Some days end and you realise you never really connected with your kid. Not because you didn't care — the day just went. DOSE gives you one small, specific thing to do together. Chosen for your child's age. Usually five to twenty minutes. WHAT YOU GET EVERY DAY • Two suggested activities per child, matched to their age • A conversation starter for the dinner table • For tweens and teens: a short message you can just send them Open it, pick one, do it. That's the whole app. 348 ACTIVITIES, SORTED BY AGE Ages 2–4, 5–8, 9–12 and 13–17. A toddler gets a sticker mission; a fifteen-year-old gets a co-op gaming session or a video edit challenge. Nothing suggested for your teen will feel like it was written for a five-year-old. Add your own activities too — the ones that already work in your family. FOUR KINDS OF CONNECTION Every activity is tagged with the feel-good brain chemical it leans on: • Dopamine — achievement, novelty, building something • Oxytocin — closeness, affection, being known • Serotonin — pride, recognition, feeling steady • Endorphins — movement, laughter, being silly together DOSE rotates the focus so you are not doing the same kind of thing every day. The Progress tab shows the balance across all four, so you can see if you have been all games and no warmth. 100 DINNER QUESTIONS Real conversation starters, sorted into Easy Starters, Silly & Funny, Would You Rather, Imagination, and Gratitude & Growth. For the nights when "how was school?" gets you "fine". 120 MESSAGES FOR TWEENS AND TEENS The age when they stop wanting to do activities is the age a text lands best. Short, sendable, not embarrassing. A STREAK WORTH KEEPING Tick off what you actually did. DOSE tracks the streak, forgives one missed day a week, and keeps a log of everything — including your own notes about how it went. Six months in, that log is the thing you will want to read. NO ACCOUNTS. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE. No sign-up, no login, no email address. Your children's names, ages, your activity history and your notes are stored on your device and never sent to us. We could not read them if we wanted to. ONE PURCHASE, NOT A SUBSCRIPTION Try everything free for 7 days. After that, the Today tab and your streak stay free forever — the app never stops working. Unlock the full library, dinner questions, teen messages, history and progress with a single purchase. Once. Not monthly. For parents of one kid or five. Made by parents who kept meaning to do better and needed the reminder. ## Version history (last 1 release) ### 1.0 — 2026-09-14 No release notes. ## More apps by LONG DUC NGUYEN - [Outstanding Partner](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/outstanding-partner/id6778456225) All apps by LONG DUC NGUYEN: https://appshunter.io/developer/6778456227 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
