Just what we needed

### 5/5 — Great for motivation

*2026-08-02, version 5.4.1*

Love it to help my kids have a sense of the cost of items and feel motivated to do things that they don't feel like doing/try things outside of their comfort zone.

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2026-08-02, version 5.4.1*

Even with teenagers!

This app makes chores manageable it’s awesome

### 5/5 — Has streamlined my household without nagging!

*2026-07-21, version 5.4*

Both positive and negative reinforcement. Minimized kids asking for the bigs they want, but don’t need.  Has encouraged saving!

### 3/5 — Great idea,  messy app

*2026-07-08, version 5.3.2*

For a family full of neurodivergents we were hoping this would be a great option but it’s just too many steps and some bugs made it frustrating

### 5/5 — Must Have!

*2026-07-06, version 5.3*

I have recommended this app to every parent I know. I have 3 kids and used to track these things on a board. Remembering everything that happened when we weren’t home was impossible. This app has made positive/ negative reinforcement effortless

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-07-02, version 5.3*

Like it

### 5/5 — Thanks for helping me manage my classroom store with much less stress.

*2026-07-01, version 5.3*

I love the unlimited family members … wish their was a classroom theme, but zI’m grateful

### 4/5 — Great for kids

*2026-06-16, version 5.1*

I love the app. I really like that the kids can take photos of the chore or task they had to do. It helps them learn on what they are doing and completing. Also the only update I can see is being able to see on the home page what chores are still needed per child instead of just having the checkboxes on it. It would be easier to know oh they haven’t done this chore bc it’s not time for them to do it or something along those lines.

### 2/5 — Idk how to use it

*2026-06-15, version 5.1*

Can someone teach me how to use this app please

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-06-13, version 5.1*

Awesome functionality very user friendly

### 5/5 — Great reward system manager app

*2026-05-29, version 5.0.1*

Has really helped my family create a reward system!!

### 5/5 — We love Privilege Points!

*2026-05-29, version 5.0.1*

We love Privilege Points! I have been using this for a couple of years with my teenage boys. It gives them incentive to mow grass, weed eat, unload the dishwasher, wash their clothes, clean out the gutters, cook dinner, etc. They can cash out their points for money or use them for fun activities like the trampoline park or go cart track. My 16 year old cashes his out now to pay his truck insurance!

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-05-28, version 5.0.1*

It’s so good I have never used something like this

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-05-27, version 5.0.1*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Hate it

*2026-08-15, version 5.4.2*

Nobody cares about it after a week

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-02-06, version 4.7*

Downloaded a n Feb 5. Took the $30 from my account and won’t let me login. Every thing I do says invalid. Called my bank and the said company is flagged for fraud!!! So I’m out $$$.

### 1/5 — App claims it’s free to use with upgrades available for a better experience, like a lot of apps. How

*2026-02-03, version 4.7*

Tried it because of its claim as a great free app.However, if you want anything useful you’ll have to purchase upgrades. It’s aesthetically outdated. I don’t usually write reviews but it’s not worth your time.

### 1/5 — Cheap

*2025-10-19, version 4.4*

You have to pay to give more than 10 points

### 1/5 — Fat looser devs

*2025-01-07, version 4.1*

THIS APP IS RUINING MY LIFE😡

### 1/5 — Ugh.

*2024-04-22, version 3.14*

Upon opening the app, you will find that creating an account is required to continue. I do not wish to do this. Goodbye, and uninstalled.

### 1/5 — Nice idea but just not intuitive

*2022-04-30, version 2.11.1*

Great idea but I couldn’t get this app setup. You maybe more patient than me and have better success but if you are expecting out of the box ease of use, look elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Deleted immediately

*2021-02-23, version 2.2.1*

I just wanted a simple point list. Did not want to have to deal with emails logins verification codes etc. was trying to make things simpler not a headache.

