CoParent Calendar is a co-parenting organisation app for families living across two homes. It brings the custody calendar, parenting time calculations, messaging, expenses, child records and planning tools into one shared space so both parents work from the same information. It runs in a browser and through dedicated iPhone and Android apps, so a schedule check or an update works wherever you happen to be.

What you get

  • AI schedule builder
  • Custody schedule builder
  • Same day exchanges for short handovers
  • Court friendly documents you can print
  • Shared colour coded calendar

+ 12 more features

Pros

  • AI schedule builder sets up a full routine in minutes
  • Court friendly documents you can print when you need a paper record
  • Same day exchanges cover short few hour handovers, not just overnights

Cons

  • Some of the most useful tools sit behind the Plus plan
  • AI suggestions should support your judgement, not replace it or professional advice
  • Families needing specialist legal evidence workflows may still want a more court focused product
