Best Baby Tracker Apps of 2026

Every baby tracker does the basics: feeds, naps, diaper changes, and a timer you can tap at 3 a.m. with one thumb. So the best baby tracker app is the one that's best at the thing you need most. For some parents that's naps. For others it's a grandma, a nanny and a daycare all writing in the same log.

We make one of the nine apps here, Cutiko, so we left our own taste out of it. We read what other parents say about each one and let them do the talking.

• If you want to track your own recovery too: Nara Baby

Huckleberry: Best for Sleep

Ask a room of new parents which tracker they use, and someone will say Huckleberry. It came up in about a third of the parent discussions we read online, more than any other app. Most of the love goes to SweetSpot, which predicts your baby's next nap and bedtime from 2 months on. One mom called it "magical and a little spooky" how well it guesses her son's naps.

A predicted nap is a guess from your baby's own pattern. Plan around it, and let your baby have the last word.

It isn't for everyone. About one in five replies warned against it or said they'd stopped, and a few parents said the nap times made them anxious. SweetSpot is part of the paid Plus plan, but the log, and sharing it with your partner, are free. If sleep is the battle and a time to aim for calms you down, start here.

Nara Baby: Tracking You Too

Nara is the tracker that remembers you're recovering too. Your pregnancy and postpartum logs sit right next to the baby's feeds and naps. Parents loved how simple it is: "the most simple and most intuitive app," one wrote. It also runs on more devices than most, Mac included.

Then this fall Nara became a paid app, and the mood changed fast. One parent had logged every feed for 11 months and wrote that they couldn't afford the subscription. Before the change, about four in five parents' comments recommended Nara. Since then, about one in four do. If the price works for you, it's still the app those parents loved.

Baby Tracker: Best Simple Log

Parents sum up Baby Tracker by Nighp in three words: "Clean, fast, simple." It logs feeds, pumping with a milk inventory, sleep, diaper changes, medicine and vaccines, and its growth charts adjust for babies born early. One reviewer on their fourth baby keeps coming back to it.

About 227,000 people have rated it in the App Store, more than any other tracker here. Nearly four in five parents' comments that mention it recommend it.

If you want everything written down and nothing more, this is the one.

The catch is the ads. They're the top complaint, and one parent asked for ads without sound, so that opening the app to log a nap doesn't wake the baby. You can pay once to remove them.

Baby Daybook: Best on a Smartwatch

With a baby on your arm, your phone is always just out of reach. Baby Daybook runs on Apple Watch and Wear OS, and its phone widgets work as shortcuts, so a feed takes one tap. One mom with ADHD said the reminders on her watch are what keep her logging at all.

Almost every parent who mentions it online recommends it, often for the charts, which include ones for babies born early. One thing to know: sharing the log with your partner needs Premium.

Napper: Best for Sleep Schedules

Napper does one thing: sleep. It gives you a nap schedule for your baby's age, and on the paid plan it predicts naps from your baby's own log. "Down to the minute most of the time," one parent wrote. Among parents who gave it four or five stars, four in ten wrote about sleep timing, the highest share of any app here.

Some parents move over from Huckleberry because Napper feels lighter. The sleep log and the age schedule are free. Logging feeds and diaper changes, sleep sounds and a sleep course are part of the paid plan.

ParentLove: Best for Many Caregivers

Some babies have a whole team. ParentLove's reviews are full of grandmas, nannies and daycare providers, all logging the same baby. One grandmother looks after the kids while mom and dad work, and says it "makes it so much easier to keep track of everything." You can invite as many caregivers as you like and choose what each one sees, child by child.

It was designed by a lactation consultant, and it's rated 4.9 stars in both stores. There's no subscription: one payment adds growth charts, a PDF for the doctor and export. It doesn't predict naps.

Glow Baby: Best for Comparing Babies

Every parent wonders now and then whether their baby is eating or sleeping enough. Glow Baby shows how your baby's numbers compare with other babies in the app, "his age and weight," as one mom put it. That comparison is part of its paid plan. Babies grow at their own pace, so if a number worries you, ask your pediatrician.

Glow Baby comes from the company behind the Glow fertility and pregnancy apps, so it suits you if you already use those. It logs 14 kinds of entries and runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Android. The iPhone app hasn't been updated in a year, so check that before you commit.

Baby Connect: Best on a Computer

Baby Connect works in a browser, so a nanny or daycare can log from a computer while you follow along on your phone. Nannies turn up again and again in its reviews. One parent liked that it "keeps entries synced during the day." It also works with Alexa and Siri.

It's been around since 2009. Among parents who gave it four or five stars, sharing comes up more than for any other app here. After a 7-day trial you need a yearly plan to keep adding entries.

Cutiko: Tracker and Memory Book

Most parents end up with two apps: one for feeds and, if they're lucky, one for photos. The baby book stays half filled in a drawer. Cutiko keeps both on one timeline, so the day with three night wake-ups is also the day of the first real laugh. You choose who sees what: the grandparents might get the photos, and the nanny the care log.

Every feature is free, with no ads. If you're leaving another app, you can bring your log over from Nara Baby or from Huckleberry.

Cutiko has just launched, so it has no ratings yet. That's why it isn't in the numbers above.

Cutiko works in any browser and on Android, and the iPhone app is on its way to the App Store.

You May Not Need an App

Plenty of parents skip the app altogether. A note on the phone, a spreadsheet, a whiteboard on the fridge or plain paper came up in about one in six parent discussions we read. Only Huckleberry and Nara were named more often.

Some parents tracked only for the first weeks, or until their baby was back to birth weight. And tracking can wear you down: in about one in ten posts about it, the parent said it had become a strain. If that's you, it's fine to track less, or to stop. If you're worried about feeding or weight, ask your pediatrician what's worth writing down.

Check the Privacy Label

A baby tracker ends up holding a lot about your child: when they eat, how they sleep, what medicine they take. It's worth a minute to see where that goes. In 2026, researchers checked 14 popular Android baby trackers and found that all 14 shared data with other companies. Four apps on this page were among them: Huckleberry, Baby Tracker, Baby Daybook and Glow Baby. Consumer Reports scored six trackers in 2024, and privacy was generally their weakest score.

You can check any app yourself in the App Privacy section of its App Store page. Cutiko wasn't in either test. It has no ads and doesn't sell your data.

Which One Should You Pick

Start with what keeps you up at night, and try that app for a few days. If two look right, run them side by side for a week and keep the one you reach for with a baby on your arm.

If nap predictions are the reason you're choosing, know that we couldn't find a published test of any app's, ours included. We wrote up what we found on nap prediction accuracy. Treat a predicted nap as a guess to plan around.
