The bar at the bottom, button by button

Explained6 stepsUpdated 23 October 2026

The bar is the whole navigation. It stays at the bottom of Home, the baby screen and the guides. Slide it to see its second side.

Short answer

From left to right: the calendar opens Week, the middle opens today, the + logs a moment, and the last square opens Baby. On the baby screen, that square becomes Settings. Slide the bar to the left for Guides and Ask.

Veilleuse is for iPhone.

From left to right

Veilleuse Home: the baby's name at the top, four circles with the time since the last feed, nappy, sleep and pump, then the Sleep and Feed cards. The bar at the bottom has the calendar, Today, the + and the baby button.

Home. The bar at the bottom stays on every screen.

  1. The calendar square: opens Week, with every day of the week.
  2. The middle: it says Today, with your newest entry of today and its time. Tap it to come back to Home. With nothing logged today, it says Nothing logged yet
  3. The round + button: Log a moment. It opens the page where you say or type what happened.
  4. The last square: opens Baby, your baby’s page.

The second side

The bar has a second side. Put your finger on the bar and slide it to the left.

  1. Guides, in place of the calendar: opens the guides in the app. See Read the guides in the app.
  2. Ask, in the middle: About babies. It opens Claire. See Ask Claire about babies.

The + and the last square stay in their place. Slide the bar to the right to come back. The bar always opens on its first side.

Where Settings is

Tap Baby first. On the baby screen, the last square of the bar becomes Settings, with a gear. Tap it.

While something runs

When a sleep, a feed or pumping runs, the middle of the bar shows it: Asleep, Feeding or Pumping, with the time so far. At its start, the small round icon becomes a stop button in the same colour. Tap it to stop.

The + stays the same. You can still log something else while a timer runs.

The small locks

On the Free plan, the calendar square, the + and Ask wear a small lock. They are part of the Family plan. A tap opens the plans screen. To log by hand, use the + on the Home cards: it is free. See What is free, and what the Family plan adds.
