Version 1.0.9 — the update where Milk Monster learned to listen. Everything for tonight's test, tomorrow's shoot, and the ask to Apple, in order.
“Hey Siri, log 4 ounces of formula in Milk Monster.”
Logged 4 ounces of formula for Isabella.
No unlocking. No tapping. Both hands on the baby. Synced to the whole family before the bottle’s down. No other baby app can do this.
Both phones on the TestFlight build. Tap each item as it passes — the page remembers.
This test has been waiting for a two-phone night since July 13. Listen for Siri saying the baby’s name on every log — it’s your audible check that the right family got it.
Erick presses Send for review in App Store Connect — nobody else, nothing automatic. Paste this into “What’s New” when you do:
Log without touching your phone. Say "Hey Siri, log 4 ounces of formula in Milk Monster" — or a diaper, or a bottle of breast milk — and it's saved and synced to your whole family before you've set the bottle down. Built for the 3am one-handed moments. • Bottles by voice: breast milk or formula, ounces or milliliters, all in one sentence • Diapers by voice: "Log a dirty diaper in Milk Monster" • Not sure of the amount? Say "Log a bottle in Milk Monster" and Siri will ask • Works from the lock screen — no unlocking, no app switching • Every voice log appears instantly on your partner's phone Siri logging requires iOS 17 or later. Everything else works just as before.
Same session, same setup. The first follows Apple’s rules; the second is the one that travels.
Capture the iPhone screen with QuickTime: cable in → New Movie Recording → choose the iPhone. App Previews autoplay muted, so caption every beat.
The founder-story version. Shoot over-shoulder if you’d rather keep Isabella’s face off socials.
Edit in Palmier — cut a 15s version for Reels/TikTok (#MyLittleMilkMonster) and a 40s version for Product Hunt and press. The same footage feeds the App Store page, the featuring nomination, the outreach emails, and the homepage.
App Store Connect → Apps → Milk Monster → Featuring Nominations. File it the day 1.0.9 is approved — Apple likes 2–3 weeks of lead time, and this is exactly the kind of adoption story they feature: their newest framework, used first in a category, for a reason a human can feel.
What's new: Milk Monster is now the first baby tracker with true hands-free logging through App Intents. Parents can say "Hey Siri, log 4 ounces of formula in Milk Monster" or "log a dirty diaper in Milk Monster" from a locked phone — one utterance, including the amount — and the entry syncs in real time to every caregiver in the family. Why it matters: every parent knows the 3am problem — one hand holding the baby, the other holding the bottle, and no way to log the feed. Our founder built this feature the week he brought his daughter home from the hospital, for exactly that moment. Competing apps offer legacy donated shortcuts at best; none accept a spoken amount in the trigger phrase. Apple technologies: App Intents (App Intents extension, iOS 17), parameterized App Shortcuts with spoken values, Live Activities (sleep timer), WidgetKit, SwiftUI. The voice path runs entirely in an extension — no app launch, instant response. Suggested fit: New Apps We Love · Apps for New Parents · Siri and Shortcuts collections.
They may ask for assets: app icon, two or three screenshots of the Siri exchange, the App Preview video, and a short founder bio — tomorrow’s shoot covers all of it.
