Confusing update

Ugh!!! The new update is very confusing to use. The icons are not easy to decipher and I find myself having to click on every single icon multiple times to find what Im looking for but usually I just give up on the app.

Not happy

One of my favorite features was the countdown that let me know how many DAYS until a developmental leap there were & how many days until the next one began. Why did you do away with this?? Ugh!

Horrible since the update

The update made this app incredibly confusing and hard to navigate. Less helpful info than there was before, I would not recommend this app. Dont waste your time on it.

Meh

Not a fan. Interface is confusing. No way of easily telling which week youre on or how many days are left in week. Dont bother.

I miss the old version!

The app used to be so great and helpful! The updated version is awful, has no real useful information other than letting you know your baby is in a leap. I miss the countdown, the "help" section, and all of the other information that is no longer available. Dont waste your buck!

Sad

The old setup of the app was so much better. The updated version of this app isnt even worth having. Its so confusing and frustrating to use. Its not even worth having. I use to love this app and now I hate it.

Please improve your app

I have nothing to add critique wise to the other reviewers. I soo miss your app. If the goal is monetization, I have a suggestions: 1. After giving me access to a free one, make me pay for sitter content. Your app was a bible for a lot of us and I would pay for your app. 2. Give me the free app but make me pay to see more content (who needs a full chapter? The beauty of your old app was sound bites) 3. Make it easy for me to buy additional content. Looks like I can buy chapters but Im digitally savvy and its taking too long to figure it out. Hope you get it together before my next kid as we are missing your old app! TIA

Ruined by the update!

I used to love this app...key phrase here is used to. Sadly, the last update made it basically useless. Previously, I could see how many days until I could expect a leap (mental preparation is key, amirite??) and when the leap began, I was able to pinpoint key signs of the leap, why they were happening, and how to help my baby get through it, as well as potential/expected new abilities he might have following the leap. Now....I can see hes in a leap, and at some point may be out of said leap. Disappointing to say the least!

Latest update brought you guys WAY up.

FINALLYYYYYYY!! I can read the chapters IN the app, AND I can do so with large text! No more trying to hold sleeping baby AND use two hands to pinch-zoom the screen!! Score. Videos! Yessss. Just way more streamlined. Thank you!

Terrible update

If I could give this zero stars, I would. This update completely ruined this app. This app used to be useful in reviewing the past leaps or future leaps. Now I have zero clue how to use this app. Im uninstalling it right now.

Cant update date

I mistakenly entered his birthday as opposed to the due date and I cant seem to find the place to edit this information. Slightly mad about this since I paid for an app that now displays the incorrect information.

Hmmm

Not sure why there are so many bad reviews! I like the app. I can see the calendar and tell when leaps are coming. It still has all the sections and descriptions for signs, skills, how you can help. Its fun to see your baby doing these things as predicted.

Upgrade made this app horrible

Absolutely used to love this app... Since the upgrade I hate it. I had even paid for the full version and now it is requiring me to pay again!! The look has completely changed and is not nearly as user friendly. Dont waste your time or money on the app.

Do not purchase!

Like other reviewers, I should not have run the update. I used to look ahead and see what leap my child would hit next and what skills I should expect her to learn. The recent update took that away. I really dont see the point of using this app anymore and wish I could dispute the charge with my credit card company or ask Apple for a refund. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS APP!

Option to review prior leaps

Is there a way to review prior leaps? I downloaded the app when my LO was 13 weeks and would like to review previous stages to familiarize myself with the referenced "prior leaps".

Loving the Leaps

Other than not having the day by day breakdown it used to have, I love this app. From the videos, the note-taking section, the breakdown of what to expect, suggestions for activities during a leap... I love it all. The descriptions have been super accurate and its been so helpful to see that what my baby is going through is normal. Whenever he starts to seem like a storm is coming, sure enough hes in the middle of clouds with lightening bolts approaching. The app tells you how to handle these rough times too. Also, unlike other apps, Im not being bombarded with annoying ads. It just gives me what I need. I tell all my new mommy friends about this app. Its been such a helpful tool and I hope it just continues to improve.

App is crashing with new update!

Once the app stops crashing, I want to see the old calendar view. Wonder weeks is amazing and spot on for my daughter (we are at 9 month mark and have hit every leap, as predicted). Fix your update bugs!!!!!! I cant live without wond r weeks. I have the book too, but I need the access at my fingertips!

Ruined a good app

I loved this app and used it from birth (12/23/15) through the latest update, which rendered it essentially worthless. I loved the way the previous features were broken out and made into bullet points. It made it easy to see and understand at a glance what a leap was all about. Now its all just a huge wall of text with any helpful pointers embedded somewhere in a long paragraph. Come on, Im an exhausted new parent whos trying to figure out why my baby is screaming at me RIGHT NOW. I dont want to have to read a book. I doubt the old format will come back, so Id just advise new parents to save their money and stick to Google.

Worthless

Total waste of money. Weekly overview is just a very vague paragraph. No features or information that you cant get for free with a google search on your babys age. Not even worth the few dollars it cost.

Great app and book!

Not really sure why people are complaining about. This app is even better after the update and more user friendly. It ties in great with the book and keeps me updated on my sons leaps.
