WebMD Pregnancy for Negative User Reviews
✓ DisappointedWas fairly useful but there is no facility to reset or delete data, so have had to delete..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Rubbish start up but good appGood app but it keeps making me enter all the details like due date or lmp etc everytime I exit the app and come back.Version: 1.1
✓ Wouldn't knowWouldn't even let me sign up. Awesome..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Doesn't workApp won't let me sign in so it doesn't work. Says I need a connection... Which I have. Please fix..Version: 1.2.1
✓ They sell your personal information and you can’t opt out.I’m disgusted that they not only sell your information but don’t give you a choice to opt out if that. I do not give permission! They knowingly take advantage of women looking for a good pregnancy app to sell their info!.Version: 2.5
✓ Poor qualityThe only benefit to this app is that there is an option to add multiple’s in your pregnancy. Other than that... the people using this app post inappropriate questions on the forums, and the information on the “what to expect” App is better in my opinion. Also, they bombard you with emails..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Won't let me sign upWaste of time. Said I needed a connection to sign up. I have a stable internet connection. Deleting it off my phone now. What a waste of time!!.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Has crashed repeatedly and none of the feedback options workI just downloaded and I can’t use it. It has crashed 10x or more, the feedback link won’t load. I tried responding to the email provided in the welcome email and it was kicked back as undeliverable. Thumbs down..Version: 2.1
✓ Waste of timeDoesn't let me sign up forcing me to watch that video endlessly saying no connection which I have of course.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Not workingWouldn't let me sign up, so I don't know if it's any good 😟.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Not everyone is EXACTLY the same.This app asks when my last known period was Then calculates the due date. I know exactly when my last period was I know exactly when I ovulated and I know exactly what my due date is (confirmed by the doctor). However it only allows for people who have a 28 day cycle where they have there period then ovulate EXACTLY 14 days later. When I change the due date it changes when I started my period. Also, more than once this app has told me that it is not OK to eat brie cheese. That is COMPLETELY incorrect. You shouldn’t eat unpasteurized food! Soft cheese is fine so long as it’s pasteurized. It’s emphasizing the cheese and not the fact that it’s unpasteurized..Version: 2.1
✓ Crashes all the timeI love the app but you can’t read any article or do anything other than look at the basic information without it crashing. And then I click “always send” for the crash report and it still asks me every time it crashes if I want to send a crash report. It’s been like this for months. Fix it!!.Version: 2.0.8
✓ Couldn't sign inAt the point in the app that it asks for an email and password , I type in my password twice as it requests and it always says it's wrong even though I am being careful ... The second attempt to sign in it told me my emails didn't match ( you have to enter it twice ) WHEN THEY CLEARLY DID! Something is up and I can't sign in cuz it keeps telling my email it entered incorrectly ......Version: 1.2.1
✓ Inaccurate sizing of babyI use this app along with a book I am reading. I love the slideshows those are amazing and fun to see well by week. My biggest complaint is the size given for each week. At 17 weeks it Is telling me my baby is 7 inches long when every single other resource I looked at (books and online to triple check) all started the baby would only be about 5 - 5 3/4 inches long. I checked the next several weeks after and found the info just as inaccurate unfortunately. Please fix this error for baby sizing. I am not sure why it is not matching up with other reputable sources..Version: 2.9.1
✓ Okay but can’t see all of the text it’s too bigWhy is the text so ridiculously large? It’s hard and annoying to even read the weekly updates. I’m only keeping this app for the kick counter and nothing else..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Assumes every parents is “mainstream”This app gives VERY little information on breastfeeding and when discussing supplies you will need for baby always first assumes bottle feeding. There is zero mention of cloth diapering- only disposable There is zero mention of home birthing or midwife care. Every week says “what to expect at your DOCTORS appointment” There are pages and pages of information on pain control but no mention of natural birthing methods. There is no discussion of circumcision or that it is a CHOICE that parents make. It only says things like “make sure you have gauze and vaseline to care for a circumcision” There is no information whatsoever on what to expect in the moments after baby is born- such as antibiotic ointment in their eyes, vitamin K injections, who cuts the cord and how long to wait until you cut the cord, Skin to skin, who bathes baby, not retracting an intact foreskin, how soon to breastfeed, how soon to pump, etc. This app is clearly geared towards brainwashed American consumers!.Version: 2.5
