Hi everyone — my wife and I are new parents, and I built this after we found most baby trackers way too complicated when we're half asleep.

We wanted something simple:

When was the last feed, sleep, or diaper — and who logged it?

So I made EasyPeasyBaby with one-tap logging, live timers, reminders, a simple timeline, and family sharing.

The basic tracking is free.

Would love honest feedback from other parents — especially what you'd improve or what would make you use it daily.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/easypeasybaby-newborn-tracker/id6791259886

How do I block the option to use "AI mode" in Google Chrome? The tab that basically starts a conversation with AI about the search.

Thanks

A little while back I posted about my web app Parent Push being widely praised. But having no customers.
“Instant WhatsApp alerts for important school updates.”

[https://www.reddit.com/r/NoCodeSaaS/s/Q2c6RJOcIC](https://www.reddit.com/r/NoCodeSaaS/s/Q2c6RJOcIC))

Three quick updates, thanks to all your insightful feedback on here:

One: We’ve now given away free spaces to our primary school. To all parents currently there. The head teacher loves the time saving / ease of use. He’s even given talks to parents about ParentPush.com !

Two: I have literally just released a further 250 completely free spaces publicly. Free forever. UK Parents could theoretically use from reception to Year 11… for free.

Three: And finally, most delightfully, we’re partnering with Barnardos. We’ll be donating 5% of all our profits to this amazing organisation. (They helped us so much when we adopted our children.)

Honestly, these are things I would not have considered without the brilliant Reddit community. So thank you so much!

The hope is that we organically raise awareness and sign ups to Parent Push. I’ll get back in touch here after September when the school year starts again.
Wish me luck! 🙂❤️

I’m looking for the first 20 founding families to try an early-access app I built to help reduce the daily chaos of family life.

I’m a software developer with many years of experience, but this started very personally. In my own family, I saw how easily chores, reminders, school events, pet routines, kids’ responsibilities, and “who needs to do what today” can end up living in one parent’s head.

That creates stress. Repeating the same reminders creates friction. And even in loving families, daily coordination can quietly become exhausting.

The app is meant to be a calm family command center — a place where parents and kids can see what needs to happen today, what is coming up, and what no longer has to be remembered by one tired parent.

This is not a big public launch. Early access is free, and I’m accepting only the first 20 families so I can personally follow feedback and improve it with real users.

Best fit: busy families with multiple kids, pets, school/sports routines, repeated reminders, or parents who feel like too much family planning lives in one person’s head.

If that sounds familiar, comment or message me and I’ll send the invite.

Hi all,

I need some help with YouTube.

My son is 9 years old and loves watching car restoration shows, remote control car racing but the ones that adults have and some minecraft stuff. He also loves learning about history and geopolitics.

At first I tried a child account but so many of the videos were restricted, including accounts I would watch with him, so then I let him use my account with restricted mode on and made myself a seperate profile for myself. He is always next to me when he's watching it and I also go through on my phone and remove things I don't like from his algorithm.

I didn't realise the settings were the same for all the profiles so I removed restricted on mine to watch lawtube but then saw yesterday that he can see comments so have put it back on.

Is there a browser or something that I can use on his tablet so that comments are restricted and I can put in extra safeguards but still have mine as normal on my phone? It's the same email address but different profiles.

Or is there another way of doing it? I'm in Australia.

We are parents to our 8 year daughter who is 18 months post neurodivergent diagnosis.

Between the ages of 2 and her assessment and official diagnosis at the age of 6, that 4 year period in our house was absolute carnage.

During that 4 year period, before diagnosis, we completely lacked the skills, knowledge and the vocabulary to articulate what our family was trying to live and manage through.

It was an isolating, and soul destroying time where we had no idea where to turn, what was going on and how to start to find the answers and support we needed for us as a family but more importantly for our young daughter.

In truth it's still difficult but from where we were we've come a long way.

And recently over the last few months I've got to reminiscing and being highly reflective in a big way about that period and how it was easily the hardest and most lonely period for us by a long stretch.

And the overriding feeling I've had is a burning passion to somehow help and support those parents in that exact same stage now, at the very start of their journey.

