My Family Wizard app?

Hello,

i am hoping to find an app to facilitate co-parenting. I’ve looked at a few options. My number one requirement is that, once dates are input into a calendar and agreed, they can’t be changed on the calendar/app without the other parties being notified. I am struggling to find out whether this functionality is available - does anyone know?

Thank you.

Yes, OFW notifies the other parent if the calendar is changed. The other parent can delete the entire calendar though. I used to print the calendar to pdf so I always had a copy of it.

I didn't love the app. It's not very intuitive.

I didn’t like the app either, often you won’t get notifications.
also, the text chat isn’t like a thread you can look back on.. every time you send a new message, it starts a new thread. Expensive for poor performance in my opinion

Thanks so much for the replies far, really helpful. I appreciate there May be other issues I’d not thought of. Out of interest, are there any apps you’d recommend? I am slightly tempted by the fact that courts recognise activity on MFW but am open to finding the right thing.

No, sorry. I went with OFW as I think it was most expensive so stupidly assumed the best one.
maybe trial and error a couple of free ones with a friend or family member before taking the plunge on one with your ex?

Also, if the other parent decides not to pay their subscription, you end up just talking to the void. A bit like being married really.

App close is free. You are better off not using the shared calendar and turn it off. Arrange dates and send the agreed calendar as a PDF on the chat so it can’t be altered.

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the input. I think I need an option where I can evidence changes for a while - hopefully not in the long term but just for now.
