Very difficult to navigate and make parenting schedules. They ask for bank information which seems weird to me. The messaging is confusing. There are much better apps for co-parenting. They also charge you fees through a third party. Report all you want doesn't make what I said untrue. The app uses a paying system that does charge. My calendar will not transfer to the apps calendar. It's been a couple days and none of the issues are resolved.

It's a good start, but a bit buggy for the price. Please update so that recurring calendar events can be edited individually. It's not possible to reschedule or cancel one instance without changing the entire series. This is a serious problem for people with busy schedules and testy co-parents ;)
