## What is Cubby?

Cubby turns pocket money into a daily habit a child can see.

Chores, payday, and three jars. Your child ticks off what they did, taps payday, and drags their coins into Save, Give and Treats. The jars fill up, a savings goal gets closer every day, and the cash stays yours to hand over.

STARTS WITH A FREE WEEK ON THE YEARLY PLAN
Setup ends by choosing a plan. The yearly plan starts with a free week, and if you cancel before it is up you are not charged; the monthly plan starts straight away. One subscription covers every child in the family and every device you own, and there is still no account to make and no bank to link.

WHAT YOUR CHILD DOES
- Ticks off today's chores
- Taps payday and drags the coins into their jars
- Watches a goal fill up, one day at a time
- Sees what they gave away, and to whom

WHAT YOU SET UP
- Chores, how much each is worth, and how often
- How money splits across Save, Give and Treats
- A savings goal worth working toward
- The currency your family banks in, from dollars and euros to rupees, yen, pesos and more
- Optional overnight growth on the Save jar, so saving beats spending

BUILT FOR FAMILIES
- Everything behind a 4-digit grown-up code: cash-out, editing, settings
- Works for one child or several, each with their own jars and goals
- iCloud sync keeps one family in step across your own iPhones and iPads
- Change phones or reinstall and your cubby comes back: chores, jars, goals and code
- You are the bank. Cubby tracks it; you hand over the real money

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- No accounts, no sign-in, no email
- No ads, no third-party analytics, no tracking of any kind
- Your data stays on your device, or in your own private iCloud, end-to-end encrypted where neither we nor Apple can read it

Cubby Plus renews until you cancel it in Settings. Family Sharing is supported.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-25

Grown-ups can now check chores before they pay.

Turn on "Check chores first" in the Grown-up zone and a ticked chore waits for you instead of paying straight away. Approve it and the tokens land in that day's payday. Off by default, so nothing changes unless you want it to.

You can also reach us from inside the app now: Grown-up zone, Help, Email us.

And if you reinstall Cubby and dismiss the offer to bring your family back from iCloud, there is now a way to look again from the setup screen. Before this, the only way back was deleting the app.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-19

Cubby now speaks your money.

- Pick your family's currency: 25 to choose from, including euros, pounds, rupees, yen, pesos, ringgit and rand. Every jar, goal and payday restates itself, written the way your region writes it, and currencies without cents no longer show them.
- A coin is worth a sensible amount in your currency, not a converted one, and the starter goals are scaled to match.
- Reinstalled, or on a new phone? If iCloud sync was on, Cubby offers your family back instead of starting over.
- Setup now ends by choosing a plan, so nothing about the subscription arrives as a surprise later. The yearly plan starts with a free week; cancel before it is up and you are not charged.
- Fixes throughout: the payday screen no longer says "today" when you fill in a past day, a reached goal counts the days from when you set it, and un-ticking a starter chore can be undone.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-12
