If you are not in a Task-K I community yet, please contact us to learn more BEFORE installing our app. Task-K I is a resource sharing app for working parents that reduces day-to-day parenting stress. With one click, working parents can ask trusted peers to pick up their children from daycare, pre-schools or afterschool programs on-time without guilt. Say good-bye to expensive late pick-up fees! Cannot afford to have a date night? Now you can. The Task-K I app assists with exchanges of services among trusted parents through use of ‘’village points.” All of these transactions take place in trusted communities where working parents will build on top of their existing childcare communities they already belong. Task-K I is available throughout in the United States where your childcare provider participates as a partner in the communities. Call your childcare provider to find out if they are already a Task-K I partner. If not, visit www.task-ki.com to ask them to become one now! Once your childcare provider becomes a Task-K I partner, you will follow these easy steps: - Get to know other parents in your community through the app. - Provide pre-authorization for your peers to pick up your child. - Click request a pick-up when you expect to be arriving late. - When your request is accepted, the app will show the progress of the pick-up. - When your parent helper arrives, your childcare will check them in, verify their identity and check them out. - The location of the parent helper with your child can always be monitored. - You meet up with the parent helper, confirm when the service is completed, and the app automatically transfers points for the pick-up services. - Points are redeemable for any allowable services offered by parents (e.g. a date night, prepared meals, tutoring, etc).

The CmtyHelp team intends to build better, stronger and sustainable local communities through various functionalities offered by the CmtyHelp application. The user can be defined as a person who renders or receives services such as shoveling snow, mowing lawn, dropping off/picking up stuff etc. within the same local community. The application matches the user who could render the service with the user who will receive the service within the same local community. The matching takes place based on certain criteria such as availability of the user and the services that can be rendered by the users. There will be an Administrator in charge of overlooking the wellbeing of this local community. We intend to provide a way for the members of the community to communicate among themselves in both good times and bad times. We also foresee this application as a platform to boost local, national and global businesses.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: CmtyHelp at none against Task's shown. CmtyHelp also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 18 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Task's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
