Instead of relying on the clunkier Apple shortcuts app which is multi-step - interface improvements would be nice - hope this isn't asking too much - check the Huckleberry app for an example of a beautiful interface with huge colourful buttons that allow you to log formula/expressed in one tap instead of two - ditto to log medications without having to select the medication via dropdown menu, or at least default it to the most commonly used, or last used medication. It is a bummer because this is a great app.Ĭomprehensive app with great export options - love the fact that I can save everything as a PDF that my child can see when she's grown up! Some suggestions for improvement that would really makea difference: - back buttons at the bottom, rather than top, for easier one-handed navigation - Apple watch complications such as a button to start/stop the sleep timer, log feed etc. Which completely negates the need to pay for Pro. The problem is that the watch app does not sync to my phone well and always says there is an error and I need to do it on my phone. I thought it would be great to quickly enter the information on my wrist because I lose my phone a lot while breastfeeding. Now that I have three children the information for the first two is till in the app so I can go back and compare how they were sleeping or eating at that age!All of that is with the free version of the app!!!The only reason I got the Pro version was to sync with the Apple Watch. If you are nursing or pumping it is a life saver for lack of sleep fog to keep you on track with your baby!For the hospital and first couple of weeks it was great because when it lets you know how long since I fed and remind me what side I fed on last and how long on each side (super helpful in the middle of the night)When I went back to work, can track what side I am pumping on and with the sync feature I could see how much my baby was eating, sleeping or pooing with the nanny, because it automatically updated my app and sent me a notification when she entered anything!The controls are really easy to use and their help team are great and get back to you quickly. It would be great to see that functionality arrive on the wearable itself, but it’s fast and easy to do on iPhone so it doesn’t feel like much of a limitation.Īfter trying out Complication Lab, it feels like a seamless way to get the health data you want on your Apple Watch and definitely worth trying out.Ĭomplication Lab offers a free 7-day trial and then runs $0.99/month, $4.99/year, or $29.99 for lifetime access.I LOVE this app. Wrap-upįor now, you need to create and edit all the complications on your iPhone before using them on Apple Watch.
