For Nara Baby families
Nara Baby went paid. Here’s a free alternative.
In September 2026 Nara Baby — long the go-to free baby tracker — switched to a subscription: a 7-day trial, then $9.99 a month or $99.99 lifetime. After the trial, the app is read-only. If that’s not in the budget (or you just liked it free), TallyTot is free with no ads, and it keeps the features Nara parents relied on.

FAQ
Is Nara Baby still free?
No. Nara Baby moved to a subscription in September 2026: a 7-day trial, then $9.99 a month or $99.99 lifetime. Without a plan the app becomes read-only, though you can export your history as CSV.
What is the best free alternative to Nara Baby?
TallyTot is free with no ads and keeps the things Nara users relied on — nursing by side, pumping by side, bottles, solids, diapers, sleep, growth and partner sync — plus a doctor-visit summary and shareable recaps. Baby Tracker – Newborn Log (Nighp) is another free option, with ads; Huckleberry’s basic tracking is free with sleep features on a subscription.
Can I import my Nara data into TallyTot?
Not yet. Export your CSV from Nara to keep your records, then start TallyTot and answer the “early months” questions — your recap and totals will count from your baby’s birthday.
Does TallyTot work for both parents like Nara?
Yes — free partner sync, and every entry shows who logged it.
