easy to use, hassle-free app to time contractions. i could use it when labour started, and also before that for keeping track of Braxton-Hicks. the suggestions and explanations seem correct to me, they are easy to understand. amazing app, just what it needs to be!

This was fantastic for my first pregnancy to keep track of duration and frequency of contractions. Very simple, and well designed. Great for alerting birth partners when contractions came without having to speak. Would have been nice to have a night/dark mode. Didn't really pay attention to its recommendations so can't comment on those.

I downloaded and uses the free version during my partners contractions. Really simple and easy to use. The hardest thing about it is remembering to stop the timer after a contraction. The only thing I found annoying is that I would start timing a contraction but before the end, my phone lockscreen would kick in and I'd have to unlock my phone to stop the contraction. This got a lot harder as the contractions got worse. Might be a good feature to ensure the phone lockscreen doesn't kick in

I'm in early labor, full term pregnancy, and i have started the contraction counting twice because there's an error with the App, the the contractions are being counted with a duration on over 1.26 minutes, when in fact both times have been a bit less than 40 seconds (for at least the first 4 contractions)... this double guessing and double tracking is not helping to have a peaceful labor.

The free version never alerted me to go to the hospital. I've used the paid version of this app with my first 2 children and it was beyond perfect. However, the free version kept populating a msg about every 4 contractions that require your attention. And I'll just say I hated it.

It was easy to use, but the feature telling you when to go to the hospital was too intrusive. Having it take over your screen every four contractions when you are in pain was too annoying. I wish it just had a bubble appearing above the button or something, so you didn't have to navigate back to the contraction button.

Not Accurate / Unable to Email History. I would have delivered the baby at home having had followed the app's recommendation as to when to head to the hospital. It is difficult knowing when to go to the hospital, which is why I found this app appealing for my second pregnancy. However, it could be dangerous for some holding off going to the hospital because this app or similar ones indicate that it's too soon to go. Be cautious with these apps.

Used this for my first labor. It was so easy to use, and when contractions start you want something super easy and intuitive! I was able to time each contraction, and also see how long between each contraction. It was helpful to get the message saying "go to the hospital" because as a first-time parent, you really don't know!! I arrived at the hospital in time, already very dilated, and gave birth 4 hours later.

I was tracking my contractions the hard way, using a timer for duration and a different timer for time in between contractions. This app records both and is super easy to use, requiring minimal effort!! Perfect for someone going into labor, lol. Once my contractions came in close together, the app advised me to go to the hospital.

This app did just what I needed it to: push the button when the contraction starts, push it again when the contraction ends. The app tracks the length of each contraction and the interval between contractions. You can then give this info to the hospital. Gives "contractions per hour" count even when less than an hour has passed; I'm not sure how accurate the averaging out to an hour is. However, the app was right about telling me to get the to hospital, which is really the point :).

A very simple app to use however I would like there to be a way to show a break in timing contractions (instead of it calculating a 20 min timeframe where I stopped timing contractions) because then I either have to erase all prior data on the app and write it down or have misinformation because it's included a 20 min time gap in the info. I thought paying for the app would give this feature but there are no additional features when paying for the app either.

An update or two can make this more "user friendly" as it is a bit confusing to try to restart the contractions to start tracking them again when you're in the middle of having long painful contractions! It did help me a lot though, gave birth to my beautiful baby at home but had 3 excruciating days of prodromal labor first. This timer helped me confirm my instincts when I was finally in active labor (although the midwife did not believe me and she almost missed the birth!). Thanks guys.

This was such a useful app while trying to keep track of my contractions. It's very simple and straight forward. I do agree that I wish there was a way to note a lapse in ability to time contractions so that it doesn't just look like there weren't contractions for the 30 minutes I wasn't able to time them. Overall, wonderful app. I appreciate it.

Was a simple, streamlined interface that gave me the exact info I needed at my fingertips while laboring. I bought the ad free version after the fact just to support this awesome resource that helped me so much. Thanks for providing such an easy to use and thoughtfully designed product. My favorite feature was the ability to easily rate the intensity of contractions after each one.

I truly like the features of this app. I haven't gone into labor yet, but I've practiced with it during Braxton hicks contractions. However, it would easily get 5 stars if it had compatibility with my galaxy watch. Being able to time contractions without needing to carry around my phone would be a huge win to me. I know many, many women are frustrated with the fact that Apple has at least 1 contraction app that is compatible with the Apple watch, but Android has nothing.

The button is large and able to see right away while in active labor and in a panic the numbers are easy to locate and read and it actually tells you when you should go to the hospital instead of everything you've prepared for going out of the window and having to Google when you should go while you're in active labor. Just more convenient all around for me. This is the 4th tracker Ive used for practice so I can make sure I have one I like when it's needed.

It was super easy to use!! Could easily edit the timing of contractions if I forgot to hit start/stop on any of them. It automatically includes the timing/frequency from the start of one contraction to the start of the next, and you can have it prompt you to rate the intensity after each one if you want to as well. Thank you for making such a useful tool to use during such an intense time!
