About this app

What Firstyear does

Firstyear is the offline baby milestone tracker that survives your next phone. The CDC's free Milestone Tracker is excellent — but its top App Store complaint, year after year, is the same one: you get a new phone, you open the app, and your baby's tracked data is gone. Firstyear is the version where the data lives in a place you control and exports as a real document you can keep. What ships in v1: — CDC-aligned milestone checklist by age (2/4/6/9/12/15/18/24/30 months). Each milestone has its plain-language description ("copies sounds you make," "holds head steady without support"). — Tap to mark achieved with a date. Add a note or photo of the moment. — "When to act early" gentle flags. The CDC's published warning signs surfaced when a child is past the typical age — informational, never diagnostic. — Growth log. Weight, length, head circumference at each well-visit. Swift Charts of percentile trajectories using bundled WHO/CDC curves. — First-year keepsake PDF. One-tap export — every achieved milestone with date + photo, growth curves, your notes — formatted as a printable keepsake. — Multi-child support, on one device. — iCloud backup via your own Apple ID (optional). Never our server. — No account, no ads, no subscription. For the 3.4M new US parents each year — and especially the ones who got burned by their previous app and want a record they can keep forever.
