What 2houses is
2houses helps separated parents coordinate children’s care and manage the practical details of family life. Its shared calendar supports parenting schedules, recurring visits, change requests, events, and imported school terms and holidays, with synchronization to iCal, Google Calendar, Outlook, and other standard calendar apps. Finance tools track expenses, balances, payment invitations, alimony, and spending categories, with reports exportable as CSV or PDF. Parents can message one another, children, or a mediator; messages can be archived or printed, but not deleted. A family information bank stores child-related contact, medical, and document details. Other tools include email and push notifications, photo albums, a family journal, and configurable access for relatives and mediators. One subscription can cover the family, and mediator access can be read-only. It runs on Android, iOS, and the web. The whole-family plan is $8.25 a month, billed $99.00 every 12 months. Its 14-day trial requires credit card details, and charges recur unless canceled before the trial or renewal period ends.
