Because Baby Stats is built to be voice centric, we have
built a way to use your voice or text directly in the app
(sorry, due to an Apple limitation voice isn't available on iPhone, but text is.
I am working on other options).
These commands are exactly the same as you would say/text to an assistant,
except without the wakeup word.
Example Phrases:
USAGE:
Add Stat: Tracks a stat at the current time.

For feedings you can optionally track ounces/ml, breast side, or the timing.

When you use Baby Stats you are assigned a unique ID. This is your
username. With all of the privacy issues happening around the world, we have taken
the approach that we will not store ANYTHING private to you. Because of this,
we automatically generate a username (of all numbers) for you. We take your
privacy very seriously and will never be able to market anything to you because of it.
In most cases parents are using Baby Stats because of Alexa, Google Assistant or Cortana,
it's the most efficient way to track stats for your baby. If you are using a voice assistant
say "ask baby stats to get id", and enter that ID value into the mobile app.
If you want to use Baby Stats as a stand alone application. You are welcome to, click the
Generate an ID for me below. If you are using Alexa, Google Assistant or Cortana, it is
recommended to "ask baby stats to get id". You can set the ID on the device but it is
easier to use the ID assigned to you on the voice assistant rather than generating your own.
If you want to share one account with other devices or
other platforms, you can Set the ID of whatever device you are using.
This allows you to track your stats on any device using the same account.
You could track stats on Alexa at home, Google Assistant on the go, or
Cortana if you're browsing the web. You can link all those accounts by:
Step 1: Identify which device is your "master" device, and ask Baby Stats to get ID, for that device.
Step 2: Take that ID and set it on any other device by saying, ask baby stats to set ID {the ID numbers in sequence} (so if the ID was 12345 you'd say "one two three four five")
NOTE: There is a confirmation and easy way to restore the old ID. Don't be afraid of messing it up, it may take a couple tries as you have to speak quickly. If the platform allows for typing that is recommended/easier.
Below is a picture showing you how to share data.

Babies like stats! Baby Stats lets you track stool, wet, feedings, weight,
pumpings, kick counts and sleep. None of them are required, track only what you want.
If you want to hide a stat, click on SETTINGS and select which
stat to hide. You can also edit other configurations on the settings (for example if you
want to use metrics).
If you haven't used our app/skills on Alexa and the Google Assistant, check them out
by clicking on the Home link. Apple just announced Siri Shortcuts so we're looking into
Siri as well.
To get started. Click the + on the bottom right. It will give you the option
of which stat to track. Certain stats allow you to select different information if you want.
Try this: Click +, Feed, Feed. That will track a feeding without any information (Click -, Feed to remove it).
Now Click +, Feed, OZ, and enter the information for the number of ounces.
Here's what you can track for each stat:
Feeding: breast side, OZ, ML, time. Or you can start and stop a feeding timer
Wet: Just tracks a wet diaper
Stool: Just tracks a stool diaper
Sleep: You can track time. Or you can start and stop a sleep time
