How Pumpe Works
A quiet pumping companion, from download to daily rhythm
Get started in minutes
Pumpe is built for the rhythm of exclusive pumping — and for parents who pump alongside nursing. From your first session to a routine that runs on its own, Pumpe records the details so you can stay focused on supply, on sleep, on baby. No accounts, no cloud, no internet connection — just a calm log that's always by your side.
Getting started with Pumpe
1. Download Pumpe from the App Store
Pumpe is a one-time purchase. No subscription, no ads, no accounts — pay once and use it for as long as you pump.
2. Start your first session with one tap
Open the app and tap to begin. The timer starts immediately, ready for you to record left, right, or double pumping.
3. Enter the volume when you're done
Stop the timer and log how much you expressed. Pumpe records duration, side, and volume in one session entry.
4. Watch your patterns and supply trends
Daily totals, weekly averages, and visual trends appear as your log grows. Pumpe shows you when you produce the most.
5. Add the Lock Screen widget for quick logging
Place the widget on your Lock Screen or home screen to see the time since your last session — and start the next one without unlocking.
