Observation Log and Potty Alarm for Potty Training or Elimination Communication
Whether you are potty training your toddler or doing elimination communication (EC or infant potty training) with your 0-18 month baby, you need this app!
Observation time is key for knowing your little one’s natural timing intervals (how often s/he goes potty) and keeping track of any baby signals (or “peepee dances”) you see.
But forget that printable log you got from my website! You can now digitally track how often your baby pees or poops during observation time, or potty training, with ease.
If you’ve wondered:
“How often does my baby pee or poop?”
“When should I offer the potty to my little one?”
“If I want to set a potty time reminder on my phone, how long should I set it for?”
…The Log is your answer.
No more paper printouts and chicken-scratch logging, no more guessing “how often does my little actually pee or poop?”…now you can simply open the app and, starting at either waking or feeding, track how often your baby or toddler goes. Then download a PDF of your results.
*You can also take a note of your little one’s signals or other observations by long-pressing the activity button, as you go.
After starting potty training, or if you’re doing EC…after a few hours of observation time (or a few days if you’re really inquisitive)…visit the Reports screen to easily see your baby’s intervals in graph or written format.
Set a potty time alarm based on your baby’s actual timing intervals, so your smart phone can remind you throughout the day when to offer a “pottytunity” - or chance to go potty.
If you have a toddler you’re potty training or wrapping up EC with, you can use this app to set an alarm based on your observations - welcome to your new potty training alarm app!
Track one or more babies, keep the logs separate, and easily re-set the data to start a new observation sesh any time (I recommend you re-log your child’s rhythms every few months or so to keep it fresh!).
Stop over-offering and second-guessing yourself…and become a potty pro (or at least better than you were last week!) with this app.
Developed by me, Andrea Olson, author of Go Diaper Free and The Tiny Potty Training Book, whose 5 children were all out of diapers by walking, none requiring potty trained…a mom who has hardly had to change a poopy diaper and has saved over $10,000 in diapers across their babyhoods…you’re in good hands when it comes to observing your baby for elimination communication. Learn more at godiaperfree.com or via the app, itself.
PS - if you’re stinking at potty training, learn more with the free classes inside the app. If you don’t know what EC is, it’s the natural alternative to diaper dependence and potty training, and it starts as early as birth to 18 months. It’s what people have done for all of human history, long before diapers were invented. We also have a free class and books on that.

Seriously ladies, please stop leaving feature suggestions as negative reviews! 🙅 If you want to see something added, just write it without removing stars or email the developer. Google Play Store reviews are super important, so please keep that in mind if this app is useful to you. Simple but brilliant! I was really intimidated by starting EC but this is an awesome tool. Suggestion: I also have the book & mini courses and it would be cool if I could view that content in the app!
the timer part is broken. everything else works fine. I am using this because my 4 year has been having accidents when she has to pee and I wanted to track when the last time she peed was. I love how it's just a simple button press to signify pee or poop. It would be nice for those with younger babies to have a button to press when. hold falls asleep, though.
Friendly user interface, but I wish there was a way to sync or share data between phones. My partner signed into my account on their phone and the app is blank (no child, no log data). It seems like the data might be stored on the specific phone rather than a cloud. If you're sharing duties (doodies ha), it means you always have to track down the main account holder's phone. It also means that if the main account holder has to leave the house and needs their phone, the app is no longer as useful. They were quick to address other comments, so hopefully this is in the works!
I like how the app keeps track of the pee and poo. It can be modified. However, the alarm is a deal breaker for me. It needs: -It would be nicer if I can type the time in instead of using arrows. Also, where are the seconds? -Alarm needs a countdown so I can know if I have time to start a task. -The deal breaker for me was the fact that there was no sound for the alarm and no option to pick one!!! Also, I wanted a button for my toddler to press to stop the timer for interaction.
Glitchy App.. When you try to edit an existing entry (even just adding remarks) it automatically edits the time to the current time if older than last shift from AM to PM. Freezes trying to change the photo of my child. This has happened 3 or 4 times now. Lost 1 to 2 days worth of pee/poop entries. I even tried saving a "backup copy" this last time, but since the App will not reopen (just stalls on "Loading..." I've needed to uninstall, reinstall and now it appears the backup is gone too.
