2026-07-23	Mu*****	I love that these forms are all easily available however, we could not get ID verification to work, and so could not do the online signing and had to go to a bank to get the forms notarized. The app and scanning system is absolutely terrible. You cannot upload each section one at a time, so if you accidentally hit the back button, you will lose all progress. I had to scan these forms three times because the first two times I tapped the back button accidentally and despite having saved the first three forms, it would not let me upload the last form separately. This is completely nonsensical, these are four separate forms and should be able to be uploaded separately. No one should have to lose all their progress because of a super finicky back button. If they fixed this, I would be highly satisfied with this service. The ID verification was kind of irritating, but this app is infuriating.

2025-12-03	ml*****	I used Mama Bear legal forms for all 4 of my kids when they left home. It gave me peace of mind (and them too) to know that if they were incapacitated, I could speak on their behalf. Their App is super easy to use, and I have the notarized documents stored on my phone if I ever need them. I’ve already used them at the DMV! Amazing!

2025-09-10	Da*****	WHY can’t you scan the documents in separately?! It stopped scanning on the third doc and returned to the home screen, and wanted me to start over! What a horrible app. For shame.

2024-10-11	Je*****	While I love the Mama Bear product - this app is horrible. Once documents are signed, instructions are to separate the 4 different POA and scan them into the app. 4 times - the app glitched while I was uploading the third form. There is no way to upload that section only - the only option is to go back and upload all other sections as well. An absolute, waste of time with no forms uploaded in this app.

2024-08-13	An*****	The website was OK, but I installed the app and try to use it and on multiple attempts. I spent a long time scanning all the documents and then it just said a failure at the end. The only failure is this app.

2022-08-04	He*****	Mama Bear was recommended by loads of parents on the parent page for my son’s college. I was worried the process of obtaining young adult durable POA’s would be complicated, time-consuming. It was exactly the opposite! The website takes you through a questionnaire for the documents you need. The young adult durable POA’s was super fast…under 5 mins for me. Allows you to add a second state for free (I chose home state & state son attends college). You end up with four documents (or two sets for two states): Durable POA for Health Decisions, Durable POA for Financial Decisions, HIPPA, FERPA. Take the documents, signers, and ID to bank or city hall for notary to sign/stamp. Or call a notary and pay them to come to you! Finally, super simple, clean app scans/stores the docs for you and allows you to easily view or forward them via email, text, etc. Also, you can logon to your Mama Bear account online to make any changes/edits to the documents for a duration of time. It’s just really user-friendly…doesn’t try to do too much so it avoids being complicated. Highly recommend!
