## What is Fridgeboard?

Fridgeboard is the shared family calendar that replaces the whiteboard on your fridge.

Everyone in the family can add or edit plans from their iPhone — a doctor's appointment, soccer practice, family dinner, or a repeating chore like laundry day. Set up a second device as your family's shared display — propped on the counter, mounted on a wall, wherever works for you — and it shows the same schedule continuously, in big, easy-to-read text — no scrolling, no app-hunting, just "Today," "Tomorrow," or "In 3 days" at a glance.

FEATURES
• Add events from any iPhone — title, notes, date, optional time, and repeat schedule (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly)
• A dedicated view for your shared display, designed to be read from across the room, with adjustable text size for different iPad models
• Automatic icons and colors so the board is scannable, not just a wall of text
• Instant sync across every device in the family
• Local notifications when someone adds something new, while the app is open
• Control whether the shared iPad can add/edit events or is view-only

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
Fridgeboard doesn't run its own servers. One family member sets up a free account with Back4App (about five minutes, no credit card required), and the family's schedule lives there — not on servers we control. Bring the rest of the family on with a simple, passcode-protected sharing link or a QR code scan.

Perfect for busy households, blended families, roommates, or anyone tired of a whiteboard nobody updates.
