Doudou vs Huckleberry
Two baby trackers that both let caregivers share the log for free. They differ in how people join, what costs extra, and how much AI is involved.
Huckleberry and Doudou both log feeds, diapers, sleep and pumping, and both let several caregivers share the same log for free. Where they differ is how people join, what you pay for, and how much the app tries to guide you.
Huckleberry is account-based: to share, each caregiver signs in to the same Huckleberry account on their own device. Its paid plans add SweetSpot nap and bedtime predictions and logging by text, voice or photo (Plus), then Berry, an AI chat, and expert-designed sleep plans (Premium). The app is in English.
Doudou has no accounts at all. One phone creates a family and gets a short code; the others join with it, up to 10 phones. Logging, sharing, WHO growth charts and a 7- or 30-day report for the pediatrician are free, with ads. Premium removes the ads and adds nap windows from your baby's age and last logged wake-up. No AI reads the log, and family data sits on a server in the EU.
Pick Huckleberry if sleep is the hard part and you want predictions and coaching. Pick Doudou if the hard part is getting everyone, from your partner to the grandparents and the nanny, to log in the same place.
