## Questions about switching

### Does Plumi predict my baby’s next nap?

Yes. Plumi Pro estimates nap and bedtime windows from age guidance and recent sleep logs. Compare its Sleep Forecast with Baby Daybook’s current sleep tools before choosing.

### Can I attach photos in Plumi?

Yes. Photo attachments are included in Free. Take a photo or choose one from your library. Photos stay on the device that added them and in your own optional backups; they are never uploaded to Plumi servers and do not sync to other devices or caregivers.

### Can Plumi import my Baby Daybook history?

Not currently. You'll need to start a new log in Plumi. Keep an export from Baby Daybook for your records.
