Famn β€” All-in-one for the people you live with. A household isn't really a place. It's something you hold together. Famn brings it all into one app: shared shopping lists, meal planning, the family calendar, chores, messaging, and home management. Real-time. In eleven languages. Free. EVERYTHING IN ONE APP Shopping & grocery lists β€’ Shared lists everyone can update at once β€” when one person checks off milk, everyone's list updates instantly β€’ Smart category organization that matches your store layout β€’ Active shopping sessions to track what's already in the cart β€’ Barcode scanning and price tracking β€’ Receipt matching for completed shopping trips Meal planning & recipes β€’ Save and organize your favorite recipes β€’ Drag recipes onto the weekly planner; generate a shopping list with one tap β€’ Import recipes from a URL or scan one with your camera β€’ Send any recipe's ingredients straight to the active shopping list Calendar & family planner β€’ A shared calendar everyone can see and contribute to β€’ Multiple calendars shown together β€’ Birthdays, appointments, school events, travel β€” visible to everyone Tasks & chores β€’ Shared todo lists you can quickly assign to anyone β€’ Recurring chores with weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly rules β€’ A clear history of who did what when β€’ Chore groups for kitchen, garden, kids, and more Messaging β€’ Built-in chat β€” coordinate without leaving the app β€’ Direct and group conversations β€’ Real-time delivery, no refresh needed Property & home management β€’ Track multiple properties from one account β€’ Room organization, document storage (deeds, insurance, manuals) β€’ Property-linked maintenance tasks β€’ Financial tracking over time Contacts & sync β€’ Add and organize household contacts β€’ WebDAV / CalDAV / CardDAV support β€” sync with self-hosted or cloud servers WHAT MAKES FAMN DIFFERENT Everything shared by default. The household is the unit, not the user. No manual "share with my partner" toggle. Real-time, not eventual. Changes appear on every screen in seconds, over a persistent WebSocket. The cart updates while someone's still in the store. One app, not five. Shopping, meal planning, calendar, chores, messaging, and property β€” under one roof, on one bill. Eleven languages. English, Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, and Icelandic. Privacy-conscious by design. WebDAV / CalDAV / CardDAV support means you can keep your data on your own server if you want to. PREMIUM Most of Famn is free. Premium unlocks shopping insights and spending analytics, advanced account score tracking, and historical session data. Famn β€” less chaos, more embrace. ------ You can subscribe to access premium features such as multiple spaces.
