Kidtime is a custody calendar that turns your parenting time into a record you can actually use. Use Kidtime on your own to keep your parenting records, or invite your coparent to coordinate together. WHEN IT'S YOUR WORD AGAINST THEIRS Keep a dated record of handoffs, notes and schedule changes. When you need to show what actually happened — to your attorney, a mediator, or a judge — it's one tap, not a year of screenshots. WHAT'S FREE • Custody calendar for the current month • Unlimited swaps and hand-offs • Notes and photos on any day • Messaging built for co-parents • Expense logging with receipts • Shared file vault for the plan, the order, the school forms WHAT PREMIUM ADDS • Court-ready PDF exports — timestamped: who had the kids, when, and what changed • Attorney access — a secure, view-only link to your records, hidden from your co-parent • Parenting time analytics — scheduled vs actual, by day, month and overnight • The full calendar — every past and future month, not just this one • Holidays and traditions that alternate by year, carried forward for you • Recorded calls — call your co-parent in the app, recorded and transcribed automatically • Tone Meter — scan a message before you send it, and rewrite it if it reads worse than you meant • Search across your notes and message history • Expense analytics BUILT FOR THE SITUATION YOU'RE IN Working with an attorney, heading into mediation, or holding a court-ordered schedule — Kidtime keeps the record you'll be asked for. Start from a standard pattern (50/50, 2-2-3, 2-2-5-5, week-on week-off, every other weekend) or build your own, set the holidays that matter, and it fills the calendar forward. TWO WAYS TO USE IT On your own — your calendar, notes, analytics and exports all work whether or not your co-parent ever signs up. Together — invite them and you share one schedule, one thread, one record. They can join on the free tier, so cost is never the reason they don't. BUILT FOR REAL FAMILIES Multiple children, blended households, alternating holidays, and schedules that don't fit a template. "I built Kidtime as a co-parent, for families like mine. Hearing from other co-parents about how much it has helped them is the reason I keep building it." — Vince, Founder Questions? hello@kidtime.app Terms of Use: https://kidtime.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://kidtime.app/privacy

Stop texting your ex about who owes what for the kids. CoParent Connect gives separated and divorced parents one neutral place to split kid costs — so money fights end and parenting gets easier. Snap a receipt, split it fairly, and settle bank-to-bank, all in one app. HOW IT WORKS • Smart Scan reads any receipt — merchant, total, and items pulled out automatically. • Split it fair: 50/50, custom, or proportional to both incomes, with the math shown. Your co-parent reviews and approves; nothing is final until you both agree. • Settle approved balances directly bank-to-bank. No chasing reimbursements, no "did you get my Venmo?" Log your first expense in under a minute — free. ONE SHARED CUSTODY CALENDAR Both homes see the same live schedule. Request and approve schedule swaps in a tap, with every change logged. RECORDS YOU CAN RELY ON Every expense and approval is timestamped and categorized. Export court-ready PDF and CSV records, each with a verification fingerprint. PRIVATE & SECURE Face ID / Touch ID lock. Smart Scan asks your permission before any receipt is analyzed. Export or delete your data anytime in Settings. Payments run on Stripe's secure infrastructure — we never store your bank details. Free to download. Join in minutes and invite your co-parent when you're ready — or keep your own clean record starting today. Less fighting about money, more time being a parent. Note: bank-to-bank settlement is currently available to families in the United States. Everywhere else, CoParent Connect keeps the shared record — expenses, receipts, calendar, and exports.
