How the Packing List, Lists and To-Dos Work

Packing List – Your Helper for Transitions

In the Packing List, you add what your child needs to bring at each transition between homes — the tablet, soccer shin guards, the riding helmet, and other must-haves.

Before the handover, you or your child check off each item as it’s packed, and your co-parent gets an instant notification that it’s ready. No more reminding or nagging about the stuff. And if something is left unchecked, the app reminds you there are still items to pack.

The list is generated fresh for each transition, so you never need to empty it — the app does that for you. Sweet!

Lists – Shared Wishlists and Private Lists

Tap the plus button to add your child’s digital wishlist, so both of you can see it and weigh up good birthday gifts. Just make sure you don’t share that list with your child! You control this by marking the avatars that should see the list — those shown in color can see it, unmarked ones cannot.

When you buy the game, the soccer shoes, or the skateboard, check the box, and everyone with access to the list sees the update immediately. And don’t forget: you can add the expense to the Finance Assistant to split it!

Want a list just for yourself? Unselect every avatar except your own when you create it — then only you will know it exists and can view its contents.

Lists can be deleted, unlike chat threads, which can only be archived.

To-Dos – Shared Tasks with Deadlines

Here you or your co-parent add tasks related to the children — a doctor’s appointment to book, a present to buy for a party — and set a deadline for when each task needs to be done.

Once the appointment is booked or the purchase made, tap the small marker on the right and the task is marked as done. The other person instantly sees that it’s complete. No more reminders or nagging!
