What 2houses is

2houses helps separated parents coordinate their children’s care and share family information. Its shared calendar supports parenting schedules, recurring visits, schedule-change requests, events, and imported school terms and holidays. Calendar entries can synchronize with iCal, Google Calendar, Outlook, and other standard calendar applications on desktop and mobile.

Finance tools track expenses, balances, payment invitations, alimony, and spending categories. Reports can be exported as CSV or PDF. Parents can message each other, their children, or a mediator; conversations can be archived or printed, but not deleted. A family information bank stores child-related contact, medical, and document information. The service also offers email and push notifications, shared photo albums, a family journal, and configurable access for children and other family members.

One subscription can give access to both parents, children, third parties, and mediators, who can be given read-only access. 2houses is available on Android, iOS, and the web. The whole-family plan costs $8.25 a month, billed 99.00 USD every 12 months. A 14-day trial requires credit card details, and charges recur unless the subscription is canceled before the trial or renewal period ends. 2houses was founded in 2011 and is headquartered in Fleurus, Belgium.
