Baby Docs helps a family keep track of the administrative paperwork that follows a birth in the United States. It generates a personalized list of tasks from the answers you give, shows the deadline attached to each one, lists the documents you will be asked for, and links you to the official government page that handles it.
Baby Docs does not give legal, tax, medical, financial or insurance advice. It is an organizational tool. Nothing in it is a substitute for a lawyer, an accountant, a benefits administrator or your own state's rules.
Baby Docs does not file anything for you. It never submits, transmits or signs a government, tax, insurance or legal form on your behalf, and it never logs in to any account of yours. Every task ends with you going to the official site and doing it yourself.
The deadlines in the app are guidance, not guarantees. They come from federal rules that apply generally. Your own health plan, your own employer and your own state can and do set different ones, and those override anything the app shows. Each task links to the source its rule came from, with the date that source was last read. Check it before you rely on a date, especially where money or coverage depends on it.
Rules change. We update the catalog and record when it was last reviewed (visible in Settings), but there will be periods where a rule in the app is behind the rule in the world.
The app works with no account. If you create one, it belongs to one family, which may contain more than one child. Members with the organizer or parent role can see and change everything in that family. A helper can see it and cannot change it.
Only invite people you intend to give that access to. An invitation works once and expires after 48 hours.
Every task, deadline, document checklist and official link is free for one child. Baby Docs Plus adds further children and the printable one-page summary, and is available either as a one-time purchase or as a subscription.
Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and are managed in your Apple ID settings. A free trial period, where offered, is forfeited if you buy the subscription during the trial. Purchases are handled by Apple; refunds are requested from Apple, not from us.
Baby Docs is provided as is, without warranty of any kind. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss arising from a missed deadline, an out-of-date rule, an incorrect link, or reliance on anything the app displayed. You remain responsible for your own filings.
You can delete your account from Settings at any time, or simply delete the app. We may suspend an account that is used to abuse the service or other people.
