The job
What do you need the app to do?
Week-by-week reading
What to Expect describes a week-by-week tracker based on the due date. Size comparisons on that site are illustrations, not measurements of your pregnancy.The Bump says you enter a due date, or use their calculator, and get a fetal-development timeline. The listing says last-period calculators can be off, and that an ultrasound date from a clinician should guide care.Flo's pregnancy page describes week-by-week information. A basic Flo account is free. Flo Premium for pregnancy tracking includes week-by-week growth, a weekly checklist, Secret Chats, and sharing with a partner. The pregnancy page and the Flo Premium page did not print a dollar price.
Community
Peanut describes nearby friends, groups, and questions, and names fertility, pregnancy, motherhood, and menopause. The homepage says "Try it for free" and did not print a dollar price. It is a community, not a clinic. What to Expect's app page describes birth-month community groups. Flo's pregnancy page describes a place to chat with other parents-to-be.
Kick logging
Count the Kicks is a free app from a stillbirth-prevention nonprofit for logging usual movement later in pregnancy. The download page describes recording how long it takes to feel 10 movements, and says to count every day in the third trimester. It says to call a healthcare provider right away if the strength of movements changes, or if the time to reach 10 movements changes. The organization is an education nonprofit, not your hospital. Pregnancy+ includes a kick counter and a contraction timer. What to Expect's My Journal includes kick counts from trying to conceive through postpartum. BabyCenter's homepage lists a kick tracker. Ovia's pregnancy page describes logging fetal movement.
Employer or health-plan app
Ovia's pregnancy page describes symptom tracking, clinical education, and logging moods, symptoms, and fetal movement. It says a Care Team is available by phone, video, and in-app messaging. The homepage says Care Team support is at no cost to the member, and the site lists individuals, health plans, and employers. Some features depend on whether the plan offers Ovia. The pregnancy page did not list a dollar price. The listing calls it coaching and education software, not an emergency line.
Illustrations
Pregnancy+ is Philips' tracker. The page describes 40 animated 3D models and says all 42 weeks are illustrated, with daily information on diet, exercise, and labor. Philips states the app is not for medical use and does not replace a doctor. The models are illustrations, not pictures of your baby. The listing says Philips offers Pregnancy+ as a free download, with optional paid content in the app. The pregnancy page checked for the guide did not print a dollar price, and it did not say the download is free. Confirm the current price in the store.
Also on the pregnancy guide: Glow Nurture ("Follow your prenatal health," a due date, a registry, and preparing for a newborn; the apps page says "Get FREE"; the homepage listed a 7-day trial, then $59.99 a year for Glow Premium, on October 15, 2026),BabyCenter (symptom tracking, kick tracker, "Is it safe?", Bumpie, and a contraction timer; the homepage did not say whether the app itself is free; the website listing says it is free to read and ad-supported), and Natural Cycles' Follow Pregnancy mode, which is a mode inside a subscription app. That page names trackers for baby movements and symptoms and did not print a dollar price. Natural Cycles' homepage says you must be over 18, that it does not protect against STIs, and that it is 93% effective with typical use and 98% effective with perfect use. Those lines describe the birth-control use of the app. Regulatory clearance is not a promise that the method will work for you.
