"I re-read every message five times before sending. I'm exhausted."
For parents tired of arguments, missed handovers, and fights about money. One app. Shared calendars. Tracked expenses. Peace.
Pick Up is a co-parenting app built in the UK by H3llo H3llo Ltd. It helps separated parents manage shared calendars, track expenses, and communicate without conflict. Available as a web app with iOS coming soon. Free plan available; lifetime access for £69.
"I lie awake at night wondering if tomorrow's handover will start another fight."
Know exactly who has the kids and when. No surprises.
"I've lost track of who paid for what — and I'm too tired to bring it up again."
Every expense tracked. Automatic splits. No arguments.
"Every message turns into an argument. I dread opening the app."
Focused messaging with Tone Assist to keep the peace.
"The kids can feel the tension. I hate that they're caught in the middle."
Calm transitions. Clear expectations. Happier kids.
One clear win: drop-offs that are just... boring.
"We used to argue about the schedule constantly. Now we both just check the app."
One calendar. Both parents see the same thing. School terms, holidays, special occasions — all in one place with smart conflict detection.
You know exactly what's happening. So do they.
"I used to screenshot receipts and send them at 11pm. Now it's all just there."
Log expenses by category. Automatic splits based on your agreement. Clear running balance. Export for records if you ever need them.
You know who owes what. No awkward conversations.
"I used to re-read every message five times. Now I just say what I need to say."
Secure, focused messaging just for the kids. Tone Assist helps you rewrite stressful messages before they become arguments.
Say what you mean. Keep it about the kids.
Pick Up wasn't designed in a boardroom. It was built by parents who've lived through the frustration, the late-night arguments, the "whose weekend is it?" confusion.
We made the mistakes. We tried the spreadsheets, the shared calendars that nobody updated, the messaging apps where everything turned into a fight.
This is what we wished existed. Now it does.

No. Pick Up works even if only one parent uses it. You can manage your own calendar, log expenses, and keep records. It works better with both parents, but it's not required.
Pick Up is currently available as a web app that works on any device with a browser. Native iOS and Android apps are coming soon — sign up to be notified when they launch.
Pick Up is built specifically for UK parents with UK-specific features like school term awareness. Unlike OurFamilyWizard (which starts at $99/year per parent), Pick Up offers a lifetime deal for £69 total. Unlike Cozi (which is a family organiser), Pick Up is purpose-built for separated parents with features like Tone Assist and expense splitting.
Yes. Pick Up is UK GDPR compliant. Your data is stored securely, encrypted in transit and at rest. You can export or delete your data at any time. We never sell your information to third parties.
Pick Up keeps an activity log of all messages and schedule changes. While we can't give legal advice, many parents find this record helpful when working with solicitors or during family court proceedings.
Tone Assist analyses your messages before you send them and suggests calmer alternatives when the language might escalate conflict. It helps you keep communication focused on the children.
