Description

Parents who are divorced, separated, or were never legally married use TalkingParents to manage all communication regarding their children. Whether your co-parenting situation is amicable or high conflict, our cutting-edge tools make joint custody easier to navigate, while keeping interactions saved to a court-admissible Record. TalkingParents is here to help you coordinate more seamlessly, set boundaries, and focus on what matters most: your children. Secure Messaging: Send messages that can’t be edited or deleted and easily organize them by topic. All messages and read receipts are timestamped, allowing you to see when your co-parent sent or viewed a message. Accountable Calling: Make phone and video calls, complete with recordings and transcripts, without ever having to share your phone number. Shared Calendar: Manage custody schedules and your child’s appointments and activities all on a Shared Calendar that both parents can access. Create single events for things like doctor’s appointments and repeating events for your child’s extracurriculars and custody transition days. Accountable Payments: Make payment requests and securely send or receive money, allowing you to keep track of all shared parenting expenses. Requests and payments are timestamped, and you can also schedule monthly recurring payments. Info Library: Share important details about the kids with customizable cards that both parents can access without having to contact each other. This feature is a great place to store frequently used information like clothing sizes, medical information, and more. Personal Journal: Keep private notes about thoughts and interactions you want recorded for later. Whether it’s in-person discussions with your co-parent or child behavior observances, journal entries are just for you and can include up to five attachments. Vault File Storage: Store photos, videos, and important documents. Your Vault cannot be accessed by your co-parent, but you may choose to share files with any third party by copying or emailing a link, which can be set to expire. You can also download files to your device. Unalterable Records: All interactions within TalkingParents are stored to Unalterable Records that are trusted by legal professionals and accepted in courtrooms nationwide. Each Record includes a Digital Signature and unique 16-digit Authentication Code that verifies the Record is genuine and has not been modified in any way. PDF and Printed Records are available for Secure Messaging, Accountable Calling, Shared Calendar, Accountable Payments, Info Library, and Personal Journal. FAQs: Do I have to be on the same plan as my co-parent? No, you can communicate through TalkingParents no matter what plan your co-parent is on. We offer four different plans—Free, Essentials, Enhanced, or Ultimate. (Free users do not have access to the mobile app.) Is TalkingParents court-monitored? No, though Unalterable Records are court-admissible and can be used as evidence in family law cases, no one monitors interactions between you and your co-parent. This is for the privacy of our users. Can I change plans? Yes, TalkingParents offers monthly subscriptions that make it easy to modify your plan at any time. If you don’t think your needs will change throughout the year, we also offer annual plans that include a 16% discount. Can my account be deleted? No, TalkingParents does not allow the deletion of accounts once created and matched. This ensures that neither co-parent can remove an account and clear messages, call records, or other details within the service. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

  • Not entirely free.

    I really wish the app was free to use. In this day and age, it should be. If one doesn’t pay, then the app is worthless and you have to use the program through your web browser and you get notifications via email. Not at all convenient like it’s advertised to be.

    Whenever I receive a message I basically have to close the app and reopen to read it. This shouldn’t be an issue at 12 dollars a month. This garbage charges a service fee to send money on top of the ridiculous fee to have it.

    One of the worst app I’ve ever used in my whole entire life. Doesn’t save my photos or let me open them later. I can’t believe people actually have to pay to use this garbage app.
  • Don’t waste your time.

    To use the app free you have to use it on the web. That means having to sign in every single time via the web and no notifications. The whole point in communicating through an app is to keep track of conversations. Just realized the thread doesn’t even save. All this time we’ve wasted communicating through here and the thread is gone. Apparently you have to pay $55 to email the text record to yourself within a certain time frame before it vanishes. Ridiculous.

  • Terrible and Deceiving

    First of all it’s not free. Second, beware that even if you download to test and see if you like it, you cannot delete the account afterwards. They will keep your information; your partners or the other party’s information and all your records. Do not download this app unless you want to be tracked and have all your data stolen.
  • Trouble accessing records

    By James the parent
    I have been trying to access the PDF of my records everything says it should go through and I never receive the records to my email. They do not provide a phone number for technical support. You could only send them a message. When it comes to child custody, I need this information when they say they will provide it they say they will provide it immediately, and I never receive it
  • Lots of bugs after “big update”

    This used to work great! After the so called big update it’s riddled with issues. App loads extremely slowly. I didn’t get new-message-notifications. When trying to send photos it keeps sending 1 photo 3 times and the others are not sent. No clue why this app was “remodeled” when it was working just fine.. Once you’re a “customer” it’s hard to switch to my family wizard or similar, because the whole message history is already in TP. It’s a pain and a nuisance, obstructing smooth communication to the other parent.
  • Unreliable from day 1

    Can’t even log in. Can’t subscribe. 2 days troubleshooting for hours. I do not recommend. They charge me for the service but won’t give me the service.
  • I like it

    I like it but it always has loading problems! Great place to keep records etc. but it would be nice to be able to get on it once in awhile! Especially since I pay for a subscription.
