Boobery vs Onoco
Onoco is the closest thing to a British Huckleberry: a shared, cloud-based tracker with AI nap predictions, developmental milestones and unlimited caregivers on one subscription. Boobery is the opposite trade - everything on your phone, working with no signal, bought once. The choice comes down to whether you want a shared cloud or an app that never needs one.
$24.99 once - yours forever, every feature included
Subscription - £8.99/mo or £59.99/yr; the free tier is genuinely usable
Fully - the timer, logging, history and stats never touch the internet
Needs a connection - the shared cloud is what makes it work, so logging depends on being online
None - open the app and start
Required - the account is what powers the shared tracking
On your iPhone - and paired Apple Watch. No server, no cloud copy
In their cloud - which is what makes the caregiver sharing work
Share any feed as a link - no account on either end - but it is one card at a time, not a live shared log
Unlimited caregivers - with per-person access levels, all included in one subscription - the most generous offer in the category
Deliberately none - no algorithm telling you what your baby should do next
AI nap scheduler - personalised nap predictions, on the paid tier
Not our lane - Boobery tracks feeds, not development
A real strength - 460+ milestones across five years, on the EYFS framework, plus a knowledge hub
Included - start, switch and stop from your wrist; nothing gated
On the paid tier - the Watch app is part of Premium
Choose Boobery if…
You want the timer to work in a hospital corridor, a rural cottage or a basement flat - because a feed happens whether or not there is signal. Everything stays on your iPhone, there is no account, and you pay $24.99 once rather than every year for as long as you have a baby.
Choose Onoco if…
Several people look after your baby and you want them all in one live log - Onoco’s unlimited caregivers with per-person access are the most generous sharing in the category, and one subscription covers everyone. Add the milestone tracking and the nap scheduler and it is a genuinely broad product, if you are happy being online for it.
The short version: Onoco is built around a shared cloud; Boobery is built around a phone that works anywhere. Pick the one whose trade-off you can live with at 3am.
Onoco is a product of Onoco Limited. Prices and features checked July 2026 from onoco.com and the UK App Store; things change - check before you buy. This page is written by the maker of Boobery, which is exactly why it tries hard to be fair.
