Top notch!!!

As a physician who had a Bili-baby and used this tool first hand, I highly recommend it! It is incredibly useful and adding new values is very easy to do.The phototherapy/risk/exchange plots are high quality and accurate. I was able to send screenshots to family to help keep everyone in the loop for progress.My one critique would be that transitioning between the risk level text and actual plots was not intuitive at all and I almost missed the functionality entirely. The user interface needs to be adjusted to make it more obvious that you can scroll through. Yes there is a dot, but there should be an additional 3 unfilled dots next to it to show there are a total of 4 options to scroll through.

Awesome app. Actually free to use, ads are not invasive, useful tracking feature. I’m glad I found it.

I absolutely love this app. It is spot on. I love how it figures out the babies age in hours for you. It graphs and trends the bili levels. The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars is because the app keeps crashing.

Useful but interface a little clunky

Helpful app but UI isn’t the best - text boxes sometimes don’t respond and the link to further information doesn’t work. Overall not bad for a free calculator though

Hi Noah, Thanks for the feedback! Would you mind giving us a few more details by emailing bilibabyapp@gmail.com about what text boxes aren't working for you and what mobile OS you're using? We'd love to hear any other ideas about UI improvements as well!
