Log potty trips and accidents, and Sprout learns your child's routine. You'll get a heads-up when they may need to go again.
Record what happened with a tap. Sprout uses those logs to estimate when your child may need to go again.
The countdown shows when the next potty trip is likely. As you add more logs, Sprout gets a better read on your child's routine.
Success or accident, pee, poop, or both. It only takes a tap, and you can do it from anywhere in the app.
See success rates, dry streaks, and when accidents tend to happen. That makes it easier to spot the times your child could use an extra try.
Practical guides for night training, regressions, travel, and the other bumps along the way.
Add each child and switch between them without mixing up their logs, predictions, or progress.
Get a reminder before the next likely trip. Set quiet hours when you don't want notifications.
A few quick logs turn into a countdown you can actually use.
Enter their name and birthday, then take a quick readiness check. You don't need to create an account.
Mark a success or accident with one tap. Each entry helps Sprout understand the timing.
See when your child may need to go next and get a reminder before then.
Invite a partner, grandparent, or daycare caregiver to follow progress and add logs. Updates sync through iCloud, so nobody has to trade notes or share a password.
There's no Sprout login to set up or password to remember. The app works with the iCloud account on your device.
Your phone works out the timing behind the countdown. The calculation stays on your device.
Caregivers join through a private iCloud invitation. You can remove their access whenever you like.
Practical, judgment-free guides for the questions every parent ends up googling — from the first readiness signs to dry nights.
Most children show potty training readiness between 18 and 30 months. Learn the readiness signs to look for and why timing matters more than age.
Read the guide →A practical potty training schedule: how often to offer the potty, how to space attempts around meals and naps, and when to stretch the interval.
Read the guide →Accidents after weeks of dry days? Potty training regression is common. Learn the usual triggers and how to get back on track without starting over.
Read the guide →Staying dry at night comes months or years after daytime training. Learn when your child is ready for night training and how to make the switch.
Read the guide →Accidents are part of potty training, not a failure. How to respond in the moment, what patterns to watch for, and how to reduce accidents over time.
Read the guide →What the 3-day potty training method involves, who it works well for, what to expect on each day, and what to do when day three doesn’t end in success.
Read the guide →Most children are ready somewhere between 18 and 30 months, but readiness signs matter more than age. Look for longer dry stretches, interest in the toilet, and the ability to follow simple instructions.
Learn more: When to start potty training →A common starting point is every 60–90 minutes, plus after meals, before naps, and before leaving the house. As you learn your child’s natural rhythm you can time attempts to when they actually need to go.
Learn more: How often should a toddler sit on the potty? →Regression is common and usually temporary. Big changes — a new sibling, starting daycare, illness, or travel — are typical triggers. Stay calm, briefly return to more frequent reminders, and it usually passes within a few weeks.
Learn more: Potty training regression: why it happens and what to do →Night dryness is developmental and often comes months or even years after daytime training. Wait for consistently dry mornings before dropping night diapers — many children aren’t reliably dry at night until age 4 or later, which is normal.
Learn more: Night time potty training: how and when to start →Respond neutrally in the moment — no scolding, no big reaction — and look for the pattern behind the accidents. Most cluster at predictable times, like mid-play or shortly after drinks, and better-timed potty trips prevent most of them.
Learn more: How to handle potty training accidents →It works well for many families: you clear a long weekend, ditch diapers completely, and offer the potty very frequently. It kick-starts training rather than finishing it — expect weeks of follow-through and occasional accidents afterwards.
Learn more: The 3-day potty training method: does it work? →Yes — Sprout is free to download and try on iPhone. Sprout Plus unlocks more features with a subscription.
