Updated & resolved: Disappointed with functionality

Update: happy to report they’ve fixed the bug and went above and beyond to set me up with a product manager for a chat to explain the issue and make sure the bug was fixed. Great stuff and very happy using my app now! For the price, I am disappointed with the functionality and ease of use of the app. I enjoy the content. But my week/day pregnancy counter does not reset daily at midnight - it resets at about 2pm in the afternoon for me, which is the time I originally downloaded the app. I’ve been in touch with support and they say they can’t fix it and see nothing wrong. It is very frustrating because I can’t imagine that is how the app is designed. The delay in daily count switch causes me to dig deeper each day to find the correct meditation, rather than it being on the opening screen, keep track of the count in my head to determine which meditation to do, and my meditations are not accurately reflected in my streak. If I meditate in the morning, the streak thinks I am meditating “yesterday” essentially, I would have to meditate only every evening for the correct streak count. For the price of this app, I would expect this basic functionality and expectation to be accurate and fixable.

Our goal is to provide incredible support to women in their journey to motherhood. It looks like we fell short of your expectations, and would love to learn more. As a young company, I’m always looking for feedback on what’s working and where we can improve. Would you be open to speaking with a member of our team for a few minutes to help me understand more about your personal journey to motherhood and your experience with Expectful? Please email care@expectful.com to share a few times that work for you in the next few days and your preferred phone number. Someone from our team will send an invitation to connect with you.

Wish I had this in my previous pregnancies!

Im 23 weeks into my third pregnancy and I only wish I knew about this sooner. I’ve only been using this app for two days, but even after my first meditative session, the calming effects lasted with me for two days before I (was able to) listen to the next session. I’ve never been able to commit to meditating consistently throughout my life, although I’ve attempted it many many times throughout the years. I love this app and already see the effects it’s having in my life. This is so exciting. I struggled with postpartum depression in my previous pregnancies and also at the beginning of this pregnancy. I believe this app will truly help me staffing off depression and am truly motivated to fully committing to this app on the daily based on the results I’m already experiencing. With two kids, I truly love and appreciate that I get options for 5,10, or 20 minute sessions depending on what I can do for the day. I love the educational classes and have already attended one. Can’t share enough good things about this app. I truly recommend it for all expecting mothers!

Great, but I would like the daily suggestions back

I have been using Expectful since I was pregnant with my son almost 3 years ago. It’s been so helpful and I love it! That being said, I miss having the daily suggestion on which meditation to do. This changed with a recent update I think where now I always have to look through the library to find one that might be good. Some days I’m just not in the headspace nor do I have the time to look through the library. I just need something really quickly. I can’t say I always loved the daily suggestions, but they at least got me to focus on meditation in the little time that I had. I find I’m not using the app as much because I have to spend more time deciding what I want to do.All this to say, I give it 5 stars because I have loved it for so long and it’s been a tool and a comfort through my biggest life transitions. I’m also not going to stop using it because I don’t like this new update. I still think it will bring tremendous value to any new user.

A pregnancy app that actually supports you
04/07/2023

This is my second pregnancy and I ran the gamut through pregnancy apps with my first: most were cutesy “watch your baby grow” some were tip based apps that actually provided some very unhelpful stereotypical advice found in books treating pregnancy like a pathology. (It is not a pathology). Other apps present you with risks and data, adding to stress and pointing out stuff I already knew. Bottom line Expectful is the first pregnancy app to actual support you as a complete woman experiencing pregnancy: stress management, meditation, support, and counseling. This is wonderful. There are also sections for body health and well being, embracing us as mothers with strengths and fears instead of instruments of failings and pathologies, which is so so common in how mother and baby are treated in the US. I don’t need more of that, Expectful has brought me tears of happiness (literally) with the support I have gotten. I WISH American healthcare was always like this app!!!
