What it is

Family Focus is a co-parenting app for separated or divorced parents who need to coordinate and keep shared records. Its family message thread is arranged chronologically and timestamped by the server; once posted, messages cannot be changed or removed. A shared monthly custody calendar supports parent color coding, notes, event updates, and notifications when plans change. Parents can record child-related expenses, divide costs by custom percentages, attach receipt photos, mark items settled, and view a running balance. The app stores PDFs, images, and Word files in Court, Medical, School, or Other categories. Users can export message threads, calendar ranges, expense histories, and document sets as PDFs. Attorneys, mediators, and Attorneys for the Child can receive view-only access, while professionals can follow multiple client families from one account. The app is available on Android and iOS. A free plan is listed, and Family Focus Premium is listed at $7.99 a month; its FAQ separately says the app is free with no subscriptions. The maker says it is a record-keeping tool, not legal advice, and does not guarantee court admissibility.
