BabyDoppler 4+

Working great for piece of mind

I am only 8 weeks along and after IVF o am more apprehensive that things are going good without knowing. So I purchased this and was so lucky to have found the heartbeat so early on! It definitely eased my mind and let me not worry so much. Thank you for making a wonderful product that lets me share my baby’s heartbeat so easily to my family and the information that is shared with it is very fun as well.

Hi Rebeccah80, we are glad you are enjoying the app and the share functionality. Congratulations and best of luck with the pregnancy! Thanks, The BabyDoppler RD Team.

Great idea, but does not work as intended

I love the concept of this app; however, it does not work as intended. Nearly every time I try to record my baby’s heartbeat, the app tells me there was a calculation error. I have tried so many times to resolve this problem - I’ve reset the app, moved the doppler around, moved my phone closer or further away from the doppler while recording, but I still get the same result. I am using the recommended sonoline B Doppler, and I can hear the heartbeat clearly, but the app almost always has a processing error.

This would only be mildly frustrating if I could at least still share my recordings, but if the app fails to calculate the heart rate, it will not give you the option to share the recording. If I hit share most recent recording, it shares the most recent recording in which the heartbeat was successfully detected, not my most recently saved recording.

On top of that, because the app fails to calculate the heart rate, I get a reminder to add a new recording every time I open the app. It would be great if I could go into the settings and choose the frequency of these reminders (daily, weekly, turn reminders off completely, etc.) But this is not an option, so I am constantly told I’m late to record my baby’s heartbeat even though I literally just attempted for 30 minutes, but every attempt failed.

I hope this app can work out these issues soon.

Sound Problems and Harmful Notifications

I’ve been using the app off and on for about 15 weeks with the Sonoline B baby doppler. Every time I record baby’s heartbeat it is overshadowed by static in the recording to the point where the heartbeat is barely audible. I can’t send those recordings to family and friends with sound like that. I have to record the heartbeat with my camera and instead of the app to send to others. There is no static sound in real life, the heartbeat is clear as day in person, and there’s no static in the videos I take. Plus, the app will notify/tell you a recording is overdue 24hrs after the last recording. Recording that often is unhealthy according to my OB/GYN and high risk specialist. Do better Baby Doppler!
