CoParent Circle helps separated and divorced parents run the day-to-day without the friction. One shared calendar, messages that stay civil, expenses split fairly, and a clean record you can hand to an attorney or a judge. Built for real life. Designed for hard days. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Shared custody calendar. Exchanges, school events, activities and holidays, with change requests both parents review and approve. - Messaging with a tone check. An optional check offers a calmer wording before you send something you would regret. - Expenses and reimbursements. Log a shared cost, split it by custody percentage or a fixed share, and settle up without arguing over arithmetic. - Document vault. Report cards, medical records, court orders and receipts, tagged and searchable. - Court-ready reports. Export a tidy PDF of communication, expenses and schedule changes for your attorney, mediator or hearing. - Custody exchanges. Start an exchange and the other parent can see you are en route, so nobody waits in a parking lot wondering. - Voice and video calls. Talk with your child or coordinate with the other parent, with optional recording when both sides consent. - Professional access. Invite an attorney, mediator, GAL or therapist with read-only access scoped to what you choose. - A private circle. Bring in grandparents, step-parents or caregivers only where you want them. A RECORD THAT HOLDS UP Messages, uploads and handovers captured inside the app are sealed when they arrive and timestamped independently. Anything imported from outside is kept in its own clearly labelled section, so a report never blurs the two. PRIVACY - Encrypted in transit and at rest. - Export everything, and delete your account, from inside the app. - Your data is never sold. - The tone check is optional and only looks at the message you are writing. SUBSCRIPTIONS Free to start, with a 14-day trial of Pro. Paid plans raise limits on circle members, storage, court-ready reports, call minutes and AI tone coaching. Subscriptions renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple account settings.
