A co-parenting app with audio and video calls

Call the other parent, book calls with the children, and keep a plain record of every call, without the call itself ever being recorded.

Audio and video calls now sit inside the ParenThing phone app, alongside your messages, the shared calendar and shared costs. For separated parents in Ireland, the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

Call the other parent by audio or video from inside ParenThing. Their phone gets a call notification, and you can talk things through without leaving the app you already use for messages, the calendar and costs.

Book a call with the children as a one-off, or set it to repeat, for example every Wednesday evening. A child's call rings the phone of the parent the child is with, who hands the phone over. Children do not need a phone of their own.

Each call leaves a plain entry in your family's record: who called, when, how long the call lasted, and whether it was answered. That entry appears in reports and in the evidence pack.

Calls are not recorded or transcribed. The record shows that a call happened, not what was said.

If a call goes badly, you can report it, as you can a message. A professional you connect, such as a mediator, solicitor or family support worker, sees calls only through a Calls permission that both parents approve.

One Premium plan covers the whole family, so both parents share the minutes rather than paying twice. Calls work in the ParenThing phone app on Android and iPhone. They are not available on the web app at app.parenthing.ie.
