Verify chores with photos. Watch your household score climb as the whole family contributes. EVERYTHING IN ONE APP KID CHORE BOARDS Build chore lists for every kid in the house. Smart Rotation assigns chores fairly through the week. Multi-step chores. Photo verification for parents. Built-in allowance tracking. Kids tap to mark done, parents verify with a quick tap (or PIN on the family tablet). SHARED CALENDAR & TO-DOS Today's events, tomorrow's reminders, the school week ahead. Add to-dos anyone can claim. Long-press to react with an emoji. See who's responsible at a glance. BILLS & SUPPLIES Track every recurring bill with smart due-date reminders. Log payments. Tag household supplies that are running low. Never run out of toilet paper again. MEAL PLANNING & RECIPES Plan dinners a week at a time. Build a recipe library. Share meal prep across the whole household with one tap. DAILY QUESTS & FAMILY SCORE Three to five household quests roll fresh each morning — log a task, complete a chore, check in on each other. Earn streaks. Snowflakes save them on busy days. A household score every member rallies around. PULSE CHECK-INS A 5-second daily check-in for every family member. See how everyone's actually doing. Closer connections, less guessing. EXTENDED FAMILY TREES Link your household to your siblings, parents, or in-laws. Each household stays private — only Tidy Points and shared events cross between you. A family-wide leaderboard. ROUTINES & RHYTHMS Build morning, after-school, and bedtime routines. Kids see step-by-step what's next. Parents stay out of nag mode. SHARED GROCERY LIST A real-time list anyone can add to. The whole family sees the same items, checks them off as they're bought. TABLET KIOSK MODE Turn an iPad on your kitchen counter into a family command center. Big buttons, soft animations, child-friendly avatar picker, PIN-protected exit, five beautiful themes. The household taps in to mark chores done, log moments, check today's plan.
