1. [R6] The Bump 3/5 · US Love the app, hate the glitches: I love the feeding tracker but the timer frequently jumps numbers and sometimes even after I’ve paused one side and started timing the other breast, the timer will run on both breasts. And of course it always happens at night when I really don’t feel like dealing with anything extra. I’ve tried closing the app and restarting it but this doesn’t always fix the issue
2. [R9] The Bump 3/5 · US Good app, if it works: I like the app when it works! It’s incredibly glitchy and takes a long time to load when opening.
3. [R13] The Bump 2/5 · US Not good anymore: Feels like the developers and owners abandoned it or something. A bunch of features are buggy or don’t work at all (like the 3D models), I’m regularly logged out and have to find my login info. It doesn’t update unless I force a restart, so I regularly open the app and get the wrong number of weeks which is the #1 thing the app is supposed to do: say how far along we are! Why doe
4. [R21] The Bump 3/5 · US Crashes daily: App locks me out/crashes daily and the estimates of fetal size are inconsistent. Otherwise very good
5. [R4] The Bump 1/5 · US Another couple’s info populated in my account: I just downloaded this app a few days ago and didn’t spend too much time looking around until today. I noticed that the initial in the top right corner that indicates the user’s name didn’t match my first name, so I went into the account details. Another person’s full name (not in any way related to my own) is in the “My Account” fields, and another f
6. [R10] The Bump 1/5 · US Need to fix: The app keeps logging me out, which is really frustrating. Also all the journals disappeared when it upgraded automatically and no where to be found.
7. [R18] The Bump 3/5 · US Auto Log out: I like the app for articles and the 3D imaging of the fetus development each week, but it logs me out automatically at times. Like many people, I’m can’t keep track of all of the logins I have, so it’s a big hassle to try to log back in. I also don’t like the community chat layout. It’s hard to navigate. The one in Ovia is better.
8. [R1] The Bump 1/5 · US Annoying: I got this app and thought it was helpful to have while tracking my pregnancy. Until I clicked on an article that discussed learning about the gender of the baby. Within the article it had a whole paragraph describing how gender and sex are different terms. Which, is not biologically true nor was this ever true. This type of agenda should not be pushed within articles on pregnancy tracki
9. [R3] The Bump 3/5 · US It’s just ok: I like that it gives daily updates of how big baby is but it gets very confusing. For example, I’m 12 weeks and baby is supposed to be the size of a lime, however on like the daily facts it says that the baby is as long as the diameter of a golf ball. Those are two VERY different sizes. This is my first baby and if I have a second I probably would not download this again.
10. [R7] The Bump 1/5 · US Glitches & Inaccuracy: It will glitch often and you’ll be stuck at the Home Screen. Also refers to breast feeding as “chest feeding” and calls us women “pregnant people”
11. [R15] The Bump 3/5 · US Please fix!!Newest update has pregnancy showing a week ahead of actual week: Have enjoyed using this app to find out new weekly facts of pregnancy and baby’s growth. Since most recent update the app is showing that I am in a week ahead of where I am in my pregnancy.
12. [R16] The Bump 2/5 · US So Liberal: A “pregnant person” is a woman…. Just say woman.
13. [R19] The Bump 1/5 · US Pregnant Person: I encourage you to use biologically accurate language. Women experience pregnancy, and I can’t continue to support a platform that overlooks that truth. We are not pregnant “people”.
14. [R5] The Bump 5/5 · US Bug: Manual input doesn’t work
15. [R25] The Bump 4/5 · US Love it: I seriously love this app, it’s a very handy tool for so many different things. The one thing that I wish it had was more about twins. It allows you to select that you’re having twins in the set up, but doesn’t show two babies in the 3D images, there are also not as many twin articles. That said, still the best tracker app I’ve found thus far.
16. [R27] The Bump 4/5 · US Fun app for tracking baby’s development: I love reading about my baby’s development each week. That said, this app can be super buggy. For example, when I click on the “3D” model of baby, it never takes me there, and I have to try several more clicks to get it to load. There also have been some errors in content, such as listing baby’s weight in oz when it should clearly be pounds. But overall, I
17. [R52] Pregnancy Baby Tracker 5/5 · US Informative!: Not just a great tracker but informative too! Love the discussion boards as well!
18. [R53] Pregnancy Baby Tracker 3/5 · US Great Pregnancy Info, Baby Tracker Too Buggy to Use: I give the pregnancy tracker side of this app 4 stars. It’s easy to use and has a ton of helpful articles. (The article search could be better, but you figure out its quirks quickly.) Unfortunately, the baby tracker, which you will need once baby arrives to log your endless feedings and diapers, is buggy to the point of being unusable. Use this
19. [R54] Pregnancy Baby Tracker 1/5 · US This App is TOXIC!: I’ve seen other reviews stating the same issue about the moderators deleting people’s posts/comments if they don’t align with “the views of the moderators “ I have just become a victim of this toxic app. I had a different opinion about a subject in the community, non of my comments regarding my opinion were inappropriate, yet all of my comments were deleted! I’ve seen some very
20. [R56] Pregnancy Baby Tracker 3/5 · US It's okay: glitchy tracker: Ok the information they provide is pretty good. It really helped me understand what's going on during pregnancy. However, the tracker sucks. It glitches A LOT. Especially to add nursing time manually, it resets whatever I recorded when I touch either date, time, or nursing time. It really frustrates me with already exhausted and sleep deprived body. So for learning a
21. [R65] BabyCenter Pregnancy Tracker 1/5 · US Stop logging me out: Stop logging me out
22. [R66] BabyCenter Pregnancy Tracker 5/5 · US Great app: Great app I used it for all 5 of my children and it still gives me updates of each and every child’s milestones to this day by email & it gives you helpful information of what to expect at their age & much more helpful tips as a parent!
