What your child sees when they open it

This is the part most chore apps skip. Your child does not get your dashboard — they get their own screen, behind their own four-digit PIN, with big tiles built for a tablet and a small thumb.

Today's chores are at the top, their points are in a badge they can spot from across the room, and the rewards they are saving for are one tap away.

On the kid screen

• Their own PIN — siblings cannot tap through each other's chores
• Chores as tiles they tick off, with a progress bar that fills
• Points landing with a celebration sized to what they earned
• A reward store they can browse, with prices they understand
• A daily mood check-in: five faces, one tap

The virtual pet that keeps them coming back

Every child gets a pet — a unicorn, a dragon, a bunny — that levels up from what they actually did yesterday. The pet has five needs that drift down while nobody is looking, so there is a reason to open the app before anyone nags.

Points can be spent in the pet room on furniture and colours, which is usually the first time a child chooses to save rather than spend. The pet responds to your child's effort; it never replaces them or shames them for a bad day.

Drawing, stickers and achievements

A full-screen drawing canvas, sticker packs unlocked from the reward store, and achievements that mark real milestones rather than handing out trophies for opening the app. It is the reason a seven-year-old asks for the tablet to do chores, which is a sentence most parents do not expect to say.

Safe for children by design

• No ads, no advertising ID, and nothing to buy from inside the kid screens
• No chat, no other users, and no public profiles
• Kid screens are locked to the PIN; settings and billing stay behind the parent code
• Children never need an email address or an account of their own
