Chorsee is a chores and allowance tracker designed for families. Our goal is to provide a clean and simple app that does everything you need to manage your household. PROFILES You will create a profile for each family member to whom you wish to assign chores. CHORES You will create color-coded chores and give each a custom icon. You can schedule tasks daily, weekly, monthly, on specific days, or alternating schedules, tailored to your needs. Chores can be assigned to one or more profiles, can be set to rotate between family members, or be up for grabs to whoever gets to them first. You can also add notes, reminders, categories, and subtasks to the chores. Photo proof can be required for specific chores, so you can see if the job was done up to your standards. BALANCES (optional) You will choose between Allowance, Points, or No Rewards. Each chore can be configured to pay a certain amount. As chores are completed the values are automatically added to that person's balance. Parents can also make manual adjustments for when they give their kids cash or need to deduct points for other reasons. We also support automatic balance adjustments in case you want to give a weekly or monthly allowance. REWARDS You can configure specific rewards within the app. You set a price and then your kids can track their progress as they work toward the goal. This feature helps kids stay motivated and to learn delayed gratification and planning. INSTANT SYNCING BETWEEN DEVICES You can add multiple devices to your household. Each device can be set to Admin mode for parents, or child mode. Kid's devices will only have access to their chore list and won’t be able to edit chores or balances. WIDGET We love widgets, and we’ve made a bunch of them! You can mark off chores right from your home screen or lock screen, and as a parent, you can keep tabs on the entire family without needing to open the app. ACCESSIBILITY We support dynamic type and dark mode. CLEAN AND SIMPLE DESIGN In keeping with our core value of clean and simple, there are a couple of things we’ve chosen to avoid. NO GAMIFICATION Doing chores and earning points or allowance isn’t always the most fun thing in the world. We believe that adding coins, badges, or games to our app is a false motivator that doesn’t last. Kids are very smart and will quickly realize this. Hard work and discipline can carry their own sense of reward and we want to help you maximize this. NO CREDIT CARDS Linking to a real world credit-card or bank account is simply beyond the scope of what we can accomplish as a small team. Instead, we’ve chosen to focus all our attention on making our app completely self-contained. Our built-in allowance/points tracking system is designed to meet the needs of most families while avoiding the complexity and risk that come with online money accounts. You can easily deduct any amount from the virtual balance in Chorsee when you make deposits into your kid's other accounts.

About

hey, did you

Read full description

Your household already runs on texts: "did you feed the dog?", "we need detergent," "is the dishwasher clean or dirty?" HeyDidYou turns those messages into a shared pad that lives on everyone's home screen. See it. Tap it. Trust it. The widget is the app — you'll barely open anything. BUILT FOR HOW HOUSEHOLDS ACTUALLY WORK • A shared pad you and your people can see and update from the home screen • Daily tasks that reset on their own — every day, or on a cooldown ("walk the dog" every 4 hours, "water the plants" every 3 days) • A needs list for the stuff that sticks around until it's handled • House magnets — flip "dishwasher: clean / dirty" right from the widget, and everyone sees it • Heading out? One tap and the needs list follows you to the store • Gentle nudges, never naggy — and it always shows who DID something, never who didn't CAPTURE IN TWO TAPS Add a task or need straight from any widget. Paste a recipe or shopping list — or share a web page from Safari — and HeyDidYou finds the list on it and adds it for you. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your tasks, lists, and notes live in your own iCloud. We never see them. No ads, no tracking, no account required. FREE, AND PRO FOR THE WHOLE HOUSE Free covers a small household. HeyDidYou Pro raises the limits — 500 tasks, 20 people, multiple widgets, more magnets, the events bar, and a year of history. One upgrade covers the whole pad; everyone on it gets Pro. ——— Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.heydidyou.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://www.heydidyou.app/privacy

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: hey, did you at none against Chorsee's shown. Chorsee's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
