Core Features Quests & Activities Kids complete engaging quests and daily activities such as exercise, chores, healthy habits, and steps. Quests can be time-based, count-based, or goal-based, helping kids build consistent routines. Points, Rewards & Screen Time Kids earn points for completed activities and exchange them for rewards like screen time and other perks. This creates a clear, motivating link between real-world actions and device use. Parental Review & Oversight Parents review submitted activities, approve progress, and define how points and rewards work. This keeps kids empowered while ensuring healthy boundaries. Smart Activity Timer Built-in timers help kids track activities with clear visual feedback and progress indicators. Completed activities can be submitted for parent review. Quick Actions One-tap activity logging with pre-filled templates makes it easy to record common activities, chores, and habits. Progress Tracking Both kids and parents get clear dashboards showing completed activities, earned points, pending approvals, and overall progress. School Marks (Optional) Kids can log school grades using customizable rating systems (A–F, 1–10, and more), allowing families to track academic progress alongside activities. Real-Time Sync Progress, approvals, and rewards sync across devices so families always see up-to-date information.
