Very simple app, and easy to use. My only complaint is that I've had trouble setting up reminders. I turned them on for every night at the same time and I've had it for almost a week and haven't gotten any notifications. I made sure notifications are enabled for the app in my settings too but still nothing. Not a huge deal as I can set a calendar reminder, it would just be nice if that worked for me.

App is a cool idea but really clunky. Doesn't work properly offline (why on earth can't I count kicks on a plane?), disables some of your keyboard functions (swipe-typing and dictation), and abruptly stopped working this morning, telling me I needed to update when no update was available. Wish it worked the way it could, cause it's a handy and simple kick counter.

The app keeps resetting after use. It doesn't add the kick counts to my profile after the session, even though I follow all of the steps to properly complete it. It's made me remake my pregnancy profile several times after saying I don't have one, just for them all to magically show back up the next time I open the app (without any sessions). I wanted to use this for my rainbow baby, but I'm better off using a regular stopwatch and timing it myself.
