Frequently Asked Questions

Parents create tasks and assign a star value. When a child completes a task, a parent approves it, and the stars are added to the child's balance. Stars can then be spent on rewards you define.
Instant tasks are completed with a single tap (e.g., "Make your bed"). Timed tasks include a built-in Pomodoro timer for focus sessions (e.g., "Read a book for 25 minutes").
Parents create rewards with a star cost (e.g., "Pizza Night" for 20 stars). Kids request rewards when they have enough stars, and parents approve the request. You can also create shared family rewards that kids contribute to together.