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2020-11-21, version 2.1*

Overall, I really like the app. I have a 3 boys and we have been looking for something easy to use for awhile that still motivates them and is very clear on what they need to do each day/week.  The reason I am giving this app a one star is simply because of customer service. I purchased a new phone and forgot my password to this app. It will not send me the email to reset the password. I emailed customer service multiple times and have never received a response. Therefore, they will be losing my business. It’s sad, because I really liked the app and spent a lot of time setting it up just right. I would’ve probably continued the subscription for awhile because it seemed to work for our family.

### 1/5 — Design

*2020-04-10, version 1.9.1*

The design is so out dated that I wanted to delete it right away.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Good little app

*2026-08-23, version 5.4.3*

I like how they stick to one niche and improve on it. Quality over quantity. I also like the check lists. They are great for routines. It’s perfect for my son. We use the privilege points and the allowance. The child asks for the task to be approved so we can check it first before he gets points. The price is affordable and appropriate for the niche function of tracking kids’ chores.

### 5/5 — Just what our family needed

*2026-08-21, version 5.4.3*

This app has been amazing for our family, especially for me as a homeschool mom of three trying to keep track of these points has been tough , but now it is not only easy but enjoyable!

### 5/5 — Bug

*2026-08-21, version 5.4.3*

There can be reminders given even after you do the chore, makes too many notifications.

### 5/5 — A Useful Parental Tool

*2026-08-19, version 5.4.2*

Very useful app, the kids have adapted to it quickly, and it definitely helps motivate good and discourage bad.  It’s intuitive and does the math for you.

### 5/5 — Well designed

*2026-08-13, version 5.4.2*

I love this so much and it works so well for our lives that I ditched our physical chore chart and the kids are now doing more of their chores to get the points and quick payment. We do a mixture of cash and points and this app works so well for our family. So many other apps we tried were so fixated on their ways of doing things that we couldn’t personalize it to how we use a chore chart. I’ve requested a few improvements on the app that are minor that I hope will be implemented to make things go even a little more  quickly in personalizing it. But getting set up and all the kids on board using it was so smooth and easy. I’m loving all the neat features that really helps us personalize it. I thought I wanted an android based digital calendar system to have a chore chart, but after trying this, I will not bother with anything else. Not only are my kids more focused on getting things done, I now am too. I made myself a “kids” profile to earn points and have found I like the motivation of checking boxes to earn points. I’ve been making my bed, doing laundry and doing housework to earn points. Not sure what my reward is going to be yet, but I’ll think of something good. This app is well thought out. The only thing it is missing is being able to add points for good behavior outside of chore assignment. You can charge points for misbehavior, such as breaking a rule. And that motivates them to follow the wanted behavior as there is a consequence for not being obedient. I want them to earn many points for all kinds of good behavior as a reminder of all that they do that is pleasing and helpful. They are encouraged to do chores on their own now without being asked. We turned off all notifications because it is excessive for our big family to approve each time they do their chores. It’s awesome to be able to approve the work they do before they get paid the points or money. No other chore system I tried allowed such parental control in the day to day running of it. Its easy and intuitive and runs on all my Apple devices. It was very easy setting up the children’s apps to see only their chores. I never seen such an easy set up before and was so impressed. I’m happy to subscribe to the yearly plan to support the app, though it will be expensive to be paying this every year. For the ease in family life and encouraging getting work done, I think it will be worth it. The free version is nice to try it out.

### 5/5 — Great tool. Lots to personalize

*2026-08-11, version 5.4.2*

I love how easy it is to personalize everything. It takes a while to get it all set up but it works well for us.

### 5/5 — Great Motovation

*2026-08-07, version 5.4.2*

This app helps give my kids a reason to do their chores, brush teeth, etc. And it’s a good way to allot screen time.

### 5/5 — Best Chore App Ever!!!

*2026-08-04, version 5.4.1*

This has made it so easy to incentivize my kids. I love this system!!!

### 5/5 — Kids love it

*2026-08-03, version 5.4.1*

Great app!!!!

### 5/5 — Amazing! Recommend at my work all the time

*2026-08-03, version 5.4.1*

Great for all ages. I tell all the families I work with about it and I haven’t had any complaints! All big fans. 😁
