Contraction Timer & Tracker

doubtful rating

People praise the simplicity, Apple Watch integration and that it helps stay calm during labor so a partner does not have to count minutes. It breaks when after 6 to 7 contractions the timer demands payment right in the middle of labor, and an update wiped some users saved contraction history they were keeping as a memory. Repeated rate the app prompts mid contraction also annoy.

About the rating

Notable gap: 4.63 store versus 3.73 textAvg and 54 percent five stars. The text is specific (6 to 7 contraction limit before paying, Apple Watch, history lost after an update), but the upward skew of the average is questionable.
