ParenThing

Co-parenting, made easier. ParenThing gives separated parents one calm, private place to coordinate, so the everyday details stop turning into arguments. Both of you see the same information, so there is nothing to forward, screenshot or argue about. MESSAGES THAT STAY CALM Tone-checking reads a message before it sends and quietly flags anything likely to land badly. You stay in control, you just get a moment to think. A SHARED CALENDAR YOU CAN BOTH RELY ON Plan the week and agree handovers in one place. Check in at handover so you both have a clear, shared record of where and when it happened. MONEY WITHOUT THE FRICTION Log expenses, attach receipts and keep child maintenance clear. Approvals are tracked, so you can both see what has been agreed. DOCUMENTS, SAFELY SHARED School letters, medical notes and receipts kept together and approved, rather than scattered across two phones. TASKS AND PACKING LISTS Agree who is doing what, and send your child between homes with everything they need. YOUR CHILD AT THE CENTRE Gentle wellbeing check-ins help you notice how your child is doing over time, not just on the hard days. ROOM FOR EVERYONE WHO HELPS Children and wider family can be given their own limited view. Mediators, solicitors and family support workers can be given scoped, consent-based access when you choose. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your family's information stays inside your family. Access is scoped by role, so people see only what you have given them. Made in Ireland, for separated parents everywhere.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ontick at none against ParenThing's 2. ParenThing's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
