An editorial reading of the saved reviews

An app for dad partners that couples read together every day, valued for warm messages, humor, 3D imagery and a home-screen widget with the pregnancy percentage. Its main breakage is that it doesn't sync with the mom's app despite promising to, and shows a wrong week and baby size that wildly disagrees with the wife's version. Also, much used to be free and now after 18 weeks almost everything sits behind a roughly 30-dollar subscription many find steep for the content.

What users experience

3 excerpts from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

I paid for the full version of the app 29.99 for a year. We’re 10 weeks 3 days pregnant today and the app says 10 weeks 2 days and the 3D feature currently says 12 weeks. I just wish it would accurately keep up to date with my actual pregnancy.

This app accompanied us through the whole pregnancy. My wife and I read our messages to each other every day. We enjoyed the humor, and the warmth put into the app. The 3d imagery was also very cool. I used the widget and kept the percentage of the pregnancy on my Home Screen at all times.

We had a miscarriage and the company was kind enough to refund and then even give another membership when we were blessed to conceive again. We use it for our two year old son, and now also our 8 week old baby.