✓ Great except for one thing...I really liked that I could specify that I was having twins and get specific information on that since not a lot of apps have that option. However, today when I opened the app, the first thing I'm told is the "Word of the Day" is Vanishing Twin Syndrome and it goes on to explain the term. Seriously?!? Do I really need to be stressed out about this happening by an app?? And getting a reminder that something could happen - and having it pop up as a "reminder". Please update this app and keep things positive. We are all aware that you can miscarry and lose one baby if you are carrying twins. This app is the last place I wanted to be reminded of this yet again..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Error!!I'm at home in WiFi and keep getting the Error message when i try to read under the community section. Plus i wish there could be more photos of multiples!.Version: 2.1
✓ Inappropriate advertisingI’ve used this app during both of my pregnancies, but I’ve recently noticed a large number to advertisements for weight loss programs. One particular ad has a person with a pregnant shape and then suggested meals to correct this problem. Women do not need to see this type of ad ever, especially while pregnant. The app needs to take better care to screen advertisements.Version: 2.7
✓ SucksFails to register. App doesn't work..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Ms.Good app, but be very careful of some of the information it has on there as it is unsafe. My healthcare provider couldn’t believe some of the information that was on here....Version: 2.0.11
✓ Very Informative, App could use UpgradeReally love how informative every week is and it’s my go-to app with pregnancies. The app isn’t exactly the sleekest, they could use some developers to spruce things up a bit. There’s a couple of annoying bugs: if you accidentally added a baby twice you can’t just delete it. You have to mark it as a loss which is annoying. Otherwise the info and resources have been good..Version: 2.9.1
✓ Better before the updateI made the mistake of updating this app The "update" was advertising Now the app is super slow because it is trying to source the advertising from the Internet(before only one or two things actually required access and it was fast) Overall it is a great idea, but given the upgrade I might just delete it and look for a different app.Version: 1.2
✓ Crashes uncontrollablyAnd constantly... not usable.Version: 2.1
✓ Not greatMany links in the resources content take you to incorrect information. For instance “cramping” links you to a WebMD page about charley horses. Another link mentions 8 signs of labor but takes you to an odd video of a woman and man talking about how women used to urinate on rabbits to determine if they were pregnant. I found this app odd and disappointing..Version: 2.5
✓ Great app but doesn't save infoI just transferred phones and was VERY disappointed to learn that I lost all my pregnancy notes and symptoms after signing in on my new phone. Of all my apps, this was the only one that didn't automatically back up my profile :(.Version: 1.2.1
✓ AnnoyingThis app won’t let me put the accurate date of when my first pregnancy ended upon the birth of the baby. I didn’t update it at the time, but now when I try to add her may 2018 Birthday it automatically resets to the current date and won’t let me update. Also, I am pregnant again and I tried to add baby #2 but it just keeps showing me 42 weeks pregnant. I couldn’t figure out how to delete the other pregnancy so I can just see this one. I updated the app and still have this issues. Unless it is resolved soon I will be deleting this app. I found it very helpful the first time around but this is just frustrating..Version: 2.1
✓ Allows for multiples, but MAJOR typo at wk 16I love that I am able to customize this app for my twins; however, once I got to week 16, there is a major mistake in the documented length of my babies. The app says they measure at 7 inches, in reality, they are 3.5-4 inches. Unfortunately, the mistake affects the subsequent weeks as well. If the developers fix this, it would be a 5-star app, but as it is now, it becomes unreliable after the firth trimester..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Graphics are poorThe baby looks very computerized. They could work on that better, so you could see growth week by week of what actually looks like a human baby..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Won't registerThe app just stays at the "Registering ...." page and won't advance. Deleted it and downloaded some others.Version: 1.2.2
✓ Does not work properlyTried to launch the app, but you can use it unless you register, and it won't let you register. Emails don't match, passwords don't match, user name not valid, birthday invalid. This goes on in circles until you finally want to throw you device across the room! There should be an option to use as guest like so many other apps do. This was unbelievably frustrating!!.Version: 1.2
✓ None of the content worksAll I get is url errors whichever part of the app I try. V disappointing.Version: 2.3
