# Add a past entry, edit, reopen or delete it

To change an entry, open it on the Timeline, tap the ••• button and choose Edit or Delete Entry. To add one you forgot, tap + on the Timeline.

## Add an entry you forgot

On any form, set the time before you save: tap **Now** next to **When** and pick the time. For a timed kind, switch the form to manual entry first so you can type the start and the length. On nursing, bottle and pumping, tap **Switch to manual entry** at the foot of the form. On sleep, tap the pencil button at the top right (**Enter manually**).

You can also start from the Timeline:

1. On the **Timeline**, go to the day, then tap + (**New entry**) at the top right. Or touch and hold an empty spot on the day at the time it happened.
2. Check the time under **Starts**.
3. Tap the kind of entry, fill in the form and save.

## Edit an entry

1. On the **Timeline**, tap the entry.
2. Tap the ••• button, then **Edit**.
3. Change the times, the details or the note.
4. Tap the checkmark (**Save**).

Your change reaches everyone in the family. **Logged by** still shows who logged it first.

**Tip**

To find a recent entry of one kind, open its form from Home and tap the line under the title that reports the last one. It opens **Entries** with that kind chosen. Tap an entry there to open it.

You can also touch and hold an entry on the Timeline for a menu with **Edit**, **Log Again Now** and **Delete Entry**. **Log Again Now** copies the entry with the time set to now.

## Reopen a timer you saved too early

If you saved a sleep, nursing, pumping or timed bottle a little too soon, you can put it back on the timer.

1. On the **Timeline**, tap the entry.
2. Tap **Reopen** at the top of the sheet.
3. Tap **Reopen** again to confirm. The session is running again for everyone, and you can resume, adjust or save it from its form.

**Reopen** shows for 15 minutes after you save, and only while no other session of that kind is running.

Right after you save a timed session, the message at the bottom of the screen also has a **Reopen** button.

## Delete an entry

1. On the **Timeline**, tap the entry.
2. Tap the ••• button, then **Delete Entry**.
3. Tap **Delete** to confirm.

A deleted entry is removed for everyone in the family.

After you delete, the message **Entry deleted** shows an **Undo** button for a short time. Tap it to bring the entry back.

Right after you log an entry that is not a timed session, such as a diaper or a meal, the message at the bottom of the screen has an **Undo** button too. Tap it, then **Delete**, to remove that entry for everyone.

## Troubleshooting

### I don't see Reopen

More than 15 minutes have passed since the save, the entry was logged by hand with no timer, or another session of the same kind is running. Edit the times instead.

### Cami says the session changed on another device

Someone else in your family changed the same session at the same moment. Check the latest times and try again.
