Co-Parenting Harmony for Android
The calm shared calendar for UK families coordinating everyday life across two homes. Custody nights, work shifts, school holidays and handovers in one agreed week — with anything private shown to the other household only as “Busy”.

Screenshots
Captured on a phone screen, using a fictional demo family — no real family’s details are ever shown. These are the same screens the Google Play listing uses.
Our hands-on review
Written by us, the team that makes the app, after building and testing it with a fictional two-home family. It is an honest write-up rather than a customer review — Google Play ratings from real families will appear on the listing itself once it is live.
Setting it up takes about ten minutes
You add the children, pick a custody pattern once, and the nights fill themselves in for the months ahead. Inviting the other household is a single link, and they only ever see the family you invited them to — an iPhone at their end works exactly the same.
The privacy control is the part that changes conversations
Any entry can be marked private. The other household sees a block labelled “Busy” with no title, no place and no detail — enough to plan around, nothing to argue about. That is the difference between this and sharing a Google Calendar.
Proposals do the awkward part for you
Asking to swap a weekend by message invites a debate. Sending a proposal gives one clear question with accept, decline or suggest another time, and whatever is agreed lands in both calendars automatically.
Shift work is treated properly
A shift is its own category rather than an ordinary event, so an NHS, police or retail rota sits beside the custody pattern instead of burying it. Availability then reflects both.
It behaves like an Android app, not a bookmark
It installs from Google Play, keeps you signed in, and sends notifications for invitations, replies and handovers. Adding an entry from a notification takes two taps.
Where it will frustrate you
There is no chat, no calls and no location sharing, which is deliberate but means you still message elsewhere. It is not certified or tamper-proof evidence and it is not a court communication system, so if a solicitor has asked for a monitored record, this is not that tool. And one household has to be willing to use it — no app fixes a co-parent who will not open it.
Verdict
If you coordinate two homes and the friction is diaries rather than disputes, it earns its keep inside the first fortnight — which is free, so you can find out before paying.

What it deliberately does not do
- No chat, calls or location sharing.
- No certified or tamper-proof evidence, and no court communication system. It keeps an everyday record of what you agreed, which is a different thing.
- No legal advice. For that, speak to a solicitor or a mediator.
- No money changes hands: expenses are recorded and split, never paid, in the app.
