Allergy-specific features
Baby Connect is a general baby activity tracker. You can log that baby ate, but it has no tools for tracking allergic reactions with severity scores, no symptom type picker, no allergen introduction schedule, and no Food Status Board that categorizes foods by safety level. Log: Baby Solid Food & Allergy was built from the ground up for food allergy management: log 10 symptom types, assign severity, attach reaction photos, track allergen introductions with reminders, and see your Food Status Board at a glance.
