## What is HouseKin?

HouseKin keeps a household's day in one place that the family and their domestic helper both see — so the same questions stop being asked every morning, and the things that matter are written down where everyone can check them.

TODAY AT A GLANCE
Open the app to what matters now: today's events, what needs buying, tasks that are due, public holidays, rest days, and anything waiting on someone. On supported devices, Apple Intelligence sums it up in a sentence or two, on the device itself.

A SHARED CALENDAR
• Day, week and month views — choose which one the calendar opens in
• Repeating events: daily, weekly, every other week, monthly
• Change one date of a series, or every date from one on — move this weekend's rest day without touching the rest
• The helper's rest day as a weekly event
• Public holidays for Hong Kong, Singapore, the UAE or Qatar, added for you
• Bring in an event from your own calendar or a calendar file
• Place search, and one tap to open the address in Maps

SHOPPING AND TASKS
• What to buy, by when, who is buying it, and who asked
• Routines like laundry and one-off jobs, ticked off day by day
• Tasks and events for the children too, even without a phone of their own

OVERTIME, RECORDED FAIRLY
• Overtime in half-day steps — recorded by the family, or requested by the helper for approval
• Each day settled by paying it out, a day off in lieu, or banking it for later
• A running tally for the month and the year

SALARY AND CASH
• Salary by pay period, with a countdown to pay day
• Add a bonus to a salary and hand it over in one go
• The helper confirms each payment they receive, so both sides keep the same record
• A household cash float: money handed over, money spent, and what should be left
• Scan a receipt and HouseKin reads the total for you to confirm, keeping the photo with the expense

PRIVATE TO YOUR HOUSEHOLD
Each household's information is visible only to the people in it. The family sets up the household and invites others with a one-time code; admins choose who can do what. Sign in with Apple, Google, or a phone number — the helper doesn't need an email address.

HouseKin is a record-keeping tool. It is not legal or employment advice.
