How much does Pick Up cost?
£14.99/month or £69 once for lifetime access. That's it. No per-parent pricing—one account covers your household. Compare that to other apps charging £99/year per parent, and Pick Up pays for itself quickly.
What if my ex refuses to use it?
You can use Pick Up even if they don't. You'll still have your calendar, your expense records, and your notes in one place. If they do join later, everything syncs automatically.
Is my data safe?
Your data is encrypted, stored on secure UK/EU servers, and fully GDPR compliant. We don't sell your information. You can export or delete everything at any time. After the recent breaches at nursery and school apps, we understand why you're asking—and we take it seriously.
Can I use this for emergencies?
For genuine emergencies, call the emergency services. Pick Up is designed for day-to-day coordination—schedules, handovers, expenses, routine updates. The kind of communication that used to spiral into arguments at 11pm.
What's different about Pick Up?
Other apps charge more, have features most people never use, and users complain about confusing navigation and poor mobile experience. Pick Up costs less, does the core things well—calendar, expenses, messaging—and doesn't overwhelm you with tools you'll never touch. We built it for parents who just want it to work.
Why should I pay when I can just text?
Pick Up keeps everything in one place—calendar, expenses, messages. No more scrolling through months of texts to find when you agreed to swap weekends. No more screenshots of receipts lost in your camera roll. If your co-parenting is already smooth, you probably don't need this. If you're tired of the chaos, it helps.
Will this stop my ex being difficult?
No app fixes a difficult person. But Pick Up reduces the friction. Shared calendar means fewer "I didn't know" moments. Expense tracking means fewer arguments about money. It won't change who they are, but it removes some of the things that cause conflict.
What if I'm not technical?
If you can use WhatsApp, you can use Pick Up. We've deliberately kept it simple—calendar, expenses, messages. No complicated setup. No confusing menus. Parents tell us they were up and running in under five minutes. And if you get stuck, we actually reply to support emails.
