Family Messenger

Visit Familio

Familio is a shared inbox for families that gathers household communication and coordination in one place, replacing scattered emails, texts, notifications, and paper notes. It is intended to help families manage messages from schools and activities, conversations with other parents, bills and statements, and everyday tasks such as carpool arrangements and event RSVPs.

The inbox brings together chats, emails, texts, and calls, with read and unread status per family member, archiving, pins for important messages and files, camera uploads for letters and papers, and virtual sticky notes. It includes a shared family email address, a shared phone number for SMS and calls, and a shared family calendar with day, week, and month views, individual filtering, reminders, event creation, and RSVP tracking. Family chat is listed as coming soon.

Familio is aimed at busy families and is available as an app for iOS and Android. The app is offered free, while the shared phone number for SMS and calls is part of Familio Plus.
