    Cozi: the calendar you fill in

    Cozi is a long-standing shared family calendar with color-coding, lists and a recipe box. If your household just needs one shared place to look, it does that well.

    Events go in when someone in the family types them in. The school email is still read by a person.

    Fivey: reads it, then asks

    Fivey reads school and activity emails, picks out the dates, and offers each one to you on WhatsApp. Nothing goes on the calendar until you say yes.

    The honest questions

    How is Fivey different from Cozi?

    Cozi is a shared calendar you fill in yourself. Fivey reads the school and activity emails, finds the dates, and offers each one to you — it only goes on the calendar when you say yes.

    Does Fivey book or send anything on its own?

    No. Fivey asks before anything is added, sent or shared. Booking help is not part of the beta yet.
