## What is Best Parents?

Best Parents is a co-parenting app built for separated and divorced parents who want to coordinate without conflict.

Keep everything in one private, secure place — shared only between you and your co-parent.

SHARED CALENDAR  
Schedule custody, activities, school events, and appointments. Both parents stay in sync, with custody approval built in for longer handovers.

EXPENSES 
Log and split child-related costs with configurable ratios. See who owes what at a glance, and mark expenses as settled when paid.

MESSAGING 
A dedicated, private channel for co-parenting communication — separate from personal texts.

CHILD INFO 
Store medical details, allergies, school information, and important contacts for your children in one secure place.

MEDICATION LOG 
Track when medications were given, by whom, and any notes — visible to both parents in real time.

CHECK-INS 
Record drop-offs and pickups with timestamps and location, creating a clear record of handovers.

PARENTING TIME TRACKER 
See a breakdown of parenting time by week, month, and year so both parents stay informed.

Best Parents uses end-to-end security with encrypted child data and private push notifications — your family's information stays between you and your co-parent only.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.5 — 2026-07-11

• Supervised visits and FaceTime calls can now be logged as their own event types
• Custody events can be marked as Suspended when a care arrangement changes
• The dashboard now shows Agreed vs Actual parenting time side by side
• Notes on custody, supervised visit, and FaceTime events are private — only visible to you
• Notes are now timestamped and logged in order, creating an immutable record

### 1.1.4 — 2026-07-05

Fixed an issue where custody handover days didn't display the correct calendar colour when recurring custody events were involved.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-07-01

Bug fixes and improvements:

• Your custody event notes are now private — your co-parent can no longer edit them
• Fixed an issue where editing a calendar event would create a duplicate instead of updating it
• PDF calendar export now shows event details in chronological order
• You can now withdraw your own pending amendment requests

### 1.1.1 — 2026-06-19

More accurate parenting time tracking — your dashboard and PDF reports now correctly account for every occurrence of a recurring schedule, so weekly and fortnightly custody splits add up properly.

Time change requests are easier to send and manage — propose a new time right from the event itself, and withdraw a request you've sent if you change your mind.

PDF reports now include a full details card for every occurrence of a recurring event, with a cleaner Start/End/Duration layout.

Fixed a bug where medication log entries could disappear after reopening the screen, plus a freeze in Messages.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-05-13

Bug fixes
