About Custody Journal
Custody Journal is a single-parent custody evidence journal. Document custody exchanges, log your child's wellbeing after every visit, archive communications with the other parent, track child-related expenses, and generate a court-ready PDF evidence package. WORKS WITHOUT YOUR EX Unlike most co-parenting apps, Custody Journal does not require the other parent to install anything. This is your private documentation tool. No account, no cloud, no invites. CORE FEATURES (FREE) - Custody exchange logging: drop-off or pick-up, scheduled and actual time, status (on time, late, no-show, cancelled, rescheduled, denied), location, and notes. - Exchange list and monthly calendar with color-coded status. - Parenting time calculator that estimates your overnight share each month. - Configurable exchange reminder notifications (30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours before). - Child mood tracking with nine subtle mood options. - Basic exchange summary for the last 6 months, including on-time, late, and no-show counts. - Face ID and Touch ID app lock with immediate lock on backgrounding. - Up to 20 exchanges per calendar month on the free plan. - One child profile on the free plan. CUSTODY JOURNAL PRO Pro unlocks the features that turn your records into evidence: - Child Wellbeing Journal. Log mood, behavior, health, sleep, appetite, and your child's own words after every visit, with severity flags for routine, concern, or urgent observations. - Child's Own Words. A dedicated field for exact quotes plus a separate context field, formatted the way family courts expect. - Communication Archive. Structured log of texts, emails, calls, voicemails, and in-person conversations with the other parent, including whether they responded. - Expense Tracker. Categorized child-related expenses with receipt photos and reimbursement tracking. - Advanced Evidence Insights. Compare custom time ranges, review every exchange outcome, and analyze communication response patterns. - Court-Ready PDF Evidence Package. A ten-section report including an executive summary, exchange log, violations table, parenting time calculation, wellbeing entries, Child's Own Words section, communication log, expenses, and a photo appendix. - GPS verification on exchanges (requested only when you save, never in the background). - Home Screen widget showing your next exchange countdown and this month's statistics. - CSV export of every record type. - Unlimited children and unlimited exchanges per month. PRIVACY IS THE PRODUCT Everything stays on your device. No analytics. No tracking. No third-party SDKs. Location, camera, and photo access are used only when you explicitly take an action that needs them. SUBSCRIPTION OPTIONS Free plan includes 1 child, up to 20 exchanges per month, basic notes (no photos), calendar view, parenting time calculator, and a basic 6-month exchange summary. Custody Journal Pro unlocks the full feature set above. Pricing: Monthly 3.99 USD, Annual 29.99 USD. The Annual plan includes a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers; the Monthly plan is charged immediately. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically within 24 hours before each period ends unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours prior. You can manage or cancel in Settings, Apple ID, Subscriptions.

What’s new
Version 1.2 · Updated August 24, 2026
- Child switching is now clearer for families tracking multiple children, with Home, Exchanges, Journal, and Evidence updating together; single-child details remain visible on Home without repeating across tabs or entry forms. - Evidence CSV exports now use clearer local dates, shorter record references, and cleaner GPS coordinates. - Overnight estimates now stop at the current/report date, exclude future exchanges, and identify gaps in earlier exchange history. - The Pro Home Screen widget now refreshes more reliably, shows the correct child, and opens Exchanges with one tap.
