18 Positive User Reviews for Count the Kicks!

Really helpful

I really like having this app. You can track things for yourself and OB and even share the daily results with your spouse so they can see! I really liked the reminders. Mine haven’t worked for weeks now. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Logging out and in. Restarting my phone. Nothing helps. I have 2 reminders and none of them have worked in weeks so I set an alarm on my phone. Please fix the reminders! Otherwise, love the app and everything it involves. I plan to use it for my contract

Pregnancy Brain?

Might be pregnancy brain but I was asked to create a pregnancy profile 2x so had data under two different profiles. Deleted one and lost that data so I’m a little frustrated but will review further once I used this app longer. Good ol’ fashioned pen and paper might just have to suffice.

Needs to stay on

Easy to use app but frustrating when screen keeps turning off. Should add a setting that keeps screen on when counting. Just like recipe webpages having “cook mode”, this app should have “count mode”.

Great App

Love this app. Very helpful on keeping track of kicks and contractions. Even has resources if you need help.

Reassurance

Great app. Easy to use and very reassuring to see consistency and strength. Thank you for creating this app!

Peace of mind

Really like this app and the ease of using it. Gives peace of mind when you need it.

Good when it works

This app is still having problems with closing out of a session when the phone screen blacks out. They either need to make it so the screen stays on during an active session or like a timer that keeps ticking even when the screen blacks out. If this issue would be resolved I would like this app.

Update issue??

After the most recent update, the app continues to log me out and/or keeps saying I’ve missed days when I haven’t. Before this update, I absolutely loved the app. So hopefully that can be fixed.

Why Can’t I Edit?

I like this app but I don’t understand the discrepancy with dates and why I can’t edit previous entries. My first entry looks like it was entered on 4/5 when yesterday was in fact 5/4 and I never had a chance to input date. Date and time should be automatic right? Then when I go in to add notes or something it won’t allow me to change anything that’s been submitted.

One annoying feature

You cannot close out the app or go to another app or else it will end the countdown. Annoying feature when you’re supposed to just sit and be still, but can’t scroll on your phone and go back to the app when you feel a kick.

Life Saving Technology

Every expectant parent should take the time to use this app. It has some amazing resources and provides life-saving technology!

Very useful

I started using this app at 24w pregnant with my first pregnancy and it’s a convenient way to keep track of my baby’s kicks!

6 Negative User Reviews for Count the Kicks!

Don’t like that you can’t end session before 10 kicks

Sometimes I get 8 or 9 which is fine. My doctor recommends 6 in an hour. I have so many unfinished sessions that I can’t save anywhere. Should be able to end whenever.

Infantile design, acceptable function

Ridiculously childish UX, borderline insulting. Loses sessions. You can’t get rid of the annoying “ask Ana” decal that is huge and always in the way. Why is there a “personified” help function anyway? Again, this is infantilizing. The only reason I’m using this stupid interface is bc it works on Apple Watch. We will see how well. Hopefully I can find something less annoying to use and look at

Hate this app

I really hate this app. I hate the fact that the notifications are unreliable. I hate that the timer doesn’t start until you log a movement. I hate the way it presents your session data in a way that is not helpful and doesn’t let you understand the patterns of your baby’s movements. Great organization but terrible, terrible app.

Waste of my time

This app would be great if I could actually use it. I recorded my data and kicks from 27 weeks to 32. Then it logged me out and won’t let me back in. Won’t send me my password or give me any way to re login despite trying to through all available avenues, I’ve been trying for 2 days. All I can do is make a new account. So what was the point of collecting all that data for weeks? Also when I previously would try to refer to past data it would freeze and glitch. What a waste of my time, I’m so f

Doesn’t save sessions

I’ve just finished my fourth session and it literally wiped the memory of my precious three since I updated the app. Very frustrating and defeats the purpose.

Deletes kicks

I had about 8 kicks logged in 50 minutes. It deleted about 5 of them when I left the app for a few minutes. I had a scare recently and this app was going well the first week and now it is glitching. I want to be able to properly document the kicks without them being deleted
