignore you and your concerns and only responds with a short reply when you end up having to resend email over and over. Horrible customer service and horrible set up and a horrible place for moms who need support as they end up getting harassed, torn down, belittled, insulted, judged by the bully’s baby centers support and back up. I will be sharing this info on my social media as well to warn others not to get. I will be using other pregnancy apps to support my pregnancy with fair guidelines and not ones that are made to treat others with discrimination and unfair treatment..Version: 3.21.1
✓ Community part needs massive updateGreat, informative, gives you comprehensive information on many topics. The updates are fantastic. I love the idea of the community centre but gosh it’s so not user friendly. If you browse the posts and click on something, it throws you back on the first page. Messaging a member is a pain in the neck - no idea where to go to answer them. It’s slow and outdated. I understand you don’t want people to form Facebook groups to maintain conversations on another platform but this horrible platform is so bad that people rather won’t talk then struggle their way here. You need to develop it into a usable forum..Version: 3.23.2
✓ Great info but has a key glitchI really like the info on this app but am getting really frustrated. For whatever reason my due date won’t enter properly. When I put 1 October it updates to 1 September. This is a key problem because all of the hood info the app has is significantly far ahead for me.Version: 4.19.2
✓ Chat group is horribleI would put 0 stars if I could. If you want to leave your opinion, your comment may be deleted if it doesn’t follow certain guidelines. I suggested that someone wait till after their pregnancy to get the Covid vaccine and I got an email saying I was disturbing the community. How was I disturbing the community? I am just trying to help. I know someone who lost their baby after getting the Covid vaccine. It’s not worth my time to have this app that deletes people’s comments. Someone could be trying to help you, but their comment is deleted. I am going to delete my account because I am not going to take part in an app that deletes comments in the chat. People should have the right to help people, even if it means it could be a different solution than everyone else has. The last thing I would want to do is disturb the community. I just think it is a not good idea to get a vaccine that isn’t studied enough and is experimental, especially while pregnant. I am entitled to have my own educated opinion on this subject. I guess people who review the comments don’t like that..Version: 4.15.3