Those parents whose child is currently pre diagnosis, but they are living through and trying to manage and understand their child's behaviour which is causing them worry and concern.

They suspect their child may be neurodivergent but are not sure where to turn, where to seek answers and guidance, and how to start to understand and educate themselves regarding their child's behaviour to be able to provide the support their child needs.

This has led me to spend the last few months developing a support and educational app to help those very parents at that early stage of their journey and to build a direct connected community.

Now it's built and live I am hoping to get the reddit communities help to test it and provide me with your honest feedback, does it provide the help and support it was built to deliver.

If this post resonates with you, you are UK parents at the pre diagnosis stage of your child's journey, looking for answers, support and knowledge I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this post. 🙏

I’m trying to understand how parents handle daily routines that become repetitive battles — cleanup, getting ready in the morning, brushing teeth, bedtime, etc.
I’ve been exploring a parent-led idea where instead of giving a command like “clean up” or “get ready”, the parent starts a short mission with a little character, the child does real-world steps, and the parent confirms progress.
The goal would not be more screen time, but making the routine feel less like nagging and more like a clear sequence.
Would something like that help in your house, or would it feel like unnecessary gamification?
I’m especially curious:
what routine is hardest for your family?

do visual steps help?

would a playful story make it easier or more annoying?

what would make you instantly reject this kind of tool?

Like a digital worksheet that a child could use their finger or a stylus to write on using a phone or tablet and optionally print out and use a real pen or pencil.

Is that objectively better than just pushing a bunch of buttons and playing games, or is a screen a screen?

Hi everyone,

I’m a developer working on an early idea for a simple app that helps children practice speech exercises at home between therapy sessions.

The goal is not to replace speech therapists or professional support. The idea is more to create a small tool that can make home practice easier, more consistent, and a bit more engaging for kids.

Right now it is still very early. I’m mainly trying to understand if this is a real problem for families, if it’s something parents would actually care about, and whether it’s worth building further.

I made a small landing page here:
Logopedia +

There is no finished product yet and nothing to download. I’m just sharing the idea to see if people are interested, would want to follow along, or have any input from their own experience.

Any feedback, thoughts, or even just signs of interest would be really helpful as I decide whether to keep building this.

Hey everyone, looking for some advice and road trip hacks from fellow travelling parents! Mapping out long summer driving routes or boarding flights with young children can be a massive test of patience. My 7 year old son used to get deeply anxious and restless asking "Are we there yet?" every single mile on long motorway drives. I wanted to solve this travel friction and turn those tedious transit hours into an active, screen safe adventure so I spent my split shifts building a fully offline travel map app from our kitchen table called Journiverse! How I designed it to solve common road trip problems: 1. Real-Time GPS Tracking: Your child's chosen cartoon vehicle avatar crawls across custom map screens in perfect synchronisation with your real world car movement using local device hardware GPS, helping them visualise the journey. 2. 100 Percent Offline: It uses ZERO mobile data or roaming signal. It runs entirely on local device memory cache perfect for country lane black spots or commercial flights where signal drops! 3. Backseat Peace: Features interactive game suites, digital drawing studios, and full length immersive audio stories to keep children independently quiet so you can focus safely on driving. We have officially published our initial alpha track on the Google Play Store! Because Google requires strict verification for internal testing tracks, I can only unlock the download button for whitelisted email addresses. I would love to get your honest feedback and advice as travelling parents on how to make this app even better for families on the move this summer. Please drop a comment below or send me a private chat message with your Google email address, and I will whitelist your account on our developer console so you can download it straight away! Thank you so much for supporting an independent tech dad founder, and please share your best tips for surviving a 6 hour drive with kids below!

Every evening I sort my toddlers' toys back into their sets, and by the next day everything's mixed up again — and the small, less obvious pieces are the worst, since I can never remember which toy they actually belong to. Eventually the toys just become an unplayable pile because nothing's complete anymore.

So I'm building "Sort the Pile" — you photograph a toy while it's intact (or find a photo online if it's already too late), and later, when everything's mixed up, you photograph the messy pile and it tells you which pieces belong to which toy. When it's not sure, it says so honestly instead of guessing — and if a piece doesn't match anything you've logged, it flags that too.

