2houses VS ShellNewHandler

• Comprehensive Co-Parenting Tools
  2houses offers a wide range of features specifically designed for separated or divorced parents, including shared calendars, expense management, a journal, and messaging — all in one platform tailored for co-parenting needs.
• Expense Tracking and Splitting
  The app includes a dedicated financial module that allows parents to log, categorize, and split shared child-related expenses, making it easier to manage and track who owes what without awkward conversations.
• Shared Calendar
  The shared custody calendar helps both parents stay organized by clearly displaying custody schedules, school events, activities, and appointments, reducing miscommunication and scheduling conflicts.
• Reduced Direct Conflict
  By providing a structured, documented communication platform, 2houses helps minimize direct confrontation between co-parents. Messages and records are stored, which can encourage more civil and accountable interactions.
• Accessible Across Devices
  2houses is available as both a web application and a mobile app (iOS and Android), making it convenient for parents to access information and communicate from anywhere at any time.

Possible disadvantages

• Subscription Cost
  2houses requires a paid subscription to access its full features, which can be a drawback for budget-conscious parents. While there is a trial period, ongoing costs may add up over time compared to free alternatives.
• Both Parents Must Participate
  The platform is only truly effective if both co-parents actively use it. If one parent refuses to engage with the app or is inconsistent in updating information, the tool loses much of its value.
• Learning Curve
  Some users find the interface and the variety of features somewhat overwhelming at first, requiring time and effort to set up and learn how to use all the tools effectively.
• Limited Free Features
  The free trial or limited version does not provide access to all features, which can be frustrating for users who want to fully evaluate the platform before committing to a subscription.
• Occasional Technical Issues
  Some users have reported occasional bugs, syncing issues, or slow performance, particularly with the mobile app, which can be inconvenient when trying to manage time-sensitive co-parenting logistics.

• I recently got libreoffice, but now the new option in right click looks like a mess. Can someone help me get rid of them please?

  Use Shell New Handler. Run the portable app and simply untick the items you don't want to appear in your new context menu. Source: about 4 years ago

• This menu should be easy to add/remove programs to... Who is really creating Access Databases from this menu often enough to keep it here? (Not me!) Is there an easy way to edit this?

  I've always used ShellNewHandler for this. It's a really simple portable utility that allows you to remove most of the items from that menu. Tested it out on Windows 11 and it's still compatible. Source: over 5 years ago
