## What is Rooteen Family?

Rooteen Family is the parent companion app for Rooteen — the routine app your pre-teen or teen actually opens.

You install Rooteen Family on your phone. Your child installs Rooteen on theirs (free, separate app). You pair the two with a 6-digit code, then supervise their daily chores, homework, and routines from your dashboard.
If you’ve tried sticker charts, allowance apps, or chore spreadsheets — and watched them die by week three — this is different. Rooteen turns routines into an RPG-style progression system built for 8-to-13-year-olds. 

They earn XP and unlock achievements on their side. You see progress, approve tasks, and send rewards on yours.

Because chore charts work for 6-year-olds. For 8-to-13-year-olds, you need something they’ll actually open.

— WHAT YOU DO AS A PARENT (this app) —
FREE
• Pair with your child using a 6-digit code (10 seconds)
• Pick tasks from the preset catalog: Hygiene, School, Movement, Home, Evening
• Get a real-time push when your child completes a task
• See their level, streak, and today’s progress

ROOTEEN FAMILY PRO unlocks
• Custom task creation with icon, category, schedule, and timer
• Per-child approval toggle — review submissions or trust them to self-manage
• Multiple children on one parent account
• Family Challenges — time-boxed quests where the first sibling to finish wins bonus XP
• Global Leaderboard for each linked child
• Send custom badges with a celebration animation

Monthly, yearly (save 50%), or lifetime (pay once). Cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.

— WHAT YOUR CHILD SEES (in the Rooteen app, on their device) —
• Opens Rooteen every day and sees today’s routine as a list of quests
• Marks each one done — earns XP, levels up, unlocks achievements
• Keeps the streak alive (miss a day, streak resets)
• Picks an avatar from 68 options: astronauts, dragons, wizards, ninjas, animals
• Gets a celebration when you send a custom badge (Pro)
• Uses a focus timer to hit a target duration on homework or reading

No farm animals. No stickers. No treating a 12-year-old like a 6-year-old.

— WHY PRE-TEENS STOP ROLLING THEIR EYES —
Because Rooteen speaks their language. XP, levels, streaks, achievements — the same loop as the games they already play. It’s built specifically for 8-to-13-year-olds: not too childish, not too adult.
The secret isn’t the reward — it’s the progression. Watching the XP bar fill, keeping a 30-day streak, unlocking a rare achievement — that’s what makes routines feel like progress instead of punishment.

— DESIGNED FOR THE IN-BETWEEN AGE —
Rooteen was built for the weird in-between age: old enough to resist “chore charts,” young enough to still need structure. The middle path between childish sticker apps and adult productivity tools.

— TWO APPS, ONE SYSTEM —
• Rooteen Family (this app) — installed on the parent’s device. You manage tasks, approve completions, send rewards.
• Rooteen (separate, free) — installed on your child’s device. They see quests, earn XP, build streaks.
Pairing takes under 30 seconds.

Available in English, French, Spanish, and Japanese.
