AppHunt has no promo code for Glow Baby, but we have one for the alternative below.

Best free alternative to Glow Baby: Nightlight

Reviewers say Glow Baby's free version limits how much you can log a day and shows ads, and Glow Premium costs $59.99 a year or $79.99 once. Nightlight, from the AppHunt team, logs feeds, sleep and diapers with no daily cap or ads, shares them with a partner through iCloud, and AppHunt has a promo code that unlocks Premium. With the AppHunt promo code you get the full version of Nightlight for free, for good.

The Glow Baby app costs nothing to install or start with, its listing says, and Glow Premium is the paid upgrade. The listing gives Premium as $59.99 a year after a 7-day free trial, $29.99 for 3 months and $79.99 for a lifetime, and the US In-App Purchases list shows Glow Premium at $15.99, $29.99 and $59.99. US reviews from 2025 and 2026 describe a cap on logs per day in the free version, and ads. These are US App Store prices on November 2, 2026, and they may change.

Is Glow Baby free?

Glow's listing says the app can be downloaded and used without paying, and it costs nothing to install on iPhone, but the listing doesn't say how much the free version lets you log. The picture comes from reviews. US reviewers in 2025 say that without a subscription you get a limited number of logs a day, naming 15 in one review and 32 in another, and that this limit arrived in an app they had used free with an earlier baby. Reviewers also describe ads, including repeated offers for Glow's breast pump, and partner offers during sign-up that ask for an address or insurance details. The Premium perks the listing names, such as comparative insights and private messaging, are mostly written for Glow's other apps.

How much does Glow Baby cost?

The listing describes Glow Premium as $59.99 for a year after a 7-day free trial (about $4.99 a month), $29.99 for 3 months with a trial at $23.99, and $79.99 for a lifetime, and says one subscription works across all Glow apps. The US App Store page lists Glow Premium at $59.99 many times, plus $29.99, $15.99, Glow Premium Lifetime 40% Off at $59.99 and Glow Premium 50% Off at $59.99, without saying which period each covers. Glow's own site offers a 7-day trial, then $59.99 a year. One reviewer says there is no monthly plan and Glow forces an annual purchase; another says they paid about $90 and was asked for insurance details; reviewers who bought the lifetime plan call it worth it, though one still reports the breast pump offer. These are US App Store prices on November 2, 2026, and they may change.

Nightlight or Glow Baby: how they compare

Nightlight, made by the AppHunt team, is a free alternative for the logging itself. It times nursing on each side and records bottles, naps, diapers, pumping, solid foods, growth, fevers and medicine, and keeps its buttons within reach of one thumb for night feeds. The log, the sharing, the timers, the widgets and the spreadsheet export are free for good, with no daily cap, no ads and no tracking. A partner, grandparent or nanny shares the journal through iCloud at no cost, with no account to create. Nightlight Premium adds trends over weeks, a next-nap estimate, a growth history and a printable report for your pediatrician; it costs $29.99 a year, $4.99 a month or $49.99 once, and AppHunt has a promo code at apphunt.app/app/nightlight-premium that unlocks it. Nightlight does less than Glow Baby: its listing mentions no articles, no milestones and no parent community, and its insights are simple trends. It is Apple-only, so everyone sharing needs an iPhone or iPad, it needs iOS 18 or later, and it is new, with no ratings yet against 23,466. Like any log, it is not medical advice.

Is there a Glow Baby promo code?

AppHunt has no promo code for Glow Baby. The US App Store does list purchases named Glow Premium Lifetime 40% Off and Glow Premium 50% Off, which suggests Glow runs in-app discounts, though we haven't verified how they are offered. If the log is what you need, Nightlight is free to use, and AppHunt has a promo code that unlocks its Premium at apphunt.app/app/nightlight-premium.

Does Glow Baby have a free trial?

Yes. The listing and Glow's website describe a 7-day free trial of the $59.99 yearly plan, and the listing mentions a 3-month plan with a trial price of $23.99. If you start one, cancel at least 24 hours before it ends, as the listing advises for auto-renewing subscriptions.

How do I cancel Glow Baby Premium?

If you subscribed through the App Store, open Settings on your iPhone, tap your name, then Subscriptions, choose Glow and cancel before the renewal date; deleting the app doesn't stop the billing. A reviewer from March 2026 says they wished they had cancelled a free trial sooner and ended up with the annual payment. Lifetime purchases have nothing to cancel.

What do reviews of the Glow Baby app say?

Glow Baby has 23,466 ratings averaging 4.7 in the US App Store. Reviews from 2025 and 2026 like the tracking, the growth charts, the widget and the way several caregivers share one profile. The complaints are the daily log limit, no monthly plan, ads and breast pump offers even for paying users, insurance and address requests at sign-up, pop-up insights after each log, and an app that quits while logging.

Is Glow Baby the same as Glow?

They are separate apps from the same company: Glow Baby is for tracking a baby, and Glow, Glow Nurture and Eve cover fertility, pregnancy and periods. One Glow Premium subscription works across all of them.
