## What is HunnyDewBee?

HunnyDewBee is the shared family todo app built on Apple Family Sharing. One subscription covers your whole group, lists sync in real time, and your todos stay unreadable to us.

Built for the household actually doing the chores: partners, parents, kids old enough to claim their own list, and anyone tired of scrolling back through the family chat to find that one thing they forgot.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

  • Share a todo list with everyone in your Apple Family
  • Assign todos to family members and watch progress sync live
  • Sort todos by category: Shopping, Chores, Recipes, Errands, or any you create
  • Set due dates, recurring schedules, and notes on each todo
  • Break big todos into subdos and check them off one at a time
  • Drop pins on the Hive Map so chores tie to the places they happen
  • Ask the Hive Mind AI assistant to draft, organize, and prioritize your todos
  • Earn badges for staying consistent

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Your phone encrypts your todos and subdos before they sync. Only the devices in your family group hold the keys, so we can't read them. Your hive's name and the content of shared notifications work the same way.

Profile details and app settings are encrypted on our servers, but not yet end-to-end. We're moving them to the same device-held keys. List names save as ordinary app data.

The Hive Mind AI assistant is different. To answer you it may send any of your hive's todos to our AI provider, not just the ones you mention, along with titles, due dates, priorities, and who they're assigned to. Your device answers many requests on its own if it supports Apple Intelligence. Otherwise our AI provider writes the reply, and it doesn't use your data to train its models. We store your chat history with your account like regular app data. It isn't end-to-end encrypted, so your conversations stay available.

A Recovery Code keeps you in control if you switch devices or lose iCloud Keychain. Sign in with Apple works too, including Hide My Email.

ONE SUBSCRIPTION, YOUR WHOLE APPLE FAMILY

Subscribe once and everyone in your Apple Family Sharing group gets the app. No invite codes. No separate accounts. No extra payments. Every member keeps their own login and their own private todos. They just share what's in the family hive.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-02

This update fixes a serious encryption bug. Signing in on a new or reinstalled device could replace your encryption key. When that happened, your other devices lost access to your own todos and profile. The app no longer replaces a key it cannot open. It asks you to recover it instead.

Also in this update:

The calendar and Hive Map on the Todos tab display correctly on iPad again.
Reinstalling the app no longer walks you back through first-time setup or offers to recreate categories you already have.
Saved passwords for hunnydewbee.com now fill in on www.hunnydewbee.com as well.
Small layout fixes on the Family and Profile screens on iPad.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-30

iPad
• Todos opens side by side. Pick one on the left, read and edit it on the
  right without losing your place.
• Profile, Activity, and Hive Mind now use the full width.

New
• Recurring todos have their own screen.
• A month streak calendar on your profile.
• Month view is now a way to look at your todos instead of a separate place
  to go.
• Hive Mind suggests what to look at next and remembers recent chats.

Fixed
• Family members' photos stayed stuck loading.
• A todo added while your device was still setting up encryption could only
  be read by you. Existing ones repair themselves.
• Reinstalling the app made you redo first-time setup, including categories
  you'd already created.

### 1.0.13 — 2026-08-28

Minor bug fixes and performance improvements. Major improvements to the HiveMind AI. Better results for local and cloud AI.
