There’s a relatively new co-parenting tool available for any families—married, partnered, divorced, separated, or mixed—to help keep track of all things parenting: AppClose was developed in 2016 and has quickly gained speed as one of the most useful co-parenting tools available.

Here are some of the things we like about it:

• It has a FREE version

• The free version includes the ability to download/export full, unaltered message threads, financial request histories, and the like—a feature many other co-parenting apps do not offer

• The messages are timestamped when sent, received, and read

• It includes shared calendars

• It includes secure messaging

• It has a separate function for making requests, such as changing drop-off times or locations

• It has a separate function for requesting expense reimbursements—no more scanning through hundreds of text messages to find the exact ones about finances

• It has a ‘circle’ function for creating groups of people, so all your interrelated family members and caretakers can be involved where they are needed

• Secure storage means private information is protected

• It works even if only one parent is using it; messages and requests can be sent to non-user third parties

• It has a scan and send function right in the app for times when you need to include documents in your messages or requests

Sound like a good fit? Download it in the Apple App Store or Google Play.
