Best for divorced and co-parenting households

A family calendar built for two households reading the same email.

Memry helps divorced and co-parenting households see the same school, activity, medical, and billing email — without forwarding chains, screenshot wars, or one parent always being the last to know.

Start a co-parenting workspaceSign in

Designed for split-custody information flow

When school newsletters go to one parent's address and activity portals go to the other, important dates land asymmetrically. Memry creates one private household address that catches forwards from both parents and reconciles the week into one view.

Auditable instead of accusatory

Every extracted reminder traces back to the original email and timestamp. When a missed pickup or signed slip becomes a dispute, the source of truth is visible to both parents — not buried in one inbox.

Lower-friction than a shared calendar app

Shared calendars require somebody to manually create the event. Memry starts upstream — the forwarded email itself becomes the event, no copy-paste required from either parent.

family calendar for divorced parents

What fits this household

Each parent forwards the school, activity, and medical email they receive — Memry merges them into one shared week.
Extracted dates, deadlines, and fees link to the original email so the other parent can verify in one tap.
No 'did you see this email?' threads — both parents see the same shared calendar at the same time.

Shared signal

One household

Each parent's school portal email lands in the same shared workspace, not in one parent's private inbox.

Cuts out

Forwarding chains

No more 'fwd: fwd: field trip slip due tomorrow' six hours after the deadline passes.

Source-linked

Original email kept

Every extracted date stays attached to the original message — easy to verify when accounts of who told whom diverge.

Why a 'family calendar' isn't enough for divorced parents

Shared Google Calendars and family-calendar apps assume one parent will type every event into the calendar. That assumption breaks the moment two households are coordinating the same kid. The school email goes to one parent. The soccer schedule update goes to the other. The pediatric appointment confirmation goes to whichever email was on file last. Without a shared intake layer, both parents are constantly retyping the same information — or worse, missing it. Memry treats the inbox as the source of truth and extracts a shared weekly view from there.

  • Both parents can forward into the same private household address.
  • Extracted events link back to the forwarded email they came from.
  • Original message stays one tap away for verification.

What a typical week looks like with Memry for co-parents

Parent A forwards the school's Sunday-night newsletter. Parent B forwards the soccer coach's Wednesday practice-change email. Memry extracts the field trip on Thursday, the early dismissal on Friday, and the rescheduled practice on Saturday — all into the same week view that both parents see. Each event links to the forwarded email that created it. When dispute arises about whether a notice was sent, the original message is visible to both parents with the timestamp intact. No screenshot exchanges, no 'I sent that to you weeks ago.'

How this compares to forwarding chains and shared calendars

Forwarding chains keep the information in one parent's inbox and rely on that parent to relay it. Shared calendars require manual event creation, which means one parent is doing the unpaid coordination work. A shared Memry household sits between the email and the calendar — both parents forward, both parents see, neither parent becomes the bottleneck.

  • Forwarding chains: information stays in one parent's inbox until they relay it.
  • Shared calendars: information requires manual event creation by one parent.
  • Memry household: information lands on a shared calendar both parents see.

Privacy considerations for divorced households

Memry only sees what's forwarded to the household address. Each parent keeps their primary inbox private — the forwarding alias is opt-in per message or per Gmail filter. The message text and the extracted events and tasks stay in the shared household record. Both parents see the same workspace; nothing is hidden from the other parent inside Memry, which is the point — but neither parent's main inbox is exposed.

Getting started as a co-parenting household

Create one household account. Invite the other parent. Each parent sets up a Gmail filter that forwards school, activity, and medical senders to the Memry household address. Within the first week, the shared inbox and calendar will show what's already in motion — field trip forms, appointment confirmations, billing notices. Adjust filters as you learn which senders matter. The setup pays back the first time both parents see the same Wednesday-morning early-dismissal notice without either of them having to text the other.

Availability of original message content

Memry keeps source context so you can check a captured plan. Raw email bodies and extracted attachment text are scheduled to age out 30 days after review, or 90 days after receipt if unreviewed. Keep any original records you need in the system where you received them; see the privacy page for current retention details.

FAQ

Do both parents need to share the same email account?

No. Each parent keeps their own primary email. Each parent sets up forwarding rules to the shared Memry household address. Memry merges the forwards into one shared view.

Can the other parent see my whole inbox?

No. Only the messages you choose to forward to Memry are visible. Your primary inbox stays private. Memry shows what's been forwarded into the shared household — nothing more.

What if the other parent doesn't want to participate?

Memry still works for the participating parent. The shared household will simply only contain the email that one parent forwards. The other parent can be added later without losing prior history.

Does Memry handle custody-schedule emails differently?

Memry treats custody-related emails like any other forwarded message — it extracts dates, deadlines, and event details. Court-ordered custody schedules themselves typically belong in dedicated co-parenting tools; Memry handles the everyday school/activity/medical layer that those tools don't touch.

Is Memry free for divorced parents?

Yes. Memry is free, with no subscription required. Both parents can forward email into one shared household.

Does Memry sync to Google Calendar?

Yes. Each parent can connect their own Google Calendar, and Memry adds the household's events to it, so both parents see Memry events in their preferred view.
