“This is a great idea to help keep track of everything. I just wish the calendars were more modifiable so I can put in overlapping schedules. Not one standard schedule fits my parenting plan of alternating weekends AND daily visitations. I have to do multiple templates which is time consuming.”
“Great app, but my kids have different mothers and I wish there was a way to add both of them instead of having to change that info each time. The app assumes if you have 2 children it's with 1 other person.”
“Great help, but still learning as the program improves. I have even been asked for input which, really surprised me!!!
I love it but it still needs improvement, as all programs do. Please keep it up with employees, to keep up with your increasing demand!!!!!

“The graphical representation of time is so essential to understanding parenting time. It helps the parents and child. It can even help a judge to see issues. This is an essential tool for families that have complicated schedules (2-2-3 etc) combined with vacation schedules and additional variations. The only loss of a star was because of the silly dark-colored bar running through the dates. I have recommended the ability to turn that off or remove it, but that request has been continuously dismissed. Otherwise, Custody X Change is an excellent tool.”
“I like the scheduling tool for CustodyXChange once you get to know how to use it. It is a little bit nuanced but now that I am familiar with it, it makes creating new calendars, schedules and tracking changes to schedules a breeze. As the custodial parent, I appreciate being able to solely control the calendar. I just learned how to sync it with my Google calendar and that has been a game changer. The expense tracker is straightforward too.”
“I’ve been a customer for about four years. My interest is almost exclusively in the scheduling and summary calculations. Early on, the scheduling was buggy and the UI would produce unpredictable results. Since then, it seems the dev team has continued to fix the tool and add features. As I update my schedule (once or twice a year), it’s been much smoother.
I found that the court was very appreciative of the clear schedule proposal and summary. If you are in a position needing to manage a custody agreement (or court action), I’d recommend spending a few hours to invest in building the schedule here. Print hard copies and put it on the fridge to record changes and bring them back into the tool later if you need it updated there for refreshed calculations.”
“I love the specificity of the platform and being able to keep track of communication and expenses.
My one problem with it is that the app is not accessible through apple store, and therefore Apple phone owners, such as my coparent, can't download and has to use the web instead. Hopefully this can be fixed.”
“Custody X Change has been a huge asset to co-parenting, especially in a difficult situation. It is easy to use, helps keep documentation all in one place.”
“This is a very good tool if both parents agree. It has thought of everything you may not think about during the course of a heated custody battle. It is also a good tool if you are pro se and are presenting the plan as a means to show that YOU are trying to be fair and amicable. I would have given it 5 stars. I have not tested it in court as of yet.”
“The product works fine; however, it offers a lot of bells/whistles that we don't need. The calendaring function is great and the primary reason I initially downloaded the software in 2017. Approximately 2y ago, they switched to a paid subscription use only which was quite disappointing. I am stuck paying a lot for the calendar feature only.”
“It has been so nice to have a shared calendar that I can use with my ex. We simply added our information from our decree and it does everything for us. I enjoy being able to pull up our schedules for the far future. It has really helped with future planning with vacations, holiday plans, etc.”
“Custody x change helped me set expectations for what a custody agreement should look like. It was hard for me to get my ex to really utilize it to its full potential, but the calendar aspect has been helpful.”
