Give A Chit keeps track of whose turn it is. Every group has something that goes around — hosting the next dinner, choosing the book, bringing snacks to practice, rotating chore responsibility or even which lawnmower battery to use next. Give A Chit keeps track of whose turn it is (who/what holds the “chit”) so no one has to remember, argue, or keep a list on the fridge. Your list can be private or shared with others. If you do want to share the list with others, Give A Chit syncs your groups and shares turn-taking through your own iCloud account, so you'll need to be signed into iCloud to create and share groups. HOW IT WORKS Create a group, add members to the group and keep track of who/what goes next. When you are done, pass the chit to the next person/item in the rotation. Shared groups allow members with iPhones to see who holds the chit now and who’s up next. +Those without an iPhone can still take part: a leader passes the chit for them, and they can be notified by text that the next turn is theirs. BUILT FOR REAL GROUPS • Book clubs — whose turn to pick and host • Dinner and hosting duties • Gift exchanges and potlucks • Chores and household rotations • Carpools and shared responsibilities • Any turn that goes around a group FEATURES • Pass the chit with a tap, in rotation order • Skip someone this round without losing their place • Mark members “sitting out” and bring them back anytime • Leaders and co-leaders can run the group and pass on someone’s behalf • Members without the app can be notified by text when it’s their turn • Create groups of items as well as people for rotation • A full history log of every pass, skip, and change • Reorder the rotation; give groups your own private nicknames • Syncs across your devices with iCloud NO ACCOUNTS, NO ADS Give A Chit uses your iCloud account to sync and share — there’s nothing new to sign up for, no ads, and no tracking. Your groups are yours. Give a chit about whose turn it is — so everyone gets theirs.

Hustly's advantage is ratings volume (60 vs 2) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
