For a family tracking feeds, sleep and nappies together, Veilleuse comes out ahead. There are no ads, you add things in seconds, you can ask about the baby's day, and every carer has their own account. Baby Tracker by Nighp leads on its free tier, growth charts and reports, and here is how the two compare.
We make Veilleuse, a baby tracker for iPhone, available now on the App Store. We tried to be fair to Baby Tracker - Newborn Log by Nighp: every price and feature of it below comes from its App Store listing, checked in October 2026.
The short answer
For a family sharing feeds, sleep and nappies, Veilleuse is the better Baby Tracker alternative. There are no ads. You add a feed, a nappy or a sleep with one tap, or say several in one sentence and check them before saving. You can ask "when was the last feed?" and get the answer from your own entries, use built-in Siri phrases with the phone locked, and give each carer their own account on one family subscription. Baby Tracker by Nighp is the better fit if you want all core tracking free with ads, or WHO growth charts and PDF reports.

Veilleuse makes feeds, sleep and nappies quick to add
Both apps track feeds with side timers, bottles, pumping, sleep, nappies, growth and medicine. Veilleuse puts its effort into getting them in fast, sharing them, and answering questions about them.
One tap for most things. Each card on the Veilleuse Home screen has a +. It opens the form for that thing: a breastfeed (left, right or both), a bottle of formula, expressed milk or mixed, solids, a nappy, a sleep or pumping. Set the time, add a note if you like, and save. Every entry shows who added it.
Say several things in one go. Say or type one sentence, like "bottle of 120 ml at 2, wet nappy at 3, asleep at 3:30". Veilleuse turns it into draft cards, up to 8 from a sentence of up to 500 characters. You check every draft before anything is saved, then tap Save all.
Ask about the baby's day. Ask "when was the last poo?" or "how much did she drink yesterday?". You can ask for the last one, a count, a total time, a total amount or the latest growth measure, with up to 3 questions in one sentence. The answer is computed from your own entries, never guessed. Saying several things at once and asking questions are part of the Family plan.
Siri phrases that are ready to use. On iPhone with iOS 17 or later, say "Feeding on the left in Veilleuse", "Done feeding in Veilleuse", "Wet nappy in Veilleuse" or "Last poo in Veilleuse?". They work with the phone locked, in six languages, and Siri saves for the baby shown in the app.
Feed and sleep timers on the lock screen. A running sleep, breastfeed or pumping timer shows on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island, with a Stop button on iOS 17 or later.
Every carer on their own account. The Family plan covers 3 babies and 3 people: you and two carers. Invite them with an 8-character code or a link. Everyone can add with the same rights, and each entry says who added it. Changes sync about every 30 seconds while the app is open.
No ads, ever. Veilleuse has no ads and no analytics. It sends crash reports, with no personal data in them, and nothing else.

Say it in one sentence. Check the entries, then save.
Ask a question. The answer comes from your own entries.
