5/5Never fails…always solid advice
I have never written a review. I refer to this app for a variety of reasons. I can’t even begin to say how many times this app has both saved me a trip to the doctor or prompted a needed visit. The advice it gives has always been consistent with the advice my doctor gives. As a parent, these are not always the things you know and putting a call into one’s own mother isn’t always possible. I have recommended this app a thousand times over and will continue to do so.

5/5Every parent should have this app
This is my first ever review after a bazillion years of using Apple apps. My kids are now 12, 10, and 6, and I still find this app to be completely indispensable. I tell all the new moms and dads in my life to download it immediately. It has given us practical advice that helps us determine the appropriate care needs for our children and has saved me from over-reacting AND under-reacting hundreds of times. If you have kids, you need this app!

5/5Worth its weight in gold
I’ve never written an app review but this one deserves it. This was recommended to us years ago by an ER doc treating our daughter. We’ve turned to it time and again. The recommendations it had for our 12 week old son matched what the regional children’s hospital also recommended. It’s a valuable tool and great peace of mind. Can’t recommend enough to other parents.

5/5I don’t write reviews but....
This is a very valuable app. I paid for years ago when my daughter was little ( she is almost 7) and now it is very helpful for our second child who is 6 months old.

1/5Charged me $2 without my consent!
I downloaded this app from my doctor’s website. NEVER in the app or nor I read anywhere in the app that I will be charged when I was browsing symptoms for my child. The app didn’t even help at all. That seems very scammy to me to just suddenly charge me without my consent. Most apps that I purchase from will ALWAYS ask for my consent by forcing me to double click my side button and provide my password. This wasn’t didn’t!
