What is Vaava?
Vaava is a baby routine tracker designed to help parents log feeding, nappy changes, sleep, and other daily activities. The app uses a timeline-first interface, meaning logged events appear in chronological order as the primary view rather than being buried in menus. You can log activities manually or use voice parsing to record information hands-free, which is useful when managing a baby. The app syncs data locally on your device and includes baby monitor support, allowing you to check on your child without switching apps. It's aimed at new parents who want a straightforward way to track patterns and share information with partners or healthcare providers, without unnecessary complexity.
