Communication & Documentation
Reliable, Court-Trusted Business Records - Every message, call, request, and payment on AppClose is securely and automatically time-stamped, encrypted, and stored as part of an unaltered system of record. AppClose records are designed for reliability and use in U.S. family law courts and courts of general jurisdiction that handle family law matters.
AppClose offers Unlimited Certified Electronic Business Records, providing tamper-resistant record exports generated directly from the encrypted, unaltered original records stored on the platform. Any user may initiate a certified records export. Whether introduced by a user or their attorney, each export includes a unique record ID and certification timestamp verifying its source and integrity.
Attorneys and courts may independently verify a record ID through AppClose's verification website and, via AppClose Pro, download the same stored certified records directly from the system. In response to a proper subpoena, AppClose will also certify records through a business records affidavit.
Certified Business Records are available only to users in the United States.
Secure Messaging - Send secure, unalterable encrypted private or group messages with co-parents, family law professionals, or other authorized contacts. Attach files, scan documents, or take photos/videos (no location data recorded) and send instantly. Search message history and bookmark important messages for fast access.
Unlimited Audio & Video Calling - Call without revealing personal phone numbers. With mutual consent, calls can be recorded, transcribed, and securely stored, with no limit on the number of such calls.
Journaling & Notes - Document incidents, milestones, or observations. Keep entries private or share with your co-parent or legal professional.

Solo Mode (Exclusive to AppClose) - Manage your parenting records, schedules, and expenses even without the other parent connected. Send requests/events/expenses to non-users via text, email, or social media. Attach receipts or documents, and track responses.
Check-In for Pick-Ups & Drop-Offs - Privately log arrivals and departures with GPS-verified check-ins. Records are time-stamped and stored for accountability, but your location is never shared with anyone.

Absolute best thing for high conflict parenting situations. The fact everything is saved digitally online and unable to erase is the best and very clever. The .pdf formatting of the text messages is golden and I wish I would’ve had this from the beginning of the breakup. This app is great.
