At four in the morning,
logging a feed
costs one tap.

Baby Duo is a newborn routine log for the two people actually living it. No forms, no menus, no waiting for anything to load. It works with no signal, and what you log shows up for your partner as soon as there's a network.

Baby Duo's Today screen: how long since the last feed, and four buttons.

What matters is what you don't have to do

One tap and it's done: the feed, the diaper or the nap is logged. If you need to fix the time or note the millilitres, hold the button and the detail sheet opens.

Without typing

A stopwatch, or millilitres

Left breast, right breast or bottle. The breast is timed without putting the phone down; the bottle is noted in millilitres. And if you remembered late, the time can be corrected.

Without a signal

Works in a basement

Everything is saved on the phone first. Logging still costs one tap, and what you logged uploads on its own once the network is back.

Without recounting the night

You both see the same thing

There are no two histories to reconcile. It doesn't matter who logged it: the information belongs to the family and syncs on its own.

While the baby sleeps

Live Activity

The sleep stretch counts itself on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, so nobody has to watch the clock.

The best part is not having to open it

With a newborn you have one hand busy and the other holding a bottle. Almost everything Baby Duo does can be done without even unlocking the phone.

Baby Duo's medium widget on the Home Screen: 'Last feed' with the elapsed time, the previous feed below it, and Feed, Diaper and Sleep buttons on the right.
The medium widget on the Home Screen. The three buttons log right there: they don't open the app, they don't even wake it. Tap one and the widget lights up for a moment to confirm — it takes a beat because iOS decides when to redraw it, not the app.

On the Lock Screen, a ring fills toward the next expected feed. You see it when you pick the phone up, without touching anything.

And on the Apple Watch, with complications on the face. It is free, and it needs no account of its own: it reads from the paired iPhone.

The week, with bars that don't lie

Feeds per day, average interval, hours of sleep and diaper counts. Sleep stretches that cross midnight are split across both days — which is the difference between a pretty chart and one you can show a pediatrician.

Everything logged, day by day

Breast or bottle feeds with a stopwatch or millilitres, diapers, sleep, bath, medication and weight. Swipe a row to fix it or delete it.

The things you ask at three in the morning

Eight short guides on the first weeks: how much milk by age, what diapers look like week by week, the milestones of year one, what to pack in the bag, and three on US hospital checks and checkups, labelled as such.

Every figure says where it comes from — AAP, CDC, NHS, WHO — and every guide ends with its sources and with what has to be said: they do not replace your pediatrician. The warning signs guide, what never to do and when to call, is free and sits behind no paywall.

Baby Duo Plus

$4.99one-time

No subscription, no renewals. A newborn app gets used for 18 or 24 months, and charging a yearly fee for that looks a lot like charging twice.

  • Multiple babies — each with their own history and their own metrics. The first one is free.
  • Sleep window — when the next nap is due, learned from your baby's own rhythm, with the day's plan.
  • Pumping log — how much and when, with a reminder every 2, 3 or 4 hours.
  • Next feed reminders — based on your baby's real interval, not a fixed time.
  • Seven guides — milk by age, diapers, milestones, the bag and three on US hospital practice, with the public source behind every figure.
  • Export the history — a spreadsheet to take to the pediatrician or keep.

Everything else, including logging from the widget and the warning signs guide, is free.

Your baby's data is not the product

Baby Duo has no ads and no advertising tracking, and nothing you log ever leaves your family: your entries live on our own server in Germany and only people in your family can see them. The app does send reports when it crashes, and which screens get opened, which is what lets us fix it; it tells you before it starts and you can turn it off in Settings.
