## What is Chore Pad?

Chore Pad helps families build healthy habits and celebrate the everyday wins. Kids see what's expected, earn stars for getting it done, and trade stars for rewards you set together.

Get started in minutes with a starter set of common chores and rewards — or build your own from scratch.

EVERYONE ON ONE SCREEN
See every child on the Start Screen with their star totals and weekly progress at a glance. From two kids to an entire classroom, the layout adapts.

STARS THAT MOTIVATE
Kids earn stars as they complete chores, then redeem them for rewards you've created — anything from screen time to a family outing. Watch them save up for the big stuff.

A CHORE CHART KIDS LOVE
Delightful animations, satisfying sounds, and a charting metaphor that makes daily routines feel like a game — not homework.

SECURE PARENT MODE
A passcode-protected Parent Mode keeps configuration tucked safely away. Add passcode protection to individual Chore Chart features as needed.

POWERFUL CUSTOMIZATION
Build template chores and customize each individually per child, choose from included stock chore icons (or add your own photos), and set repeat schedules and star values to fit your family's rhythm.

CHORE PAD PREMIUM

- All themes
- Expanded chore icon library

### 5/5 — Please help!

*2026-06-02, version 6.3*

Hi ChorePad Support Team,
I am writing to you because I made a mistake and deeply regret requesting a refund through Apple. I wanted to explain what happened in hopes that you can help me keep my account active.
I got this app last month. Recently, when I saw a notice saying I had to pay for a subscription, I automatically assumed that the app had changed completely and that I was going to be forced to pay monthly subscriptions. In a moment of panic because this had happened before I immediately submitted a refund request to Apple.
However, right after that, I updated the app and read the notice carefully. I now see that I was actually being offered free Lifetime access because of my legacy status.
I love your app and absolutely do not want to lose my free Lifetime access. Since Apple does not allow users to cancel a refund request once it is submitted, I am worried their system will automatically revoke my account status once the refund processes.
If Apple approves the request and my access is turned off, is there any way you can help me restore my free legacy Lifetime status on your end?
Thank you so much for your time and for taking care of your long-time users! I sent an email but have not received any responses. 
Best regards
Kyles mom

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-08-24, version 5.2.1*

Great app! Please add widget so kids can update the chores without opening the I pad, that will be better..

### 4/5 — I give 4 stars…..

*2025-08-11, version 5.2.1*

So basically everything is so good. I love how you can like earn stars for stuff like rewards, but the only thing is weird about that is like when you get in the stars when you go to your rewards and you try to tap it like it glitches you out of the app so I feel like that needs some fixing but other than all it’s a pretty good app

### 3/5 — Please fix payout feature

*2025-03-17, version 5.2.1*

This app is an awesome idea and the features of choosing the jobs and icons to go with them is great. However, the payout feature to redeem their points doesn’t work = the app crashes and no points can be redeemed. Please can you fix this? For a paid app I think it is reasonable for all features to work properly.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2025-01-04, version 5.2.1*

Frustrating to use, doesn’t synch properly. Wish I hadn’t invested my time in this.

### 3/5 — Love APP but…

*2024-08-26*

I love the APP overall because it is so easy to use.  My issue is that it is supposed to automatically sync and it is not, so I have no way of looking at the app to see what each child has completed before granting rewards.  This is very inconvenient.  I hope I am doing something wrong.  The app was originally downloaded on my iPad where I created chores and delegated to my children.  I linked it with my Dropbox.  They have been excited to check off the chores daily but when I pull up the APP it is completely blank and when I try to sync NOTHING.  It says I only have to sync once.  I am confused.  I also sent out for some support and the email was sent back to me undelivered.  No known sender.  Please help!!  If I can get it to sync appropriately then I would give this APP 5 stars

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-07-31, version 5.2.1*

Was able to set up on my kids phones but now it no longer syncs and is unusable.

### 1/5 — Don’t Buy - Not Active

*2024-06-03, version 5.2.1*

I loved this app at first, it was just what I wanted for tracking chores and rewarding my kids but after a day it stopped syncing with their devices. The app hasn’t been updated in 6 years and their website and Facebook page are inactive. Don’t waste your money unless you’re only using it on one device and therefore don’t need it to sync up with your child’s device.

### 5/5 — Such a good app

*2023-11-16, version 5.2.1*

I love this app I used to hate doing chores but now I love it it is so easy to earn rewards and have fun at the same time I love this app it is worth the money and even the trial run app is good I got the full version because I have so many chores to get done but I still think both trial and full version are great I definitely recommend this app and it Is worth the pay

### 2/5 — good app but desperatley needs an update

*2023-10-25, version 5.2.1*

a fantastic app, but every time I go to “payout” a reward, it simply exits the app. As this is a critical feature of the app, I have only given 2 stars. If this was fixed, it would earn a 5 star review.
