About

SplitWeeks

Features
Read full description

Two homes. One clear week. SplitWeeks connects your custody schedule with the details that make the next handoff easier: child activities, pickup responsibility, packing, reference photos and a reviewed PDF packet. PLAN THE WEEK Choose a repeating pattern: 2-2-3, 2-2-5-5, alternating weeks, alternating weekends or a custom cycle. Follow the seven-day home route, add recurring activities and see who handles pickup and what to bring. Keep important dates, day swaps, longer exceptions and the monthly calendar together. PREPARE THE HANDOFF Save the time, meeting place and selected children. Reuse a travel kit with individual reference photos and care notes. Track packing separately from receipt, keep preparation history and use standard or custom checklists. REVIEW A CHANGE Propose a schedule change, compare affected days and transfers, and review activity warnings before recording a response. A pending proposal does not silently change the plan. Manually recorded responses are clearly labeled. KEEP A REVIEWED COPY Choose the fields for a week packet, read the complete PDF and save a snapshot that keeps its original values when the live plan changes. Private notes stay out unless selected. Medical fields can be selected only for private packets; iCloud workspaces exclude them. Share the PDF through your chosen destination. Keep expense CSVs, calendar exports, monthly reports and your own backup file. INVITE BY CHOICE Copy selected records into a separate private iCloud workspace. Invite another parent or trusted person with read-only or editing access. Each participant needs their own Pro purchase or eligible Apple Family Sharing access; eligible family members do not need another purchase. Family Sharing does not automatically share records. An iCloud account and internet connection are required. Membership and privacy controls remain available without Pro. Removing access cannot recall downloaded or exported copies. THE USEFUL DETAILS Child cards keep sizes, school and care information close. The shared-expense ledger records adjustable splits, repayments and the balance. Parenting-time summaries, handoff reminders and private widgets support the plan. Widgets show the home and next transfer without child names, notes or expense amounts. FREE AND PRO Free includes one custody plan, this month and its standard handoff checklists. Existing records remain available. Pro adds activities, new planning records, travel kits, saved packets, shared workspaces, additional months, custom templates, reminders, exports and insights. Monthly, Yearly and one-time Lifetime options are available. See a complete fictional PDF example on the paywall before choosing. PRIVACY AND SUPPORT Your private collection stays on this device unless you export it or choose records for sharing. Optional support sends the details you enter and the disclosed diagnostics. Voluntary platform feedback can be declined, and a vote can be removed without Pro. No advertising tracking. SplitWeeks is an organization tool. It does not provide legal, medical or financial advice or create a custody agreement. SUBSCRIPTIONS Apple displays your localized price and billing period before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in Apple Account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid period. Eligible introductory periods return to the recurring price shown before purchase. Lifetime does not renew. Restore Purchases retrieves eligible existing access.
