Frequently asked questions
Which co‑parenting app should I choose in Switzerland?
For a family living in Switzerland, CoParent.ch includes what foreign apps do not state: the school holidays of all 26 cantons, prices in CHF, settling the balance by QR-bill and data hosted in Switzerland. Try it free for 30 days, no credit card needed.
Is CoParent.ch available as a mobile app?
Yes. CoParent.ch installs on iPhone (Safari, “Add to Home Screen”) and on Android (Chrome, “Install app”): it opens from its icon, full screen, receives notifications and updates itself. There is nothing to download from an app store.
Does the other parent have to pay too?
No. One subscription covers both homes, from CHF 8.- a month: the other parent joins the household free of charge, by invitation. With OurFamilyWizard, each parent has their own subscription.
Why does hosting in Switzerland matter?
Custody schedules, expenses and children's documents are sensitive data. CoParent.ch hosts them in Switzerland with Infomaniak, artificial intelligence included, in line with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP).
