The Gaia difference
Why Gaia wins this comparison.
The essentials stay together and included. The app is built around the family record, not an upgrade path.
Gaia includes its own lighter recent-rhythm nap range without Premium.
It is built around one immediate question—what happened with the baby—rather than being a broader early-years planning system.
Each caregiver has a separate login, each entry carries their name, and the current app remains free.
Gaia and Onoco, side by side
The Gaia column is the product we are recommending. The remaining details are here so you can confirm the few tradeoffs that matter before moving your family log.
| Decision | Gaia | Onoco |
|---|---|---|
| Price model | Free; extras are bought with $GAIA | Free tracking and family features; Premium for nap prediction, planner and exports |
| Platforms | iPhone today | Check the current Onoco store listing for device availability |
| Nap timing | Recent-rhythm range included | Onoco AI predictor on Premium |
| Development | Baby milestones and WHO growth | EYFS-based learning journey through age five |
| Best fit | A focused shared baby record | Planning, childcare handovers and longer development tracking |
The choice in plain English.
Choose Gaia for a free, calm iPhone log with separate caregiver accounts, attributed entries, recent patterns and growth kept close to the record.
The main reason to keep considering Onoco is if families who want routines, childcare coordination and a longer early-years development system is non-negotiable. For the everyday family log, Gaia keeps the important parts simpler and included.
Bring the history
Switch without starting over.
If you export your child’s Onoco data as CSV through Premium, Gaia can inspect the dated records and help map them. Always review the preview before saving.
Importing never deletes the original app or changes its copy of your log. Check a few dates and totals, then keep logging in Gaia.
