What age is this app designed for?

It is designed for parents introducing solid foods to babies from about 4 months to 18 months, covering the whole weaning and allergen introduction period. It works for baby-led weaning (BLW), spoon-feeding, or a mix of both.

Does the app work offline?

Yes. Logging foods and reactions, the allergen schedule, the Food Status board and PDF exports all work without an internet connection. Only caregiver sharing and subscription purchases need a connection.

Is this available on Android?

Not yet. The app is available for iPhone on the App Store and needs iOS 18 or later. There is no Android, iPad, Apple Watch or web version yet.

Which allergens does the app track?

You choose a list when you set up the app: the US list of 9 major allergens (including sesame), the EU list of 14, or the Australia/New Zealand list of 12. You can also add custom allergens for anything else your family wants to watch.

Can my partner, nanny or grandparent log meals too?

Yes, with caregiver sharing. Setting it up needs Premium on your phone; receiving is free. Both people need an iPhone and a Google account. Entries are encrypted on the phone and synced through your own Google Drive. Your baby's name, photo and date of birth are never shared.

Does the app store my baby's data on its servers?

No. There are no company servers. Apple's App Store privacy label for Log: Baby Solid Food & Allergy lists a single data type, Purchases, so Premium works. Your food diary lives on your phone. There are no ad trackers, no analytics SDKs and no cookies. If you use caregiver sharing, entries are encrypted on your phone before they reach your own Google Drive.

What happens if I lose my phone?

Your log is stored on your phone, not on our servers, so it stays under your control. Make an encrypted, password-protected backup file in Settings and save it wherever you like, such as iCloud Drive or your computer. Backup reminders can prompt you after a set time or after you've logged a certain amount. On a new phone, install the app and restore the file. Caregiver sharing isn't a backup.

What is the difference between Free and Premium?

Free includes unlimited food and reaction logs with photos, the Timeline, the Food Status board, backups, one child, 2 allergens on the schedule, the first 12 of the First 100 Foods, and sample PDF reports. Premium is a monthly or annual subscription that adds every allergen, full-history PDFs without a watermark, more children, setting up caregiver sharing, and the full First 100 Foods board with milestone cards.

Is this a medical tool?

No. It is a food diary and record-keeping tool. It does not diagnose food allergies, give medical advice, or replace your paediatrician or allergist. If your child is having a severe allergic reaction, call emergency services immediately.

Log: Baby Solid Food & Allergy vs Solid Starts

Food database and introduction guides for baby-led weaning

Solid Starts alternative →

Log: Baby Solid Food & Allergy is the better choice for parents tracking food reactions because its core food diary and reaction log, with severity scoring and symptom types, are completely free — Solid Starts does have a basic food and reaction tracker, but it's a content-library add-on, not a structured system built around severity, timing, and allergen status. For parents who also want a 14-allergen introduction schedule, three types of PDF reports (paediatrician, DO NOT EAT alert sheet, and approved foods sheet), and optional encrypted caregiver sync via your own Google Drive, Premium is an optional monthly or yearly subscription.
