Help & Support

Milk to meals, tracked without the stress.

Thanks for using Tiny Tummies. If something's not working or you're not sure how to do something, this page should help. If it doesn't, email hello@tinytummies.uk and I'll get back to you.

Getting started

How do I add my baby?

Open the app and tap "Add child" on the Today tab. Enter their name and date of birth. You can add more than one child and switch between them by tapping their name at the top.

How do I log a feed?

On the Today tab, tap Milk, Food, Meds or Sick, fill in the details, and save. You can log something now or change the time to when it actually happened, which is handy if you're writing it up after the feed rather than during.

Do I need an account?

You sign in once with your Apple ID (Sign in with Apple). That's it: no passwords to remember, and your feeding data is tied privately to your account.

Everyday use

Can I edit or delete something I logged?

Yes. Tap any entry to open it, then edit or delete. Everything is editable: amounts, times, notes.

Is there a faster way to log foods we eat all the time?

Yes. Open the food sheet and you'll see "Add again" at the top, with your baby's most-logged foods. Tap one and the details fill in for you. You can also search for a packaged product by name or barcode right inside the food sheet, and picking a result fills in the name and allergens.

How do I set a feeding schedule?

Settings > Milk schedule > Edit. Add your usual feed times and they'll appear on the Today tab as one-tap slots. Feed on demand? Just leave it empty and nothing changes.

What's the milk guide?

If you log your baby's weight (Settings > Weight), the app can show a gentle, NHS-based range for how much milk is typical for their size. It's a reassurance, never a target, and it's easy to turn off in Settings if you'd rather not see it.

How do medicine reminders work?

Log a one-off dose (like Calpol) and the app notes when the next one is allowed. For a course of medicine, set the times and Tiny Tummies reminds you for each dose and tracks which you've given. It records what you enter; it never checks or calculates doses. Always follow the label or your GP's advice.

I typed a medicine name wrong and now it's stuck in my filters.

Settings > Medicine names. You can rename it (which fixes every past entry too) or hide it from the History filters without deleting anything.

I'm not getting notifications.

Check that notifications are allowed: iPhone Settings > Tiny Tummies > Notifications > Allow Notifications. Reminders are the only notifications the app sends. Nothing else will ever buzz you.

How does checking a product work?

On the Guidance tab, tap "Check a product". Scan a barcode or search by name to see its salt, sugar and additives, without logging it. It uses Open Food Facts, a free public database, so not every product is listed. Only the barcode or the search text you type is sent; nothing about you or your baby goes with it.

Your data & privacy

Is my data private?

Yes. No ads, no tracking, no analytics, and your data is never sold, least of all your children's. Tiny Tummies is a one-time purchase with no subscription.

How do I export or delete my data?

Settings > Delete all my data removes everything but keeps your sign-in. Settings > Delete account removes everything, disconnects Sign in with Apple from your account, and closes the account itself. If you'd like a copy of your data, email hello@tinytummies.uk. The full privacy policy is here: privacy policy.

I have more than one child. Is their data separate?

Yes, each child has their own separate records. Switch between them at the top of the Today tab.

Purchases

Is there a subscription?

No. Tiny Tummies is bought once. Tiny Tummies Plus, an optional upgrade for extra features, is also a one-time purchase. Nothing is ever a subscription.

What does Tiny Tummies Plus include?

Plus adds growth charts, reports for appointments, family sharing for up to six people, and colour themes. Everything you track is included in the base app. See what Plus adds.

I bought the app on another device, or I've got a new phone.

Your purchase is tied to your Apple ID. On the new device, download the app and sign in with the same Apple ID. Settings > Restore purchases brings Tiny Tummies Plus back too.

Still stuck?

Email hello@tinytummies.uk. A real person (me) reads every message. If you're reporting a problem, it helps to include your iPhone model and iOS version (iPhone Settings > General > About).

Got an idea for the app? There's a "Request a feature" button in Settings, or just email. I read every one.

Tiny Tummies offers general guidance based on NHS advice. It isn't medical advice. Always speak to your health visitor or GP if you have concerns about your baby's feeding or health.
