It’s our job to ensure you get the most out of the Baby Daybook app. With that in mind, we have created more ways to see and interact with your data without opening the app on your phone. Our watch app on Android and Apple watches allows you to conveniently track feedings, diaper changes, naps, and more when you’re on the go. Widgets enhance the experience even more by letting you see your data at a glance from the Home Screen or when the phone is locked.Â
This page explains the benefits of each of these ways and provides detailed instructions for using them.
Home Screen widgets
Widgets are a great way to see your favorite activities straight from your phone’s Home Screen. Our app offers widgets in three sizes: small, medium, and large. The widget’s size determines how much information can be displayed on it. The small widget shows details for a single activity, and larger sizes can display multiple activities simultaneously. In addition, all widgets show an activity reminder if you set it up, which makes it even easier to stay organized and on top of your baby’s schedule. Some widgets even have action buttons to quickly start or stop an activity without opening the app.
Instructions:
Touch and hold on an empty space on the Home Screen, select “Widgets,” and choose the desired Baby Daybook widget.
Sticky notifications
On Android phones, you can add permanent “sticky” notifications. They stick to the top of the notification shade and cannot be swiped away like regular notifications. The main benefit of these notifications is that they can be accessed on your phone’s Lock Screen, which allows you to easily see and interact with them without unlocking the phone. Starting or stopping an ongoing activity from the Lock Screen is even more convenient when you have a fuzzy baby in your arms.
Instructions:
Open the Baby Daybook app on your Android phone. Tap the bell icon at the upper right corner of the Home tab, then tap Sticky notifications at the bottom, and switch on the notifications of activities you want to see on the Lock Screen.
Android Watch (Wear OS) app
Easily keep track of your baby’s activities and progress throughout the day without constantly checking your phone. Accessing an app straight from your wrist is much easier than pulling out your phone if you’re trying to catch up with what’s happening. With our app on the Android Watch, you get quick access to all your baby’s events for the day: record everything you need about your baby’s schedule, start and stop activities, select activity groups, add amounts, see reminders and more. The data you add to the watch app is automatically synced with the Baby Daybook app on your phone.
Instructions:
The watch app should automatically appear on your watch after you install the Baby Daybook app on your phone. You can also download it from the Google Play Store on your watch.
Android Watch complications
Use complications to see the latest information of your baby’s activities on the watch face. Customize your watch face with different sizes of complications. Select any activity to be displayed or a baby’s profile photo to quickly access the app with a single tap. It can be handy for those with two kids, as you can add both profiles on the watch face to easily access each kid’s daily tracking.
Instructions:
With the watch face showing, touch and hold the display, then tap Customize. Find the Complications editing page, tap a complication and choose one from the Baby Daybook app. When you’re finished, press the Home button on your watch to save changes.
Android Watch Tiles
Tiles provide a quick and convenient way to access important information on your Android Watch without opening the app. Our tiles display the time of one or multiple activities and reminder details, allowing you to access the watch app with a single tap. Tiles are also customizable: you can easily change the baby profile or toggle between activities on an active tile.
Instructions:
Tiles can be accessed by swiping left or right on the watch face. To add a new tile, touch and hold any tile, tap the plus button, and select one of the tiles of our app.
