Clinical review

Date of review: June 2021
Version reviewed: 2.0.6
Comments: This app was developed by a university team to help women before, during and after pregnancy with their wellbeing and relationships. It is filled to the brim with content which was developed over three years.
There are various psychological questionnaires which are used to give targeted advice, as well as guided audio activities and other helpful tools for things such as planning. There is also copious helpful information written in a conversational, easy to read style.
My main complaints with the old version have been rectified – the app is now much more polished, and data can be synced to the cloud. Overall, I think this would be an incredibly beneficial app for many women and is a “must have” app for the target audience.
New Zealand relevance: Highly relevant - designed for New Zealand women.

I found the design and interface unpolished and not very intuitive which lets the app down. It would hugely benefit from improvements in this area.
Overall, I think this would be a very beneficial app for many women.
