## What is BeFamily?

Don't let managing your family feel like a chore. BeFamily was created by parents who were tired of the endless back-and-forth about who’s driving the kids, organizing childcare, and the admin work of running a family. Now you can be more calm and be there for your family.

### 1/5 — Buggy.

*2026-03-08*

Deleted it as soon as I found out the tasks didn’t show.

### 5/5 — Keeps my family sane!!

*2025-01-20*

We love this app!! The calendar keeps my whole family organized, the to do tracking means I don’t carry the mental load of everything going on. I put it in the app and we all knock stuff out! I no longer have to nag about chores- the app sets routines and reminds them for me! The AI chat helps with so many random things - finding an electrician, scanning my kids practice schedule so I don’t have to manually enter everything, birthday gift ideas…. Seriously this app has made my life so much easier!!

### 4/5 — Responsive and functional

*2024-12-17, version 1.1.1*

The support team is phenomenal and is constantly working on improving the product. I switched from another family planner and after over a year of use will not turn back!

### 4/5 — Good but could be great with improvements

*2024-09-23*

This app is super functional when it comes to sharing lists with your partner. It’s reliable and has a lot of useful features but it also misses the mark on some basic functionality. 

CONS: There are small small annoying things that could be easily fixed with a simple update. 1) Unchecking an item should automatically push that item to either the top or bottoms of list (or this should at least be an option in Settings). Currently, you have to drag and drop each item individually and it is a p a i n f u l tedious process for those with long grocery lists. 

2) Most apps have the “3 black lines” option where, when you tap on the 3 black lines at the top right corner in “edit mode, it will allow you to reorder a list with ease. This app does not and it makes rearranging a list very tedious. Yes, the app allows you to “press and hold” and item to drag and drop but it’s horribly difficult to do and glitchy. Also, if your list if long, it just doesn’t work. 

I do really love this app but please consider adding these VERY functional updates to make it even better! It would be such a simple upgrade and immensely improve the user experience!

### 5/5 — Download now. You’ll thank me later.

*2024-05-12*

BeFamily is an absolute game-changer! This app seamlessly blends project management, event planning, and calendar functionality into one powerhouse tool for families. With BeFamily, I've effortlessly organized events, stayed on top of daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly tasks, and even managed big-picture projects with ease. Unlike other project management apps, BeFamily goes above and beyond, offering unparalleled functionality and user-friendly interface. It's not just an app, it's a lifesaver! 5 stars without a doubt.

### 1/5 — Always free! (not)

*2024-05-12*

Promote something as always free, and then hide functionality behind a paid membership.

### 4/5 — Great start

*2024-01-20*

It’s a good calendar app! There’s just a few bugs. One of them being that there are some events that don’t allow me to edit them (because the edit selection is missing from the top right corner), and therefore can’t delete them. 
I’d really love a widget as well! So I can see what I have for my day on my phone’s Home Screen.

### 5/5 — Life Saver

*2024-01-13*

If you are a caregiver, married, a parent juggling multiple schedules then consider purchasing this app! It has transformed my caregiver duties and minimized scheduling conflicts between my husband and myself. My mottos is "work smart not hard" and this helps us get it done. You can synchronize multiple schedules to see conflicts in advance when attempting to make appointments, etc. It can sync between computers, laptops and mobile phones so that scheduling is seamless and fluent across all platforms! I don't even remember how I discovered the app but it has been a blessing.

### 5/5 — Very helpful organizational tool

*2023-12-18*

Keeps our family organized and on track all week!

### 5/5 — Great Family App

*2023-11-28*

My dad had a recent stroke. My husband has PTSD. Between my two men, I’m all over the place with scheduling appointments and to-do lists. This app has simplified that process. Everyone can now see what is on the unified calendar and nothing gets overlooked or forgotten.
