Cozi Family Organizer.
The #1 organizing app for the modern Family.
Review
There are a few apps that I use daily on both my iPhone and iPad, but there is only one that my entire family uses, husband and children alike. Best part, it isn't a game!
The Cozi Family Organizer lives up to it's name. It keeps the family life in sync with each other and is available as a desktop app and available in the Google Play Store and the Apple Store!
Seriously, it is set up for a color coded calendar. Choose a color for each family member and then it makes to seeing who is where and when at a glance. This is especially helpful for parents who need to know when doctors appointments and play-dates are.
When you add appointments, you can designate which family members are involved. Once you add in the appointment is it added into the "family calender". Everyone will have the option to see it once it is added.
Additional features in this app are to-do lists, shopping lists, and even a family journal that you can include text and photos that you can share certain posts over the internet as a "family blog".
The account and apps are free, however these are ad-supported. If you choose to pay $5.99 to upgrade to CoziGold you get the ad-free apps and many more features. Best part, everything works cross-platfrom...meaning, it works on the iPhone, iPad, Android phone, Android tablet...
Personal Opinion
I personally have found this app to be a life saver for both my family life and my business life. Being new to the business world and starting a new business, keeping appointments, to-do lists, and shopping lists in the same place as I keep everything for my home life is a lot simpler then keeping different apps or calenders for everything.
I personally keep multiple to-do lists: my husband's home projects, my to-do list, my work to-do list, and even my "house-cleaning" lists.
Multiple shopping lists: Husband's Project shopping list (with headers for different projects), my business shopping list, and household/grocery lists.
I dont use the journal all too often, but when I do it is for major events like holidays or fun little bets between me and my husband. :-)
Conclusion
Try this app out! It is worth the time and effort. I have been able to relax knowing that my family's schedules are all in sync. Have you already tried it? Comment below and let me know what you think?
