Free and paid baby trackers, by price

Free baby tracker apps, and what each price gets you.

Competitor facts checked October 15, 2026; Huckleberry's prices re-checked October 25, 2026. Prices are US App Store prices. Written by Dobbin's developer.

The short version

  • $0: Baby Daybook, Baby Tracker, Glow Baby, Huckleberry, ParentLove. Sharing, the Watch app or removing ads often cost extra.
  • One payment, $4.99 to $39.99: Dobbin, Baby Tracker, ParentLove. Nothing to renew.
  • Lifetime plan, $79.99 to $99.99: Baby Daybook, Glow Baby, Nara. One bigger payment for the full paid tier.
  • Subscription: Baby Connect, Baby Daybook, Baby Tracker, Glow Baby, Huckleberry, Napper, Nara, Sprout. Nap predictions and sleep plans; renews every month or year.

Dobbin isn't free: 14‑day free trial, then $29.99 once for the whole household. Read-only after the trial; history stays viewable and exportable.

Free: logging that never asks you to pay

Logging stays free. A second caregiver, the Apple Watch app or an ad-free screen often costs extra.

✓ yes · ◐ partly · ✗ no · ? not documented. ✓ is always the good answer: on rows like “No ads”, ✓ means none. – means it doesn't apply, for example Watch features in an app with no Watch app.

The line under each app's name says what you pay for. In apps with free logging, a cell says Paid when it needs a paid plan or purchase. Where logging itself needs a plan, the column says so once instead of Paid in every cell.

Dobbin's column comes from the app itself: its logging needs the one-time $29.99 purchase after the 14‑day free trial, which covers every caregiver and feature, and exports keep working without it. “Not documented” means the maker's public material doesn't say, not that the feature is missing. Where each fact comes from ↓

Suits you if

  • One parent logging on a phone, without a Watch app or nap predictions.
  • Two parents happy to share one login: that's how Huckleberry's free sharing works.
  • Anyone who doesn't mind ads in exchange for paying nothing.

What you don't get

  • Sharing isn't always free: Baby Daybook and Glow Baby charge to add a second caregiver.
  • The Apple Watch app often isn't either: Huckleberry's needs Plus, and Baby Tracker – Newborn Log's needs the full version or the separate Pro app.
  • Huckleberry's Live Activities and widgets need Plus. Baby Daybook's are free.
  • Nap predictions are paid wherever they're documented, apart from Baby Daybook's next-nap prediction.

One payment: $4.99 to $39.99, nothing to renew

Pay once and keep logging. What one payment covers differs: a whole household, one app per caregiver, or upgrades you pick.

Suits you if

  • Families who'd rather not renew anything.
  • Two or more caregivers with an Apple Watch: Dobbin's one purchase covers the household. Baby Tracker Pro costs less, $9.98 if each caregiver buys it.
  • Breastfeeding families without a Watch: ParentLove's free version already shares, and ProFamily is $39.99 once.

What you don't get

  • Nap predictions: Dobbin has none, Baby Tracker – Newborn Log's need its Plus subscription, and ParentLove doesn't document any.
  • Dobbin: free logging after its trial, reminders and caregiver permissions.
  • ParentLove: an Apple Watch app.

Lifetime plans: $79.99 to $99.99 once

One larger payment for an app's full paid tier. Nara's and Baby Daybook's cover the family; Glow Baby's partner sharing needs its Family Plan.

Suits you if

  • You want pregnancy and postpartum tracking in the same app: Nara's $99.99 lifetime plan covers both.
  • Someone wears a Wear OS watch: Baby Daybook's Wear OS app is free, and lifetime Premium adds family sync and the full-day sleep schedule.
  • You've already bought one and you're happy with it.

What you don't get

  • Glow Baby: a second caregiver needs the Family Plan, about $90 a year.

Suits you if

  • Sleep is the hard part: Huckleberry Plus ($68.99 a year) adds SweetSpot nap predictions, and Premium ($119.99 a year) adds sleep plans.
  • You want a nap schedule built around your baby: Napper sells a personal schedule and a sleep course.
  • A nanny or daycare logs from a computer: Baby Connect logs in a web browser.

What you don't get

  • Year two costs as much as year one.
  • Some charge for the basics: Sprout and Baby Connect need a subscription to keep logging, and Glow Baby's partner sharing needs the Family Plan.

Where Dobbin fits, and when another app costs less or does more

One purchase covers the household.

  • Price: 14‑day free trial, then $29.99 once for the whole household.
  • Includes: Every caregiver, every child and the Apple Watch app. iPhone and Android, with no ads.
  • Skip it if you need: free logging after the 14‑day trial, nap predictions, reminders, caregiver permissions or a Wear OS app.

Pick something else if

  • Only one of you logs, on a phone: a free tier such as Huckleberry's or Baby Daybook's costs nothing.
  • Sleep is the struggle: Huckleberry Plus and Premium predict naps and plan sleep. Dobbin does neither.
  • You want to spend less on a Watch and two caregivers: Baby Tracker Pro is $4.99 once, or $9.98 if each caregiver buys it.
  • Two of you share and nobody wears a Watch: ParentLove's free version includes sharing, with ads.

Dobbin fits if

  • Two or more people log, on iPhone or Android, and you'd rather pay once than subscribe.
  • Someone logs from an Apple Watch, often with the phone in another room.
  • You want a nap or breastfeed your partner starts on your Lock Screen without opening the app.
