Waffled is the calm command-center for family life. One shared home for your calendar, chores, meals, pantry, shopping lists, and goals — so everyone in the house is finally on the same page. Mount an iPad on the wall or counter as a family display, and carry the same plan in your pocket on your phone. Everything stays in sync. • SHARED CALENDAR — Everyone's events in one view, with countdowns to the days that matter ("3 sleeps until the trip!") and birthdays that never sneak up on you. • CHORES & REWARDS — Assign chores, snap photo-proof when they're done, and let kids earn rewards. Set up a rewards jar to save toward a shared goal. • MEALS & SHOPPING — Plan the week's meals and build the grocery list from them. Scan barcodes to add pantry items in a tap. • PANTRY — Track what's in the house and what's about to expire, with allergen warnings for the whole family or per person. • GOALS — Keep the family's intentions front and center, from reading streaks to saving up for something big. • RHYTHMS — The things that should keep happening but aren't chores and aren't goals: trash out weekly, the air filter every three months, a family outing on the third weekend. Waffled counts down to each one and gets out of the way. • WEEKLY PLANNING — Sit down once a week and decide the week ahead together: what's still open, the calendar, goals, meals, who does what, and a turn for the kids. • FAMILY NIGHT — A customizable, auto-rotating agenda for your weekly family time. • A HOME SCREEN THAT'S YOURS — Reorder and hide the cards on your Today view so it shows what your family actually cares about. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Waffled is self-hostable and open source. Run it on your own server and your family's data stays yours — no ads, no tracking, no selling your life to anyone. Get your family on the same page. Get Waffled.
