How much work is logging?
Not much. Sleep, nursing, bottle, solids and diaper are one tap each on the home screen or in the widget; chips like “−15 min” adjust the time. For the forecast, the start and end of each sleep are enough. If you used another app before, import your history and you don’t start from zero. Everything else, from temperature to milestones, you only log if you want to keep it.
What does naido cost?
The app is free: forecasts, diary, health, reminders, import, export, multiple children, no ads. The only paid part is Naido Premium for the family: sync between your devices over Wi-Fi, over the internet and with the web app, plus sharing with caregivers: €19.99 a year or €2.99 a month (founding price). One subscription covers the whole family, not each device. Prices in other currencies are shown in Google Play.
Where is my data, and what can the operator see?
Your entries live on your phone, and there is no account. Your phone computes the forecast itself. On the same Wi-Fi, your devices exchange data directly and encrypted, without our server. If sync over the internet is also switched on, an encrypted package goes to the mailbox as well. When you sync over the internet, only an end-to-end encrypted package sits in a mailbox in the EU, readable only by your paired devices. We see the mailbox address, version and time information and, if applicable, the Premium proof, but no entries. The mailbox is deleted 30 days after the last upload. Details are in the privacy policy.
Can I bring my data from another app?
Yes. naido recognises Napper files (including the CSV files from the napper-export tool) and CSV files from Huckleberry automatically. Other CSV files work if they have one column for the kind of entry and one for the start; end, note, amount and nursing side come along if present. For Baby Daybook and Baby Buddy the app guides you through the transfer during import. Reading happens on your phone. If the import brings enough usable history (at least ten sleeps it can recalculate), naido then shows how well the forecast would have hit in it.
How do our devices sync?
You pair the devices with a QR code: on one phone go to Settings → Family & devices → “Add device” (up to version 0.28: under Data), scan it on the other. On the same Wi-Fi they sync directly with each other, without the mailbox. For on the go and for the web app there is sync over the internet through an end-to-end encrypted mailbox; the app asks for your consent first. If it is switched on, the encrypted package also goes to the mailbox while you are at home. Both are part of Naido Premium.
Can grandma or the nursery log too?
Yes, with “Share with caregivers” (Naido Premium, free for the caregiver). Under Settings → Family & devices you create a share with times and send the link. During those times the caregiver logs in the browser on their own phone, without an app and without an account: sleep, bottle, solids and diaper, as you allow. They only see the child’s name and age in months, the forecast, your sleep times of today, since when the child has been awake, the last feed and their own entries from the last 7 days; no older history, no notes, no health details of yours. Your phone checks every entry before it goes into the log. Every share ends by itself and can be revoked.
Is there naido for iPhone?
On iPhone the encrypted web app works today, an App Store version is in the works. You sign in to the web app with a QR code that an Android device with naido scans. It syncs through the encrypted mailbox and is therefore part of Naido Premium.
Can I keep check-ups and the U-Heft in naido?
Yes. naido has check-up plans for Germany, Austria and Switzerland; elsewhere you add your own appointments. For the German U-Heft, the attendance card or the vaccination record, “Import from photos” reads the numbers on your phone, and you check every value before it is saved. Measurements go into the growth curves (WHO), check-ups and vaccinations into the PDF report for the practice.
What if my phone breaks?
Your entries live on your phone, so naido makes backups: under Settings → Data as a file, encrypted with a password if you like, or automatically into a folder of your choice, such as a cloud folder. A card on the home screen reminds you when the last backup is getting old. With Naido Premium, your paired devices hold the entries too.
What does the Listener do?
The Listener is off until you switch it on under Settings → Listener. Then it uses the microphone while a sleep is being tracked (and, if you choose, in the predicted sleep window before it), notices at night when your child wakes up and suggests the times in the morning. You confirm every suggestion yourself; the listener never ends a sleep on its own. Sound is analysed only on your device and is never stored or sent. The Listener suggests entries; it does not replace anyone looking in on your child.
Can I use naido without forecasts?
Yes, with the “Diary only” mode: a pure log with entries, timer and day review, without forecasts and hints. You choose it during setup or any time under Settings → Mode. In between there is “Without reminders”: forecasts and day plan as usual, but no notification for the sleep window.
How do I cancel Naido Premium, and what happens then?
The subscription runs through Google Play and can be cancelled any time: in the app under Settings → Family & devices → “Manage subscription” (up to version 0.28: under Data), or in the Play Store under Subscriptions. Once the paid period ends, sync between your devices and with the web app pauses. Your entries stay, and the app with forecasts, diary, import and export stays free.