23. [R67] BabyCenter Pregnancy Tracker 5/5 · US So informative: I love tracking on this app it’s so informative and gives you so many tips and information to read on
24. [R68] BabyCenter Pregnancy Tracker 5/5 · US Return user!: I loved it during my first pregnancy and I m using it during my current pregnancy and enjoying it just as much.
25. [R79] Ovia Cycle & Pregnancy Tracker 1/5 · US Good until update: I like this app but the recent update messed up the counts on past cycles so now they all say 59 or 59 or whatever days.
26. [R81] Ovia Cycle & Pregnancy Tracker 3/5 · US HATE THE NEW UPDATE: I really enjoyed being able to customize the app using the cute color theme that have been available FOR YEARS. Why is it necessary to take the color and fun out of everything.
27. [R82] Ovia Cycle & Pregnancy Tracker 2/5 · US Bring themes back!: I liked the app until they took color themes away. Now I’m not happy. Why take them away? We needed more color options, not no color options. I also can’t stand the constant “pop ups” on the home page. I get they are kind of like reminders to track sleep, etc but it is annoying to have to hit the X five times to close all of them. Also, add more emotions. Half the time I don’
28. [R83] Ovia Cycle & Pregnancy Tracker 5/5 · US New User Ovia+: So far so good have been using the app for a month. Looking forward to seeing and learning trends over time. Easy interface design and able to enter info while on the go.
29. [R94] Pregnancy + | Tracker App 4/5 · US Woooooooow!!!: How real is this app!!!??? I love it!!!
30. [R95] Pregnancy + | Tracker App 3/5 · US One missing feature: I just wish I had to ability to add an additional pregnancy without needing to create a separate account, or overwrite my previous pregnancy data. It’s truly only missing this one feature but it would make a big difference in my overall enjoyment and use of the app. So 3 stars is where it’s at right now.
31. [R96] Pregnancy + | Tracker App 1/5 · US Sucks: Slow and laggy
32. [R97] Pregnancy + | Tracker App 5/5 · US Love love love: I’ve used this app with all 3 of my pregnancy and be anxious it gives me a little relief with updates every week spot on with how I feel for the most part love love love
33. [R107] Nurture Pregnancy Week by Week 2/5 · US Not able to obtain my old info: I started using this app back in 2018. I have all my old baby bump photos saved in here for all of my pregnancies now I cannot get any of them off because they decided to delete everything. It sucks because I truly wanted my photos.
34. [R108] Nurture Pregnancy Week by Week 4/5 · US No symptom tracking until 5 weeks.: This app is great and I love it-I have all of Glow’s apps. Warning to those who found out they were pregnant early like me: you cannot track symptoms until 5 weeks because apparently you wouldn’t have any symptoms until then… please do with that info what you will. I have, in the meantime, been tracking my symptoms in another app. Really unfortunate.
35. [R109] Nurture Pregnancy Week by Week 3/5 · US Ads, notifications, and sales: The app is nice the information is good. But even paying for premium I get tons of ads, my partner gets no access to our logs and I can’t turn off old notifications or ads. I also can’t add my latest bumpie it just won’t save. It’s super glitchy and getting more annoying by the week. It’s become more annoying than what I paid for which btw was the lifetime premium me
36. [R110] Nurture Pregnancy Week by Week 1/5 · US Unresponsive devs: Unable to login as a husband, but devs refuse to respond to emails. Even tried creating a new account as a pregnant woman, tells me email in use. Garbage customer service.
37. [R20] The Bump 5/5 · US Amazing free resource: Thank you for offering this information for free! It’s so helpful and surprising to find free support online these days! Great ap with loads of resources
38. [R50] The Bump 5/5 · US It’s real free: Great app and doesn’t want you to pay to share any article etc.
39. [R28] The Bump 2/5 · US Disappointing: Used it for my first pregnancy and it was great, never had any issues. 2 years later when I tried to add my second pregnancy I’ve had nothing but issues. Won’t properly display baby’s nickname (just blank), logs me out frequently, and error messages saying it can’t load data every other day. Never had a single one of these issues with my last pregnancy and thinking I will just delet
40. [R31] The Bump 5/5 · US Best by far: best free pregnancy apps! this app has provided so much helpful advice and information. i love everything about this app except how weird the daily facts are, for example it gives very weird comparisons for baby height and weight. “today your baby weighs as much as a 164 pack of diapers” who knows that off the top of their head??? please update with better facts people actually know!
41. [R32] The Bump 1/5 · US Glitch: Usually love this app and am using it for baby #3. Last week it glitched and from week 17-18 I switched from a pomegranate to an avocado and went from like 5 inches to over 8 inches. My other kiddos ask every week what size the baby is and I have to keep telling them it’s not working 😔 please fix it!
42. [R102] Pregnancy + | Tracker App 1/5 · US Not Free: I downloaded the app based on it saying it’s free. It only gives option off free for 3 days and then you pay a subscription fee.
43. [R113] Nurture Pregnancy Week by Week 1/5 · US Partner connection won’t work: My partner tried to add me. It will not sync, and will only allow me to create an account as if I am the one who is pregnant