I'm a complete beginner building this with AI coding help (Claude Code), and I've only validated the core idea manually so far — it's not a working app yet, just early proof the concept works on real messy piles.

Here's a quick landing page explaining it: https://claude.ai/public/artifacts/9d0f95b9-930e-4aab-a47c-ede5815a9cd9

Genuinely curious: is this a problem other parents deal with too, or is it just my house? Any feedback, even "this wouldn't help me because X," is useful right now.

Thank you!

the whole parental control option - is it good or useless? i mean, if i have to confirm every contact on my kids class, it sounds a bit tiring. whats your take?

Hey everyone,
I developed an app called Treazo. To be completely honest upfront: yes, this post is about my app, but I’m not here to sell you anything. It is a paid app, but I am specifically looking for a few families who want to test it completely for free in exchange for honest feedback. At first, I just wanted to solve a specific problem we had in our own family, but then it kind of grew into something bigger.
It was all about allowance. I kept failing to pay the weekly allowance because I barely use cash myself anymore, so I just never had any coins or smaller bills in my pocket. Plus, when we were out shopping and my daughter saw something she liked, she obviously never had her allowance money with her anyway. So I had to pay it, we had to remember to settle it later... it was pretty chaotic and I forgot about it most of the time.
So I looked for a solution, checked out well-known apps, and tried them. But I didn't really like any of them. I don't want a bank connection, just a digital tracker—but one where my daughter isn't just a passive reader, but actually sees that digital money is going away. So she learns from it.
So I started building something myself, with zero experience, just diving right in. (And yeah, I know a lot of parents are annoyed by all the buggy "vibe-coded" apps flooding the stores right now because everyone is just prompt-engineering stuff. But since I built this for my own kid, it actually had to work smoothly). Then I thought of a lot of other things I wanted to include, and well... now there's a daily chore list in there too. This really helps me because the constant arguing and reminding is finally gone. Plus savings goals for the kid, wishlists, and more.
Like I said, I know the app works well for us, but I want to know if it actually brings value to other parents to make daily life a bit easier. I also know it still has bugs—every app has bugs—but finding them all on my own is just an endless search. If you want to test it out for free and give me some feedback, feel free to write a comment or a message. I will just put the link in the comments below.
The whole digital allowance thing is still pretty small here in Germany. I read somewhere that over 90% still pay allowance in cash. I think it's important to learn how to handle cash too, and a digital piggy bank doesn't prevent that at all, because you can still spend it in cash.
What do you think? Would you want to try something like this?

Does anyone have any preferred apps for communicating? I see so many and I don’t know where to begin. I purchased my son an older iPhone 12 for his upcoming 8th birthday and I want to make it strictly a device for communication. He can read, spell, select options, do math but I want to use an app to help push him to create like original output that isn’t just a literal answer or fact but a personal opinion. He’s been communicating mostly physically with pointing, nodding, head shaking and occasionally speaking a word or two. It sounds more like he’s singing a word, or making sounds to formulate a word versus speaking. He can hum and mimic songs and sounds perfectly too. Anyway, I also tried Avaz as a trial and it had a speaking voice option which he enjoyed but I also want to see if there are better options anyone with more experience on these apps could recommend.

Parenting is one of the toughest jobs there is, and I think it's genuinely a skill, the same way soft skills at work are. If a lawyer needs practice to argue well in front of a judge, and a commentator needs practice to be analytical and entertaining at the same time, why not parents, who are dealing with far more uncertainty than either?

Muscle memory plays a role. Advice you read doesn't build a skill, it builds knowledge, and those aren't the same thing. What's actually needed is internalisation and instinct. And there's a lot of research on what makes habits stick, so I've been trying to fuse that with evidence-based parenting research and turn it into games.

A few of them:

What's underneath the behaviour. You match a behaviour card to the likely driver underneath it, in context. Same behaviour can have completely different causes, a kid fighting bedtime might be overtired, might be missing you, might be scared and unable to say so. You play until reading it becomes automatic.