✓ Can't sign upKeeps telling me I have password or email error when I don't. Even though I've tried 5 times to sign up and have been unsuccessful, it still asks me to rate the app? Disappointing..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Crash Crash and full of crashPlease remove this app from App Store till you fix your app. It is absolutely unusable. Every time I click on link, it crashes. I was trying to be helpful for last two weeks by keep sending you guys crash report. Do your developers have any dignity? How can you have such unstable app in store for so long..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Glitches a lotWhenever I try to click on a link, article or video it shuts down the whole app. Won’t let me watch or read anything. I like all the tools on it that I can use though. I also don’t like that I can’t delete options on the checklist for packing a bag for the hospital. I can only edit the items I add to the list but the ones already included as suggestions on the app I can’t remove or edit..Version: 2.5
✓ Can not log inKeeps telling me I am not connected when I am. 😭.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Can't sign up with the appI've tried to sign up for this app 5 or 6 times now but each time it says my email address doesn't match or my password doesn't match, I keep retyping it even though I don't see any mistakes and still the same error. I'm fed up with it and I will try a different app..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Constantly crashingI was really excited about this app but then as I started exploring it by clicking on articles and different things, the app would close. It’s not helpful when you go to click on something for information and things you are excited to learn about pregnancy but you can’t see it because every time you do the app shuts down. Very disappointing.Version: 2.1
✓ Impossible to useI downloaded the app to check it out and somehow it thought I was pregnant. There’s no way to edit your dates making it impossible to use. I even said a baby was born just to try and start a new cycle where I could edit that I’m not pregnant or to put in my cycle info but nope I’m in my first week according to the app. I even emailed support and they were no help! Really disappointed..Version: 2.5
✓ Sign up function very poorly designedSpent ten minutes trying to get this working and deleted it..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Would not let me sign upThis app is useless as it does not let me sign up and forces me to watch a video.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Nothing but spamThe chat groups are full of spam crap. It's annoying so don't use the app.Version: 2.0.6
✓ HUGE PRIVACY VIOLATORSI signed up for the app during my first pregnancy in 2020. Unfortunately, I had a miscarriage. This company provided my information to SEVERAL solicitors. When the baby was supposed to be due, I received multiple “care packages” of baby item samples. This was disheartening to say the least. Be cautious providing this company with your personal information. I was NOT informed by due date, name, and home address would be shared. If I could provide negative stars, I would..Version: 2.8
✓ Little buggy & could be more user friendlyThe app overall is OK. It could be a little more user friendly and give moms to be the reassurance they need in colloquial terms rather than it being like a medical journal. Also, while the contraction timer is a good tool to use, the Frequency/Interval calculator is completely off. 12pm - 11:50pm(of the same day) is a nearly 12 hour span. Not 40 minutes. That needs to get fixed. Other than that, like I said, it’s alright, but not the greatest..Version: 2.5
✓ HIPAA Violations Much?The idea of this app is great. The articles are informative. The interactive nature of it is engaging and helpful. That said, the terms of service and privacy policy clearly state that this app will harvest every bit of information it can from you even if you don’t create a WebMD account. Moreover WebMD will use that harvested information to sell you things. They will also sell your information to anyone willing to buy it. And to make matters worse, the only place you can find the term HIPAA on their website is an article that states what it means. They don’t follow HIPAA standards. They harvest and sell you information to advertisers for products they know you will be buying based on your private health information you are giving them. Also, when flipping through the slides in the user interface if you select one, read the article, and then go back, the app starts you back at the first slide every time. I would give it five stars if it weren’t for the UX issues and the creepy, corporate greed driven privacy violations companies like WebMD are somehow immune from adhering to because “it’s in the terms of service.”.Version: 2.1
✓ AwfulCouldn't even log on. Asked for loads of info, even my birthday. Then kept saying my emails didn't match. I re-typed several times with no luck, then copy and paste!!! Still no joy. Full of bugs! Deleted!.Version: 1.2
✓ Ok but problemsThe app is ok but I find that it is one week off on my pregnancy: the doctor confirmed yesterday that I have just completed six weeks while the app tells me I am five weeks, going into my sixth. Both my doc and the app have the same due date and date of first day of last period, so I will look for another app that is more accurate..Version: 1.2.1
✓ StupidWon't let me sign up, very annoying..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Articles are Great, but App Loads StrangeInformation provided on the app is great. The only thing I don’t like is that the week I am in loads weird on my phone. The articles and tabs don’t fit on my screen to ratio unless I scroll to the next week, then scroll back to my current week. If the developers of this app would like to reach out to me, I can send them screenshots of what exactly I am seeing..Version: 2.0.11
