## What is MotyMate?

Introducing MotyMate, your new best friend and motivator! Use MotyMate with a friend or SO as an accountability buddy, or as a parent to assign allowances, chores, wellness exercises, and rewards. You can also use MotyMate on your own as self-care tool to keep track of your own wellness, academic, and personal goals.

For families, MotyMate is a chore, allowance, and wellness app designed to empower your kids and teens to cultivate positive habits, complete wellness activities, and foster happiness in a fun and engaging way.

- Engaging and Educational Activities
Assign and schedule age-appropriate tasks and chores for your children. From brushing their teeth to cleaning their room, these tasks are designed to make daily routines enjoyable and manageable.

- Intrinsic Motivation and Positive Mindset
MotyMate has built in happiness exercises (that you can complete with your pet as your guide) designed to help kids think through and meditate on their internal motivators.

In one exercise, kids are encouraged to journal about their successes and things they are proud of accomplishing, and then meditate on how those accomplishments make them feel.

From gratitude journals to mindfulness activities, our happiness exercises are designed to encourage positivity, empathy, and resilience in your child.

- Creative Customization
Allow children to customize their virtual pets, which serve as their companions in the journey of growth. Kids earn stars, our virtual currency, by completing tasks and wellness activities. They can then use these stars to personalize their pets with unique appearances, habitats, and more.

- Rewarding Achievements
Parents can assign a weekly allowance based on chores completed, which can be used to request real rewards in the app, such as Amazon wish list items, toys, or any custom reward you create, such as a trip to the park or screen time. 

- Monitor Growth
Monitor your child's growth and progress in real-time. Get insightful reports on task completion, happiness exercise engagement, and overall app usage.
MotyMate is more than just an app—it's a tool to help your child learn, grow, and shine in their own unique way. 

Download MotyMate today, and let the journey of growth and happiness begin!

### 3/5 — Not a child, do want to complete tasks

*2023-07-04*

I've been looking for a habit tracker and a pet app separately, so when I saw this I expected it to be a bit like Finch (but way cuter) and got excited. When signing up it asks if you're a parent or if you are a child, teen, or motypet owner (I think was the term). While I'm not a child, I do want to be the one completing tasks with a cute little animal, so I went with the second choice. I think it would be good if it asked age, because now I need to download this on a separate device to be my own "parent" and assign myself tasks 😆 Not a big deal, but maybe a feature worth editing in the case of those who don't want to go through that.

**Developer response:** Hey there! Thanks so much for the feedback. We originally created the app for kids, but have recently started modifying it for adults to use as a habit tracker as well. 

You can currently assign yourself habits all from one device. Just tap on the "Family" button in the menu, then sign up with your email under "Parent". 

I apologize for the confusion. We will be modifying all profile terms asap in the next app update to remove the "Parent" and "Child" wording for our adult users.  This way you can more easily use it to track healthy habits for yourself. :)