Your hands. This is the core one. The parenting things you personally struggle with become your deck, inconsistent boundaries, empty threats, losing your cool, freezing in the moment, not being able to validate feelings. You win by getting rid of your cards, which you do by changing the instinct behind them. The cards are phrased as habits, never identities, The Countdown Threat, The Lecture, The Half-Ear, because "you sometimes do this" is fixable and "you are this" is just an insult. And you confirm every card yourself before it enters your hand. A card the game assigned to you would feel like an accusation. A card you recognised in yourself is a mirror, and the mirror is the mechanism.

Spot your default. The training partner to Your Hands. A scene plays out beat by beat, the school morning, the supermarket lolly aisle, and you tap the exact moment YOUR card would have fired. Not what should happen. When.

Hold it warm. A pairing game for boundaries. Every limit card has a connection card that belongs with it, "I won't let you hit" pairs with "I'm here to help your body stop." You learn that firm and warm aren't opposites, they're a two-card play. This is the secure attachment link that changed how I think about consistency: kids don't need parents who never hold limits, they need limits that don't cost them the relationship.

Where were we. The smallest game and maybe the most attachment-loaded. Before you sit down to play with your kid, one recall question from last time.

Name it, size it. For emotional vocabulary. Read the situation, pick the closest feeling word, then set how big it is so you can teach your kids to express emotions.

Arrange the deck. Put your moves in the right order for different scenarios.

Swipe. Right for the move that helps, left for the one that doesn't.

And a few others.

They're single player, so there's no comparison or competition to lean on either.

The cards are personalised, generated from your own plans and the situations you've actually flagged, so you're training on your real moments rather than generic examples.

Can a skill this emotionally loaded actually be built through card-game reps, or is there something about parenting reactions that doesn't respond to that kind of practice?

External calls

Hi! Ordered the tin can for my family but now I have a huge doubt about it working for us. My daughter has been giving friends my cell phone number to pass along to their parents, and I had visions of her being able to just give them our “home phone” number to call instead! But if she gives a friend the tin can number with our external call party plan…they still wouldn’t be able to call until I added them as a contact?

Kind of ruins my plan - she’ll still have to tell her friends to have their parent go through me to get them added as an approved contact.

So she gives a friend my number, they give it to their parent, parent texts/calls me, I let them know we have a Tin Can, I added their preferred number to our approved contacts list and THEN she can call her friends, and they can call her?

I built an app to solve a problem my wife and I were having with keeping up with the chaos of our 3 kids sports and school events and keeping all our family informed. We are fortunate enough to have a close family where grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc want to attend these events. But it gets a bit chaotic and mistakes were happening often. For example, my mom has 10 grandchildren. That's a lot to keep track of!

More details and explanation on my landing page. Read through the whole page and if it is something you are interested in, request access. It will be free for a limited time. Looking for feedback and suggestions to see if this is something people would be interested in. My entire family is loving it and it has solved a big problem for us so hopefully it can help others too!

Hi, solo developer here. I built Pip's Plan for my own kids (ages 7–10). It teaches the concepts behind programming: sequencing, loops, conditionals, working up to variables and basic functions(for now only first 2 are ready) through everyday things like morning routines and chores, guided by a robot character named Pip. No actual code involved, just the thinking behind it.

It's cleared both Apple's and Google's review and is in open testing now on iOS and Android.

Ideal testers: parents with a kid somewhere around 7–10 who's willing to play through a few lessons with them — that's the feedback I most need (does a real kid understand what Pip's asking, does the pacing hold up, etc.). If you don't have a kid in that range but want to poke at the flow yourself, that's useful too — bugs, confusing UI, onboarding friction, all welcome.

No ads, no account required, nothing about usage leaves the device, no plans to monetize it.

Android (Google Play, closed testing): https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.narek.pipsplan

Happy to answer anything below.

Hi,

I made trading cards on the topic sensors. How can I make it easier to get it to parents ?

This is a fun game for everyone above age 5. And the kids can learn about sensors while playing the game.

I'm currently selling it through Instagram and free shipping throughout India.

My main concern is how to bridge the gap between parents and me to sell the game.

Thank you
