1. Cubtale Baby Tracker: (5/5)
Cubtale baby tracker is our absolute favorite!
Cubtale has a super well-designed free app as well as award winning smart buttons. You can use the app alone, or decide to couple with the Cubs for better tracking.
The app interface is just perfect. You have absolutely everything you need from a baby tracker app. You can log memories, milestones, vaccines and photos along with routine care. You can also see how your baby grows in percentiles based on World Health Organization data. With no unwanted ads, we found Cubtale to be the app with the best features.

Cubtale also works with the Cubs, which are smart devices that can be placed where care takes place to make logging even simpler. The Cubs sync to the app over Wi-Fi, with a simple button press you can log an event and see how long ago your last diaper change, medicine or bottle was.
2. Nara Baby Tracker (4.3/5)
Following Cubtale, Nara has the second best app in the app store.
We loved their ability to schedule different sleep windows. So if you are looking for a clean interface with the ability to log different events Nara has become a favorite.

App and the smart watch is FREE
3. Glow Baby Tracker (3.1/5)

OS: Apple & Android. Ipad & Apple Watch

4. Huckleberry Baby Tracker (3.0/5)
Given how many parents have challenges with sleep training, Huckleberry’s offer is amazing. Huckleberry is one of the few apps that actually help parents with sleep plans using the data logged.
The sleep plans are a bit expensive, but seems like a lot of users love it.
OS: Apple & Android. Also includes smart watches.
Price: $9.99/month for the advanced sleep scheduler. Rest is free.
5. Nighp Baby Tracker (2.8/5)
This is the app that had the most number of reviews. It looks like a relatively older app. The interface is not friendly and there are constant ads popping up.
If you are looking for a free local solution, Nighp does the work. Though we have to say that the data doesn’t get backed up with this one.
OS: Apple & Android. Also includes smart watches.
Price: App and the smart watch is FREE

Here are some of our favorite comments from baby tracker apps:
“When we had our first baby Liam, we had challenges keeping track of her care. My care performance was suffering until I came across mobile baby tracker apps. These apps were incredibly helpful. I could keep track of breastfeeding, sleep sessions, see the data and build routines using them. But I was also concerned about RF radiation impacts on babies as I had come across many articles. It was a struggle to find a balance between using my phone to keep tracak of care while avoiding cell phone radiation. Feeding the baby 8x/day, with an avg. session taking 30 mins, I had to keep my phone next to the baby’s undeveloped skull in order to log these sessions. Soon, I stopped tracking because I didn’t want to take the risk.”
“My husband and I were working full-time and we had my mother at home taking care of the baby. Coordinating care among 3 adults was a big challenge. We called grandma multiple times a day asking her the same questions. We would miss giving the baby vitamins assuming someone else did it. We weren’t able to provide accurate care data to our pediatrician. Cameras were not helpful because it required us to search for a specific event taking too much time. We wanted real-time updates, especially when things were out of order, which meant grandma to carry her phone at all times.”
