App summary

TalkingParents is the best co-parenting communication app for families no matter the situation. Parents who are divorced, separated, or were never legally married use the TalkingParents app to communicate regarding their children. Whether your co-parenting relationship is peaceful or high conflict, our co-parenting tools make joint custody easier to navigate, while keeping all communications unalterable.

TalkingParents is the most all-inclusive co-parenting solution on the market today. We are the only shared parenting app that offers messaging, recorded phone and video calls, a shared calendar, and payments in one complete service.

SECURE MESSAGING: co-parents can send timestamped, unalterable messages to each other, allowing them to see when each message was sent or viewed.

ACCOUNTABLE CALLING: co-parents can make recorded video or phone calls, all without disclosing their phone numbers to each other.

SHARED CALENDAR: co-parents can manage custody schedules and coordinate appointments, staying in sync and avoiding conflict.

ACCOUNTABLE PAYMENTS: co-parents can keep track of all shared parenting expenses, easily making payment requests and securely sending or receiving money.

TalkingParents offers the most accessible, straightforward, and user-friendly Records system to co-parents. With TalkingParents, co-parents do not have to contact support or dig for information about obtaining a certified copy of their records for court, as they do with many other co-parenting services.

UNALTERABLE RECORDS is a standalone feature that allows co-parents to request Electronically Certified PDF Records right from within the app or they can request Printed Records from the website. Our Records simplify legal proceedings for attorneys as well, making the evidence gathering process easy and streamlined.

TalkingParents offers a Free, Standard, and Premium Plan, allowing parents of all financial standings to use our co-parenting service. Co-parents looking for affordable, cutting-edge shared parenting tools have come to the right place, as we have already helped over half a million families find support and peace-of-mind. Join the TalkingParents community today so we can help you focus on what matters most—raising your children.

I've missed urgent msgs and calls because the app just randomly signs you out. The other co-parent confirmed the exact same issue. This has been reported to their support staff and they very stupidly asked me to send them a picture of the error. The error is users getting randomly kicked out without notice. The app is intended primarily for communication and not being able to delete msgs. Don't get this app, just don't. $12 a month for security time outs and missed calls/text? Make it make sense

The most recent upgrade is terrible. There is no logical reason to require a "view full message" click. It disrupts the ability to read full conversations. Please undo this completely useless "feature", or at a minimum, make it an option that can be disabled. *edit* yes, it only applies to longer messages. it is still very disruptive to following a conversation. will you please add an option to disable this feature? it is completely unnecessary

Update causing problems in the app. While the app now looks "sleeker" it's just made things worse for me. The call logs show up, but then when you open one, it says it can't generate the transcript, and it won't play the recordings. Those are key reasons for why I'm using the app in the first place! How can you charge more, but stop working at the same time?!
