Calendar: a weekend swap waiting for an answer, above the month with each parent’s days

What it does

Messages that cannot be changed after sending.

Keep a topic for each subject, such as school, holidays or health. Once sent, a message cannot be edited or deleted by either parent. Each one shows the time the server received it and when the other parent opened it. Attach photos or PDFs.

The custody schedule.

Enter your parenting plan as a repeating pattern: alternating weeks, 2-2-3, 2-2-5-5, 3-4-4-3, weekdays and weekends, every other weekend, or your own cycle. Each day shows whose parenting time it is, with handovers marked. A change to the plan applies from the day it is made, and earlier days stay as they were.

Requests with the answer on the record.

Ask to swap or change days. The other parent accepts or declines, with an optional reply. Nothing on the calendar moves until a request is accepted, and the request, the answer and both times stay on the record.

Shared expenses.

Add what you spend on the children with a photo of the receipt. Each expense is split by the share you agreed, or one you set for that expense. The parent who was paid marks the other share as settled, and ParentPact keeps the balance each way. Different currencies stay separate. ParentPact records payments; it does not move money.

The children’s details.

School, teacher, doctor, dentist, allergies, medicines, sizes and emergency contacts for each child. An update never replaces the old value: the history shows who changed what, and when.

A PDF of any dates.

The calendar as planned and as it happened, handovers, requests and answers, expenses and their status, every message with its sent and opened times, and the activity log. Every page carries a fingerprint of the document that shows whether two copies match. In English, or Spanish when the app is set to Spanish.

Why it works this way

Sent messages and answers cannot be changed.

Messages, answers to requests and the children’s details are kept as they were saved, with times from the server rather than a phone. Where something can be corrected, such as an open expense or the plan, the change is marked and logged.

One plan for the family, not one per parent.

Either parent can pay, and the plan covers both. Reading the record, making a PDF and downloading your copy never need a plan, so nothing already written is ever locked away.

A record kept by the parents.

ParentPact keeps the dated history so you do not have to piece it together from texts and screenshots. It is not legal advice and does not say what a court will accept.

Pricing

Without an active plan

Both parents can read everything already in the record, make PDFs of any dates and download their own copy.

Questions

Can a message be edited or deleted after it is sent?

No. Once a message is sent, neither parent can edit or delete it. Each message shows the time the server received it and when the other parent opened it.

Do both parents have to pay?

No. One plan covers the whole family, and either parent can buy it. A 60-day trial is offered in the app; it starts only when a parent taps it and needs no card.

What happens if the plan ends?

Everything already in the record stays readable for both parents, and you can still make PDFs and download your copy. Adding new entries needs a plan.

Can our lawyer or mediator see the record?

A parent can invite them as a viewer. A viewer can read the record and make PDFs, but cannot add or answer anything, and a parent can remove them at any time.

Does ParentPact work on iPhone?

No. ParentPact is an Android app, and each parent needs it on their own phone.

Is the PDF accepted by courts?

ParentPact does not say what a court will accept; that depends on the court. The PDF is a dated record of what both parents wrote, with a fingerprint on every page that shows whether two copies match.
