I’m not sure if this is the best place for this cross-post, nor do I know how many users here occupy the parent+tech-savvy/sysop intersectional space. But for anyone with a child and privacy focused, this webapp made by Rikudou_Sage might be of interest?
Keep in mind, it doesn’t come with any instructions on self-hosting. It seems to leverage the serverless framework, though.
If this post is a bad fit, feel free to remove!
The github repos and the link to the Play Store app (it’s a wrapper) can be found under the original post spoiler section below.

A while ago I made an app for tracking baby activities because I became a parent and was horrified at how many permissions the existing apps required and how much tracking they contained. Both the app and the server are open source.
This is a web-app which also has an Android version in the Play Store (F-Droid didn’t accept it because they don’t feel like web-apps should be welcome in their store). On iPhones it can be installed as a PWA to the home screen.
Features:
- No tracking whatsoever
- End-to-end encrypted, no personal information is stored on the server unencrypted
- Track baby’s feeding, diaper changes, breast pumping and sleeping (more to come)
Links:
- https://baby-journal.app - the PWA itself
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.baby_journal.twa - the Play Store Android wrapper
- https://github.com/RikudouSage/BabyJournalApi - the server source code
- https://github.com/RikudouSage/BabyJournalUi - the PWA source code
Sorry, I don’t have an answer for you. I don’t use this app (not a parent), but I thought it could be useful for those who are!
@[email protected], the dev of the app, should be able to answer that question for you!
