About Waves - Birth Team App
Time contractions with one tap, and let your partner, midwife or doula follow along live. Waves is a contraction timer built for the whole birth team. Start and stop with a single tap, see how long and how far apart at a glance, and share your labor in real time with the people supporting you. No sign-up, and your name never leaves your device. FOR PARENTS AND PARTNERS • One-tap timing Start and stop each contraction with a single tap. Your timeline, averages and chart build themselves. • Share live with your birth team Invite your partner, doula or midwife by link or QR code. They see each contraction as it happens and get a notification when one starts. • Time together With a collaboration connection, either of you can start and stop contractions, so a partner can take over the phone. • Lock Screen, Dynamic Island and widgets Keep the timer in view and start or stop without opening the app. • Apple Watch Time from your wrist. Your Watch stays in sync with your phone. • Charts and averages See labor progress on a clear chart, with averages for recent contractions. • Intensity Rate each contraction from mild to very strong. Intensity is color-coded on your chart. • More than contractions Log water breaking, nausea, shaking, notes and the birth itself. Everything is editable, because labor isn't always linear. • Sessions Keep separate sessions for different pregnancies or labor attempts, and hand a session's data to the person it belongs to. • PDF and CSV exports Share a report with your chart, intensity and notes with your care team. FOR MIDWIVES, DOULAS AND NURSES • Client dashboard Follow every client in one place: who is in labor, who is contracting now, and your own notes on each. • Alerts when it matters Be notified when contractions are close together, when labor looks active, when waters break and when the baby is born. • Invite a client in one link Your client connects to you in a tap. • Built for professional use Clinical Terms are in the app, and a Business Associate Agreement is available online for practices that need one. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account needed. An optional recovery code restores your data on a new phone, without an email address. • Names and notes stay on your device. They are never stored on our servers in readable form. • Delete your account and all of your data at any time from Settings. DESIGNED FOR LABOR A calm, dark interface that's easy on the eyes at night, on iPhone and iPad. Available in English and Spanish. Waves is a timing and communication tool, not a medical device. Always follow your doctor's or midwife's guidance, and call them or emergency services when you need care. Questions or ideas? Use Settings → Help & feedback in the app, or email [email protected]. Sharing with your birth team and some features require a Waves plan. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
