Transform Chores into Character-Building Moments RootsUp helps families build responsibility and money habits through a simple three-part system inspired by child development principles. Three Ways Kids Learn Family Contributions Everyday tasks like setting the table, making beds, and tidying rooms help children build responsibility and contribute to the household. Optional Extra Jobs Kids can choose additional tasks, such as yard work or organizing, to earn money and learn the connection between effort and reward. Money Education Age-appropriate lessons guide children from early money basics to saving, planning, and budgeting skills as they grow. For Parents * Create chore lists for each child * Set up recurring or one-time tasks * Assign payment for optional jobs * Track completion across multiple children * Review progress and earnings * Access age-specific money lessons * Manage everything in one family account For Kids * See daily tasks in a clear, visual layout * Complete chores with a simple tap * Choose extra jobs to earn money * Track savings toward goals * Learn money concepts through guided activities * Build consistent routines Why RootsUp Works RootsUp separates everyday family responsibilities from optional paid work. This helps children understand that contributing at home is part of family life, while extra effort can be rewarded. The system grows with your family, supporting early learners through teens with tools and lessons that evolve over time. Designed for Daily Life * Simple setup with age-appropriate suggestions * Fast daily workflow for busy families * Clear parent review and approval flow * Cross-device access * Privacy-focused design Free to Start RootsUp is currently free for families as we continue improving the app. Additional premium features for larger families are planned. Built for Families Who Want * Kids to develop real responsibility, not only reward-based behavior * One system that works from early childhood through the teen years * Practical money education in everyday routines * A long-term, structured approach to habit building Download RootsUp and start building habits that last a lifetime. ## Version history (last 4 releases) ### 1.0.3 — 2026-05-11 • Invite your co‑parent—or open the invitation link—we’ve smoothed signup, email verification, and sign-in. • Clearer messages when your password or connection has a problem. • Parent dashboard: new Kid Learning Snapshot, with a shortcut into detailed weekly reports. • First-time guides for parents and older kids—tap Replay tutorial anytime you want a refresher. • Learning games: optional Read‑to‑me audio and clearer break reminders; parents can enable a stronger break flow for younger kids in Learning Safety. • Faster, less frustrating chores and forms—completions behave more reliably for parents and kids, and the keyboard dismisses when you scroll or tap outside a field.
