Write down what happened while it is still clear. Every entry is sealed and timestamped the moment you save it, so you keep a tamper-evident record, ready to hand to your attorney if that day ever comes.
7 days free, then $17.99 a month or $179.99 a year.
Each entry gets a SHA-256 fingerprint, joins a chain with every entry before it, and is timestamped by DigiCert, an independent authority with no stake in your case. Change an old entry and the break shows.

Bring in a day's texts straight from Messages, or add screenshots, emails and PDFs. They go onto your timeline on the dates they happened, marked as imports and kept apart from your sealed entries, so the record stays clear about what was written when.
Entries come out in order with photos and files embedded, and the verification details at the back so anyone can check nothing changed since you saved it. You choose the dates it covers.
School pickups, homework at the kitchen table, the birthday party you planned. A record that only holds the hard days does not look like your life. Documented keeps all of it, so the timeline resembles what actually happened.
Entries live on your phone and in your own iCloud. The only thing that leaves is the fingerprint, which cannot be turned back into what you wrote, and it goes to the timestamp authority, not to us. Face ID keeps the app locked.
Nobody sees your record unless you connect them. If you decide to, your attorney gets their own view of what you shared, in order, with the details to check when each entry was sealed. Until then it stays on your phone.
“Finally an app that treats parenting records the way they should be treated. Sealed the moment you write them, independently stamped, and completely private. It’s fast enough to use in the parking lot before pickup. Simple, fast and trustworthy just what I needed.”
“I’ve only been using this app for a few days but I love how simple it is to log events and keep track of my parenting and how I show up.”
Issued by DigiCert under RFC 3161, not by us.
Entries are linked by SHA-256, so a change cannot be hidden.
On your phone and your iCloud. We cannot read it.
Not a law firm. We never promise how a case goes.
Most entries will never matter.
The few that do will matter because they were written at the time, not remembered later.
No. Documented is yours alone. The other parent is never invited, never notified, and never gets an account, because there is nothing for them to log into. This is not a shared co-parenting app and does not try to be one. Nothing you write leaves your phone unless you export it and hand it over yourself.
$17.99 a month, or $179.99 a year, which works out at $15.00 a month. Seven days free first, billed through the App Store or Google Play, and you cancel from the phone. That is the whole price list.
If you get to the end of the trial and decide not to subscribe, nothing you have already written is taken away. Your entries stay on your phone, and you can still open, search and verify every one of them. What stops is adding new entries and exporting, until you subscribe. We will not hold a record you may need in a live matter behind a payment.
On your device, and synced through your own iCloud account, so a lost phone does not lose the record. They are not stored on our servers and we cannot read them. The one thing that leaves your phone when you seal an entry is a hash, a short fingerprint that cannot be turned back into what you wrote, and it goes to the timestamp authority rather than to us.
Text, photos, video, voice notes, receipts, and screenshots of message threads. Voice notes are transcribed on the device, so you can search what you said without typing it up. Receipts are read for the amount and the date so you are not copying numbers by hand.
Two things, and they work together. Each entry is hashed into a chain, so changing an old entry breaks every entry after it and the break is visible. And each one gets a timestamp from DigiCert, an independent authority with no stake in your case, which is what makes the date something other than your word.
The useful part is not that the record cannot be altered. It is that altering it cannot be hidden.
Yes. Each child has their own record, and an entry is filed against the child it concerns. The export can cover one child or all of them.
Yes. An entry can name anyone who was there: a grandparent, a teacher, a supervisor, a therapist, whoever’s relevant, each with their own role. You pick from common roles or type your own, and once an entry is sealed, the people on it are sealed too.
You export a PDF. Entries come out in order with the photos and files embedded, and the verification details laid out at the back so anyone can check the record has not been altered since you saved it. It is one file, ready to hand to your attorney, and you decide what date range it covers.
You can lock the app behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode, separately from your phone's own lock. Someone holding an unlocked phone still does not get into your record.
We will not promise you that, and be careful of anyone who does. Whether a record helps depends on your case, your jurisdiction and your attorney, and Documented is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.
What we can say is what the record is. It is contemporaneous, which means written at the time rather than assembled once a hearing was scheduled, and that is the distinction judges tend to care about. It is tamper-evident, not tamper-proof: nothing can stop a file being edited, but this shows you when one has been.
Start documenting how you show up, privately, on your device, sealed the instant you log it.
Your entries stay on your device. The other parent never has to join.
