  1. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    6 free then u pay. You only get to track 6 contractions before it makes you pay weekly. Sad.

  2. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Way too much money!!. 2.99 a week or $30 for the year??? So can I cancel my subscription if I do the 2.99 a week when I no longer need it or does it continue to bill me for the whole year?? I don’t see why you are trying to take advantage of moms at their most vulnerable time. Honestly disgusting and disappointing. “For moms”? You mean for money.

  3. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Trying to make me pay mid contraction!. Don’t get it unless you want to spend the money. I was looking for a free app and this one came up. But during my labor it literally didn’t let me record my contractions and instead forced me to purchase a subscription with them. It’s getting out of hand. This is not the time. If you must charge do so at the time of downloading

  4. ★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Update wiped my history. I’m so upset! I wanted to see the history of my contractions from labor with my 2nd baby. The new update completely wiped my data. I was saving it to go back to as a memory so I could write everything down. All I have is one screenshot from when I decided to go into the hospital. 🥺

  5. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Seriously…. I was actively using this to time contractions and then I hit start timer for contraction number 7 or 8 and the app prompted me to pay money. Seriously. Don’t let me use the timing feature at all if you then tell me to pay money after I’ve been relying on it to time contractions. If I’m trying to time contractions, I’m not really looking to read about your dumb subscription service right now. Absolutely ridiculous.

  6. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No compatible with Apple Watch. Not compatible with Apple watch even though it shows in the pictures like you can use your watch. Downloaded app on phone and purchased to use, my Apple Watch is saying “full features in iPhone app”. I was fully expecting to be able to use my watch, very disappointed

  7. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Hidden Behind a Paywall. You have to pay after only counting your contractions 6 times. $2.89 USD a week is crazy for an app you’re only going to be using for a short while. Not worth it. There are other FREE apps that offer the same or better service.

  8. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Have to buy a subscription. I think it’s crazy to me that you have to buy a subscription for everything now a days! Like I’m in pain going through contractions and you want to ask me to sign up for a subscription! Your joking! Trash!!!!!

  9. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Subscription. Free for 6 events. Pay after. Completely useless app when you need it.

  10. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Subscription based. I was only able to track one season. After that it wants you toto subscribe to a paid version

  11. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Money grubbers. I was trying to quickly time my contractions and when going to the app to click it asked me for money and I missed it. I will be deleting. Just to make it known you HAVE to make a purchase in this app.

  12. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Unbelievably disappointing.. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONTRACTION and this app wouldn’t allow me to track it because it wanted me to pay a subscription fee! I paid the $3 for a week just so I could continue tracking before giving birth! I thought this app was supposed to be free, but NOPE! Only allowing up to a certain number of times to track before requiring payment is an absolutely disgusting design. Shame on you!

  13. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    No Features are Free. The ability to time contractions without subscription stops after 5 contractions. Not ideal when you’re in labor.

  14. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Seriously stay away.. The fact that you have to pay for the full version after SIX contractions and then it doesn’t even work? Unbelievable. Way to take advantage of people while they should be focusing on such an important time.

  15. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Have to pay to time contractions. I was in the middle of trying to time a contraction when I was prompted to pay. I had already timed 6 contractions before that so I didn’t know that I would have to pay. It’s wrong to take advantage of pregnant women while they are in the middle of labor! They probably expect you to just pay so that you can keep timing your contractions.

  16. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Garbage. Find another app! This app conveniently does not tell you that you need to pay for service until after you’ve tracked 6 contractions. We were in the middle of tracking and our data was skewed by the service interruption. At that point it’s riddled with obnoxious upsell pop-ups. It’s a very shady tactic they’re using and we would advise anyone to use an alternative rather than giving them your money.

  17. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Paid timer. I just wanted to download a quick timer to help track my contractions to send to my midwife and this junk app starts telling me I have to pay mid labor in order to do so. Downloaded another app that didn’t bother me for money during a rather tedious time in my life. Thanks for nothing!!

  18. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Not free. Was trying to use this during my wife’s last pregnancy. After about 6 contractions you get a popup requiring you to pay to continue using the simple co traction tracker. 0/10 would not recommend

  19. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Scam. App is good. Well built and helped a lot. But they wait until you’re halfway through your labor and contractions to charge you and lock up the app until you pay. Then they set it up as a reoccurring weekly bill so after you have your baby and things calm down you get hit with another random bill if you forget to cancel. Very scamy way to do business.

  20. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Deceptive app takes advantage when you are most vulnerable. While the app worked for the most part with a few bugs that one could live with, the reason for the low rating is the deceptive way they try to monetize it. While in the middle of tracking contractions, you are suddenly presented with a paywall you cannot get past. Remember, this is when you are at your most vulnerable, trying to understand if you are going into pre-term labor.

  21. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Very much not free. It seemed like this app was free until we were in the middle of early labor and tracking contractions when suddenly we had to pay to keep using it. Felt kind of like a dirty trick like it would just wait until you are in the midst of a lot of stress and then just kind of pop up like oh you need to pay or start over somewhere else.

  22. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Not free at all. Free version lets you count like 10 contractions then it cuts off and makes you pay so quite frustrating when you’re in labor

  23. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    PREDATORY - Requires subscription after first contraction. I timed my first contraction, then when my second one started, the app would not let me do so unless I chose a weekly or annual subscription plan. Nowhere did it previously disclose that it only works if you pay a subscription, and now that I am possibly in labor, it springs it on me?? Absolutely not. This is one of the most sinister, predatory, and cynical business practices I have ever seen.

  24. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Doesn’t mention in app purchases on the page. The app stopped contraction timer out of nowhere and was pushing paid version

  25. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Forces you to pay in the middle of contractions. Absolutely not

  26. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Asks you to download another app every 3 minutes. It’s annoying.. It’s literally the most obnoxious thing. I don’t want to download your app. I want to time my contractions. Don’t use this app, use a timer app or the ‘what to expect’ app for a better, ad free, minimal pay wall app!!!

  27. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Deceiving. I downloaded this and started to have contractions as soon as I started to track they stopped letting me track in order to get a payment. I had to delete and start over with another app that’s truly free. This is misleading and disrespectful

  28. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Costs $$. Can’t use it without paying for all the bells and whistles.

  29. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Have to pay to use. Seems silly to pay a subscription for a contraction tracker that you’ll use for a very limited window of time. We’re hustling going to go with old school paper and pencil I guess.

  30. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No longer free to use. I’ve been using this app for 2 weeks. I’m now past my due date and monitoring contractions closely. In the middle of my contractions I was told to update the app so I did. Now I cannot use this unless I pay. Not worth it anymore.
