What's new in Hive

Care works better when mom is part of the picture, too.

• A private daily check-in for mood, body context, and one line about the day; sharing stays off unless mom chooses it
• A quiet six-question wellbeing reflection after baby arrives, with support resources nearby and no diagnosis or visible score
• Wellbeing is never added to a Visit Summary unless mom explicitly turns that option on
• Theme controls in Profile and careful fixes across nursing, Lock Screen actions, nap syncing, check-in privacy, and navigation

More reliable daily check-in saving, clearer errors, and a keyboard that steps aside when you finish.

More support for the quiet hours of newborn care.

• Rhythm brings sleep, feeds, and diapers into daily and weekly views
• Lock Screen logging, a contraction timer, and notification quiet hours
• A 14-day Visit Summary PDF and private daily check-ins for mom
• Lower battery use in Night Feed and a warmer welcome for new families

An easier handoff, from the latest feed to the next nap.

• Right Now brings the latest care details to the top of Feed
• Nap Live Activities and a dimmer Night Feed nursing screen
• Shared labor updates and caregiver logging with parents’ permission

Our biggest update yet, shaped by real family feedback and newborn nights.

• A warmer new design — softer themes, subtle motion, haptics, and cleaner screens across the app
• Baby Feeding redesigned around nursing, with bottle, solids, and the log close by
• Birth Plan with a structured form and hospital-ready PDF export
• Twin Mode — track each baby separately across every care log
• Vitamins & Meds — medicine, vitamins, dose, timing, and notes in one calm log
• Clearer maps, including birth locations and emergency care for baby
• Feed photo captions and more reliable deletes

A clearer path in, and more ways for the circle to join.

• Sign-up starts with “We're expecting” or “The baby is here”
• New roles: Partner, Family, Friend, Surrogate, and Babysitter
• Invite code shown right away when a mother creates a hive
• Bath Time Log joins feeding, diaper, and sleep
• Smarter screens for baby-here families

Nursing sessions no longer disappear after locking your phone — timers resume correctly.

The hands-full update.

• Nursing timer with LEFT/RIGHT sides, live count, and a last-side hint
• Diaper log with daily totals — from the widget, Lock Screen, or Siri
• Smarter voice logging that stops listening on its own
• “Hey Siri, log it” — feedings, diapers, and sleep hands-free
• Per-appointment reminders, your way
• Home & Lock Screen widgets made easy

A big one.

• Widgets for pregnancy progress, baby's age, and one-tap logging
• Talk to Hive — log feedings, sleep, appointments, and notes by voice
• From bump to baby — a gentle “Have News?” flow marks baby's arrival
• A fresh mauve look with switchable themes and a redesigned logo

The Feed arrives — share photos and milestones to keep family in the loop.

Flexible permissions for family members, member names instead of emails, and visual polish.
