User Reviews

AppClose is valued by some users for its role in court-ordered co-parent communication and for features like printing messages and video calls, plus basic logging of conversations. However, most reviews cite serious reliability issues (messages/calls/notifications), a costly and opaque subscription model with iPayou limits, and poor customer support. Additional concerns include notification UI quirks and calendar/transaction limitations. Overall, reliability and support are the dominant negatives that offset potential benefits for users relying on the app for legal/co-parenting needs.

Pros

Effective for co-parent communication, especially when court-ordered.
Features like printing messages and making video calls.
Useful for logging conversations (communication history).

Cons

Frequent reliability issues: messages and calls often don’t work, with delayed or missing notifications.
Mandatory pricing model: monthly/yearly subscriptions with perceived limited value and iPayou transaction limits.
Poor or slow customer support, with many reports of unhelpful or unresponsive help.
UX/feature problems like generic notification banners and calendar/transaction limitations.

This app never sends messages and you have to pay for it! Has to update all the time. Super slow

The app is very functional and I love the ability to export official timestamped records so easily. I would really love a dedicated Parenting Log feature. I know you can add notes in the calendar feature but I would love it's own built in log feature where you can quickly add certain things you want to track and create records of (ie. school times, activities, meals, wake and sleep times, medications, potty training, behavioral concerns, etc.). So that each day pre-fills with what you want to track and you can quickly input the values. It would make high conflict co-parenting much easier to have the extra data all in the same place. Some feedback - When exporting chat reports, any documents sent in chat only display the first page of the document in the records. It would be nice to have the option to choose to include all pages in the export. Also when sending documents, it would be nice to be able to review or add one extra stop to make sure you are ready to send. I would like the option to send groups of files rather than one at a time. Also, small problem - I don't know if it's something I've done but I have a notification that will not go away no matter how many times I click on view event. The calendar is still a bit confusing for me and even though it says it can be private I still am unsure what is viewable by the other party. It is an excellent app however and I do prefer it over its competitors.
