A private alternative to Coparently
Coparently appears to be offline: in November 2026, coparently.com showed a domain parking page instead of the service. It was a shared calendar and messaging tool for two parents. Oya Shield does a different job: it is your own private record of entries and expenses, with one parent, no shared account, and no invitation.
Updated November 7, 2026
Not a like-for-like replacement
Coparently was built for two parents: a shared custody calendar, messaging, shared expenses, and shared contacts, priced per parent. That is useful when both sides take part. We found no closure announcement, so we cannot say what happened to it, and what follows comes from archived copies of its site from 2022 and 2023. Oya Shield has no shared calendar and no messaging. It starts from the opposite premise: a record that does not depend on the other parent's cooperation, and is not theirs to see.
| Oya Shield | CoparentlyAs its site described it in 2022 and 2023 | |
|---|---|---|
| Available today | Yes. On the App Store for iPhone and iPad. | It appears not. In November 2026 its site was a domain parking page, its sign-in address did not respond, and we found no current App Store listing. |
| Who has to join | Just you. Works from day one, no invitation. | Built for both parents, with its tools shared between them and pricing set per parent. |
| Who sees your entries | Only you, unless you share it with a professional. Your log is private to your account. | The calendar, messages, expenses, and contacts were shared between parents, and you could add free guest users. |
| Core job | A private, structured record of entries and expenses. | A shared scheduling and communication tool for separated parents. |
| Shared calendar & messaging | No. Oya Shield does not replace how you communicate. | Yes. A color-coded custody calendar and a communication tool were central. |
| Entry log with importance & categories | Yes. Title, facts, category, importance, photos, timestamps. | A journal was listed with shared communication. Its site did not describe a structured incident log. |
| Turn screenshots into entries | Yes. On an iPhone with Apple Intelligence, screenshots and pasted messages are read on the device and proposed as entry and expense drafts you review before saving. | Its site listed shared documents, photos, and files. It did not describe reading them into draft entries. |
| Edits preserve the original | Yes. An edit keeps the original in the history on the device where you made it, and each entry has a fingerprint that changes if its content changes. | Its site described an accurate record of communications and events. It did not describe an edit history. |
| Shared expense tracking | Yes. Splits by percentage or amount, receipts attached. | Yes. Parents logged shared expenses and payments, with a percentage set for each parent. |
| PDF export | Yes, with Premium: a clean, dated PDF of your record, amendments noted. Exporting the full record as a ZIP is free. | Expense records were described as printable and exportable. |
| Platforms | iPhone and iPad, iOS 26 or later. No Android, and no web app for parents. | Modern web browsers, with mobile access on iPhone and Android. |
| Setup | About two minutes, on your own. | Online sign-up with a free trial. |
| Pricing model | Free to download. Premium is needed for new entries: $8.99 a month or $85.99 a year (US prices), with a free week for eligible new subscribers. | A monthly or yearly subscription, paid per parent, after a free trial. |
The Coparently column reflects archived copies of its own site from 2022 and 2023. Availability is what we could see in November 2026.
When a shared calendar app is the right call
Honestly: if what you miss is a calendar and messaging that both parents use, Oya Shield will not fill that gap. Look at a shared platform instead, such as the ones compared below. Oya Shield is not a shared channel, and it is not trying to be. What it replaces is the notes app, the scattered screenshots, and the shoebox of receipts: the private record you keep regardless of what you coordinate together.
Frequently asked questions
Is Coparently still running?
It appears not, but we cannot confirm it. When we checked in November 2026, coparently.com showed a domain parking page, its old sign-in address did not respond, its help center was closed, and we found no current App Store listing. We found no closure announcement. Oya Shield has no connection to Coparently, so treat this as what we could see, not an official statement.
Is Oya Shield a replacement for Coparently?
Only in part. Oya Shield tracks shared expenses, with splits by percentage or amount and receipts attached, but your co-parent does not see them. It has no shared calendar and no messaging. It is a private log for what you observe and what you spend, kept by one parent.
Can I use Oya Shield if my co-parent will not join anything?
Yes, and that is the point. Oya Shield is your own record: no shared account, no invitation. You can start documenting today without your co-parent's agreement, knowledge, or cooperation, because the log is private to you.
Can I bring my old Coparently records into Oya Shield?
There is no direct import, and we do not know whether Coparently data can still be retrieved. If you kept printouts or exports, you can re-enter past events as dated entries. Each entry keeps when it happened, which you set, and when it was logged.
