AppClose: Co-Parent Essentials users say on Google Play
Not really 5 stars. This app has become a SELLOUT! I’ve used AppClose for years because it’s required for court-ordered co-parenting and safety communication — it is NOT optional for me. Now they lock you out unless you pay $9.73 ($8.99 + tax). Support refuses to explain how this benefits users and says court-mandated use does NOT qualify for a waiver. Their solution? “Go back to court,or pay” as if that’s always realistic. Extremely disappointing and disgusting behavior.
I'm quite frustrated with the app as I have reached out to support several times with no response. I have proof that I have an active subscription as well as a transaction history and it's the same email used for everything. yet every time I try to message my kids dad it tells me I need to subscribe. I rely on this app not only for court but for my own safety and now that I can't use it I have no clue what to do.
When we where ordered to use this application we where told there wouldn't be any changes. Now we have a block on our accounts because of new changes. I can't afford any changes no matter how insignificant it may seem to you organization. This seems the only way we can communicate as parents with one another.
Gutted this has now changed to another paid service. All I need is an app where neither parent can delete messages they have sent. Parts of the app (paying for things) don't even work in the UK. I can't justify the monthly cost for the sake of a few messages a month and maybe a different app where you only pay for what you want is better. The calendar isn't suitable for what I need and you have to go in to each date to see what it says unlike your phone calendar that gives at least a preview.
This app is horrible. There is no notifcation category. It is not thread-based. The search is across all conversations. You cannot bookmark/star/favorite something said. It was marketed as free and now costs money. Like a hundred a year so you can use the worst version of email in the world. The calendar does not integrate into ANYTHING and does not show to the other party and has no customization. Email is a way better option. The last thing you need when dealing with a mess is a horrible app.
