Free baby tracker apps in the UK
What each app gives you without paying, what it keeps back and what it costs on the UK App Store, including where ours falls short. Checked on 19 October 2026.
Which baby tracker app is free in the UK?
Several baby tracker apps are free to use in the UK with no time limit. They differ in whether your partner can join for free and whether the free plan carries adverts. CubTrack, which is built for UK parents, and Onoco both include partner sharing on their free plans, though CubTrack's free plan keeps 30 days of history. Huckleberry's free plan syncs with other caregivers, and Baby Tracker by Nighp is free with adverts that a one-off £4.99 removes.
Nara Baby is no longer one of them. After a 7-day trial it costs £9.99 a month, or £99.99 for life, on the UK App Store, and the alternatives to Nara Baby are compared on a separate page in US prices.
MyBaby, which we make, is free for one child with no time limit and has no adverts on iPhone, but inviting your partner needs a paid plan.
MyBaby is our app, and it appears in this comparison. Every fact about every app here, ours included, comes from a public listing or the developer's own page, with the link beside it, and each app has its downside stated.
Do you still need the red book?
Yes. None of these apps replaces your baby's personal child health record, the red book. The NHS says to take it to every baby clinic or GP visit, where it is used to record your child's weight and height, vaccinations and other important information. An app is your own record of what happens in between: feeds, nappies, sleep and medicines.
How we compared them
We answered four questions from each app's UK App Store listing, Google Play listing or website on 19 October 2026. Prices are UK App Store prices. Every app here is also on Android.
- Can you keep using it free with no time limit, and is your history limited?
- Can your partner join on the free plan, on their own phone?
- Does the free plan show adverts? We use the Contains ads label on Google Play, which the developer declares.
- What do the paid plans cost in pounds?

The free apps, one by one
CubTrack
Best free option for two parents who want separate logins
CubTrack is built for UK parents, with UK dates, times and spelling. Its free plan covers you and one partner, each on your own phone and login, with a breastfeeding timer that remembers the last side, a feed in progress shown on your partner's phone, a medicine log showing who gave the last dose and when the next is allowed, a temperature log that signposts NHS 111, and a free PDF report for your health visitor or GP. CubTrack Plus, £4.99 a month, adds more children, grandparents and other carers, full history and WHO centile charts.
Better than MyBaby at: Partner sharing with separate logins, a live feed on both phones and a PDF report, all free.
The catch: The free plan keeps 30 days of history and one child, and the app launched in June 2026 with 6 UK ratings so far.

Onoco
Best free option for a nanny or the wider family
Onoco's listing says caregiver sharing is free for all users, with unlimited caregivers, an access level you choose for each person and a dedicated nanny account. The free plan also covers feeding, sleep, nappies, growth, medicine and over 460 developmental milestones. Premium, £8.99 a month or £59.99 a year, adds AI nap predictions, a routine planner, expert articles and data export, and every caregiver gets it at no extra cost.
Better than MyBaby at: Unlimited caregivers on the free plan, each with their own access level.
The catch: Exporting your logs is a Premium feature, and the app is in English and three other languages.
Sources: App Store (GB), Google Play
Huckleberry
Best free option if sleep is the problem
Huckleberry's free plan covers logging, a two-sided breastfeeding timer, several children, reminders and syncing with other caregivers. SweetSpot nap prediction and sleep schedules are on Plus, which the UK price list shows at £10.99 or £11.99 a month and £59.99 or £64.99 a year. Premium is £12.99 or £14.99 a month, or £105.99 a year.
Better than MyBaby at: Free caregiver sync and several children, and the best-known nap prediction of any app here.
The catch: The sleep timing features are paid, and the listing names English as its only language.

Baby Tracker by Nighp
Best proven free log
Baby Tracker by Nighp is free with adverts. A one-off £4.99 removes them, and Plus, £5.99 a month or £49.99 a year, adds timing cues for sleep, feeds and nappies and extends to everyone in your sync group. Its FAQ describes sync groups that keep iPhone and Android phones on one log.
Better than MyBaby at: Free sync between iPhone and Android, and a one-off way to remove adverts.
The catch: The free plan carries adverts, and every phone joins the sync group with the same email and password.

Pebbi
Best for two phones with no account
Pebbi's free plan includes full tracking, real-time sync between two devices, offline logging and CSV export, with no account and no adverts. Premium Household is £2.49 a month, £19.99 a year or £59.99 once, for up to 10 caregivers and 5 babies.
Better than MyBaby at: Two-phone sync and CSV export, free, without creating an account.
The catch: It is new, with 4 UK ratings, and a grandparent or nanny on a third phone needs Premium.
Sources: App Store (GB), Google Play
Baby Daybook
Best for languages
Baby Daybook's logging is free and its listing covers 40 languages. Family sync is Premium, at £38.99 a year or £63.99 once in the UK price list, and its Premium page says caregivers on a shared profile get Premium without paying again.
Better than MyBaby at: 40 languages to our 8, and a lifetime price £16 below ours.
The catch: Sharing with your partner is paid, as in MyBaby, and Google Play marks it as containing adverts.

Nara Baby
No longer free
Nara Baby became a paid app in 2026. Its FAQ describes a 7-day free trial from your first entry, after which the app is view and export only until someone subscribes. The UK price list shows £9.99 a month and £99.99 for life, alongside promotional prices. One plan covers every caregiver and child in the family.
Better than MyBaby at: One paid plan covers every caregiver and child.
The catch: Nothing is free beyond the 7-day trial.

Where does MyBaby fit?
MyBaby is our app, so weigh this part accordingly. MyBaby is free to keep using for one child with no time limit, on iPhone and Android: every log type, the breastfeeding and sleep timers, home screen widgets and a guide to 247 first foods with allergen flags. Each of the 247 foods carries serving notes by age, which is where the app is most useful once weaning starts.
Inviting a second parent needs a paid plan, held by whoever sends the invitation. The invited parent then logs for free, but reports and the assistant follow each person's own plan. That puts it behind CubTrack, Onoco and Huckleberry for couples who want to share for nothing.
On iPhone the paid plan is £2.99 a week, £49.99 a year or £79.99 once. On Android it is a monthly or annual subscription, with no one-time purchase. The iPhone app has no adverts. The Android app shows adverts on the free plan. New accounts get every paid feature except the AI assistant for their first 3 days on iPhone and 7 days on Android, with no card needed.
It has 1 rating on the UK App Store, it cannot import another app's export, and from version 2.0 the iPhone app needs iOS 26.
Our facts are read from the apps' code: iPhone version 2.0 and Android version 1.5.1, on 19 October 2026.
