Description
Feedr.
Made for parents who want to keep things simple.
# What is Feedr?
A simple app to keep track when you last fed your baby and which breast was used.
# Why was this made?
When our daughter was born, it was hard to keep track if she might already be hungry again when crying. Remembering when you last fed a baby is quite the challenge without sleep. Additionally, my wife forgot which breast she used last quite often. There is no lack of apps that try to help young parents. Unfortunately most, if not all of them, try to be the ultimate baby app. This leads to cluttered apps full of features we did not need. In fact, the sheer amount of tracking and statistics offered by said apps felt wrong to us (feeding, diapers, sleep, teeth,...). We wanted to keep things simple and keep our screen time at a minimum with our daughter around.
What we needed:
* It should be possible to check how long ago the baby was last fed with a glance
* Tracking a feeding should be a one tap action
Our solution:
* Lock Screen Widgets and Apple Watch Complications for the quick glance
* Fast access to the app via Widget/Complication
* One tap to track the last feeding
# What if I don't have an Apple Watch?
This app is of course also very convenient without an Apple Watch. Use the Feedr Lock Screen Widget or place a Widget on your Home Screen to quickly check when you last fed your baby.

Ratings and Reviews
The PERFECT Simple App
This app does one thing and it does it perfectly! I looked everywhere on the App Store for a widget and Apple Watch-friendly breastfeeding tracker. It’s the only one like it right now on the market!
Features I love:
The Lock Screen widget- I just turn my phone on and I can see how long ago baby ate. One tap gets me to the app to track the start of the next feed
The dark background- PERFECT for nighttime. It drives me nuts that so many tracking apps have a BRIGHT white screen!
One Thing I Wish For: A way to time the feeds. Right now I start in Feedr, then hop over to a timing app to see how long baby fed for. I wish there was a timing function, BUT that changes nothing in my review or rating. This app rocks and is obviously 3am-newborn-centered 😅
Developer Response ,
Thank you so much for the kind words! The mostly black design was one of the reasons I created Feedr 😄 My wife and I were also thinking about adding a timer, but decided to keep it simple for the first version. I think I just might look into adding that feature now though.
Great app for breastfeeding mamas!
I love this app & it’s simplicity!
My only reason for not giving 5 stars is I wish the app offered a section for notes & optional duration timer for each feed session.
I was specifically looking for something that had a widget and Apple Watch capability for easy feed entires both on the go and during those tired night feeds and this fit that bill. Overall a great app but could use some simple additions to allow for tracking all details of feed!
Developer Response ,
Hi 🙋♂️ Thank you so much for the positive feedback! The timer was really missing, I agree. With the latest version (1.2) I fixed that and added a timer. Feel free to try it out and send me an email if you have more feedback 📫
Simple but Useful
This app is very simple but has all you need once you get past the newborn phase- last side and time of last feed. I also really love that you can use it on the Apple Watch. I can still track the feed without having my phone on me at all times.
