BestInterest 3.0 marks a major upgrade, featuring an entirely new platform which will help us serve you better now and into the future. We're so excited to share some of the incredible new features that you've been asking for: Shared expense tracking Split costs with your co-parent and keep a clear, shared ledger. Submit expenses for approval, attach or scan receipts, dispute charges, and see your running balance at a glance. Export a full expense report whenever you need one. Video & voice calls Call your co-parent or your kids directly through the app — no need to share personal phone numbers. All calls are documented and can be included in your Verified Reports. Custody calendar See your full custody schedule in one place. Request schedule changes, propose trades, and get notified when your co-parent accepts or declines. Every change to the calendar is tracked with a full history. You can even view your calendar in Google Calendar or whatever calendar app you already use. Submit trade requests directly in the app. Works on iPad and the web The app now runs on the web and on iPad, with layouts designed for larger screens — everything side-by-side, the way it should be. More powerful Verified Reports Generate a tamper-evident PDF record of your communication history to share with your attorney, judge, or other legal professional. Reports now include call logs, embedded message images, and a clear disclosure of exactly what's included. Smarter AI Coach The Coach now understands your custody schedule when answering questions, and you can submit screenshots for direct review. The more you interact, the more tailored the guidance becomes. Message Shield improvements The AI that reviews your messages before sending has gotten significantly better — more accurate and faster. Journal & Message search improvements Find past journal entries by what they mean, not just what they say. Describe a situation and the app surfaces the most relevant entries — even if you didn't use those exact words. Walkthroughs & onboarding New interactive walkthroughs guide you through the Calendar, Schedule Changes, Expenses, and Shared Documents features when you first use them.
