Almost perfect
The app does flag words that it doesn't deem appropriate, but it seems there are plenty of ways around that by putting little stars or leaving Space between the letters so it's not completely protective of abuse.
Expenses
You should be able to upload more than one photo in the expense section
Worst
This is absolutely the worst coparenting app ever it is advertise as court appointed app, but the courts ignore all harassing messages through this app even when you print them out, screenshot them and present them in court they still ignore them I don’t know if this is just my case and my bias judge because judge Kathleen bubash(spell check) in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. is extremely biased. That she ignores anything that I present and being that this is a court-appointed app I would think that she would take things from here, but yet it is still ignored. This app is a waste of money.

No notifications or sent messages
I’ve been trying to give this app a chance as it was a court ordered thing to use to communicate. First off I don’t get notified when I have a new message so I am constantly having to make sure I stop and check to see if I have any new messages. Secondly whenever I send a message, it completely disappears unless it’s ever replied to, so I’ve got no record of any texts that I send out if they are never responded to.

Yet another redownload. Horrible app!!!
I’m just going to repost an edited review every single time I need to reinstall the app.
I have had to uninstall and redownload the app repeatedly, every few weeks, because it’s so glitchy. Functionality is awful, it crashes often, the UX is hideous and not designed for the end user (the parent who BUYS the product).
I’ve spoken to a representative on multiple occasions, the company DOES NOT care that it crashes all the time.
I’d give it zero stars if I could.

Freezes
The app freezes and disconnects a lot more than it should and for the price of the app.
Glitches
Calendar doesn’t work right and doesn’t save things.
Seriously? This is the most cumbersome way to communicate that I can think of
Maybe I’m missing something. I’ve never used an app that has made life more difficult like this one and not only that but to pay over $150 for it is absurd to me. Sending a simple text message now requires writing an email selecting a person to send it to typing in a subject line typing in a message and sending it and then going back to see a response is shows absolutely no context whatsoever to the messages it’s answering they’ve taken something simple like a text messaging, which is perfected on an iPhone to making it something that is now doubling the effort to do the same thing. The Calendar program it’s also incredibly cumbersome and useless. Unlike an iPhone/Apple calendar. You cannot see any text as what is contained in the actual date. It just represents represented by a simple dot it makes seeing what is coming up on a date very cumbersome . I simply don’t get it - I will go back to court if I have to to insist that we don’t use this app. This is making life even more difficult during a difficult time. I truly hate it.

Far better than TalkingParents
Much better than TalkingParents. More intuitive easier to track and only a single platform. TalkingParents advertises free but isn’t. It’s a pre-30 day trial only..
Worst app for parenting
The quality is unbelievable.
Horrible
Does nothing makes nothing easier very hard for an honest parent dealing with a narcissist
Capitalizing on Trauma
Like every thing else in the family court system, OFW is yet another avenue to cost parents an exorbitant amount of money. What other app costs upwards of $300 a year? Oh and the co-parent is abusive?? So to record the calls where they scream at you? That’ll be an up charge. It’s absolutely asinine what OFW charges for the bare minimum of messaging and some cost and calendar sharing. Disgusting.

Not much works
Very little in the application works. That data bank is essentially useless- you’ll add things and it doesn’t save, you edit an entry and it doesn’t save, etc. if all you need is a messaging app and a calendar this is for you. Your unused minutes DO NOT roll over. It’s nice you can upload expenses but the limitations on the transfers is annoying and we ended up paying expenses outside of the app which is frustrating because this does not make this application a one stop shop like they claim it to be. I just would not recommend. Do some research yourself and advocate for an app you like and not what an attorney advertises to you.

Be prepared for unlimited harassment, abuse, and constant calendar manipulation all for $300/year
This application is nothing more than a predatory system designed to take advantage of the tortured cultural disaster we now find ourselves in throughout the United States. Divorce is difficult enough as it is, but this application makes it ten times worse. Do everything you can to avoid being forced into using this platform.

Parenting app cost money and not user friendly
Be prepared for issues! Couldn’t even line up co parenting accounts and is extremely difficult to add someone new on. Not an easy app to use and for the price you pay quality is bottom tier.
Video & Audio calls
Does not function properly
A useless expensive parasite that injects itself in where gmail and google calendar work just fine
I have put up with this garbage app for years. But now I cannot even type in it. Its “tone analysis” was upgraded to a permanent colouring of text that won’t go away. It is aggravating in what is already a difficult situation. If I state the violations of the divorce that the ex is actually doing, I am harassed by the app to refuse the text. It only accepts changes that are reduced to passivity lies to stop its complaining. And you can’t turn this “feature” off. Now I have to write messages in a different program somewhere else and paste it into this app. Negative 20 stars.

Waste of money, not as expected
This app is very difficult to use. You can’t add events prior to the current date and time to keep a record of events if you forget to add them in advance. There’s no way to add or see contact details.not user friendly at all. There’s no way to preview before you pay the extortionate subscription and it’s impossible to get a refund from apple. Not a happy experience.

More like email
I’m glad this app exists because my spouse was impossible to have a respectful adult conversation with. That being said, it’s not great about always sending notifications. It’s confusing because the organization is similar to email more than texting.
Unsafe - Find Something Else
OFW worked great for a few months and I welcomed the ability to communicate in a recorded way with a high conflict spouse/co-parent. However, OFW recently uncharged my subscription without my authorization and provided no recourse.
Worst of all now it is consistently crashing on Saturday nights when I am trying to video chat with my three year old. I delete and reinstall, turn my phone on and off, confirm all permissions are enabled. Nothing.
This makes the all unsafe if your co-parent is abusive. I need this all to work and it is consistently failing.
Find something else to protect yourself.
