What KidsFirst is

KidsFirst is a co-parenting app for separated parents coordinating communication and care for children. Available on iOS and Android in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore, it is free for both parents, includes every feature, and has no paid tier or trial. Both co-parents need the app to use shared features together. Separate message threads can organize topics such as school, health, handovers, and expenses, while a shared calendar, expense tracking, and document and photo storage support coordination. The expense tracker records shared costs but does not process payments or banking transactions. Its AI Conflict Filter rewrites hostile or aggressive messages before delivery and cannot be disabled. Sent messages cannot be edited or deleted, though a full thread can be exported as a timestamped PDF. KidsFirst says data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest with AES-256, and hosted on AWS infrastructure in Australia. The maker says message details are removed before AI processing and that messages are not used to train AI. Its privacy statement notes some providers may store or process data in the United States, Singapore, or the European Union as well as Australia. The maker says it complies with privacy laws in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore.
