B. How to choose for shared care

A few questions to ask of any tracker:

Separate logins or one shared login? Some apps have each caregiver sign in as themselves. Others have everyone sign in to the same account.
Does a second caregiver cost extra? Check whether sharing is in the free tier or a paid plan.
Does it work without signal? Check whether you can log offline and how entries catch up.
What can you export, and in what format? CSV is handy for spreadsheets, and PDF is easier to print or show your health visitor.
Does it run on both your phones? Check the platforms column.

C. Free tiers compared

Baby Daybook: its website doesn't describe a free tier. Its Premium page lists family sync and export as Premium benefits.
Baby Tracker (Nighp): its FAQ refers to a free version and a paid version. It doesn't list what's in each.
Glow Baby: Glow says the app is "free to download and use", with Glow Premium unlocking extras, including adding a second caregiver (Family Plan).
Huckleberry: its pricing page lists a free tier with logging, reports and syncing across multiple devices.
Milkstop: free to use, with no subscriptions.
Nara Baby: its FAQ talks about subscriptions and explains how to export your data "if you don't subscribe". It doesn't list a free tier by name.
