Communicating through a horrible situation

I am in love with this app! It has allowed me to gain an immense amount of serenity! It has stopped a ton of unnecessary calls and text messages day and night! Thank you so much!!!! My daughter and I really appreciate it.

Need additional co-parents

I am really enjoying the app. It’s easy to understand and functions well. My only problem is, as with most blended families, there are more than 2 parents in our family. We need the ability to be able to add step parents to the conversation.

Great tracking of conversations

Even though my ex ignores all of my messages about our daughter, I have everything I need if we ever go to court again.

Good concept but buggy

I routinely hear and see notifications for new messages but when I open the app, I cannot find them. Just now I went on my computer and found messages from two hours ago that were not appearing in the app as well as a whole new conversation. I killed the app and restarted and they appeared.

App

Poor operation, first you can’t login till the other parent does? Second the first two days I had to follow three links to the website and then log in to read each message and reply. Third, all this app does is make everything more complicated. But what do I know I’m just a father and a man living in a females world.

Can't even start an account

App crashes or says "error" when I'm trying to start an account. I tried twice. Not a good intro. I'm moving on.

---

Great user interface

It works really well and has a great user friendly interface. Makes all the right sounds and feels like a regular messaging app.

---

Stopped showing notifications on the app.

Works great I pay every month to be able to print (PDFs) of everything said for court....but no notifications anymore - my ex too....weird

---

Cost?

Why does it cost on the app when the website is free?

Communication improvement

It's unfortunate to need an app to co-parent, but in the first month of use I have seen a big improvement in communication. It's amazing what people don't say when they think it will be used in court. The calendar option is nice, but I can't add reoccuring events like phone calls or soccer practice etc. Trips that last more than one day are also difficult to add. I decided to pay for the app usage although I can understand some of the complaints about paying for one more thing. $50 a year for this app gives peace of mind and nowhere compares to my legal fees. OUCH! I use it on Android and Apple devices.
