Bug Fix

Save See and Do coins before approval

Parents can now save coins on a See and Do chore before approval, see the saved amount in the app, and approve the chore later without being asked to enter the coins again.

Feature

Responsibility Pillars, Routines, and Responsibility XP

Family Chores now helps kids build real life skills, not just check off tasks. Build reusable Routines — like Clean Room or Morning Routine — from a sequence of smaller chores, then assign them straight from the dashboard's new + Add menu with due dates and repeats. Each routine step appears in the chore list like a normal chore (approvals, New Skill Bonus, and Kiosk Mode included), with a routine badge you can tap to see overall progress, and finishing the last step pays a routine completion bonus. Tag chores and routines with one of five Responsibility Pillars — Home Care, Self Care, Organization, Family Contribution, and Life Skills — and kids earn Responsibility XP and pillar levels as they grow, all visible on the profile's Responsibility Progress card.

Feature

New Skill Bonus for first-time chores

Kids now earn a one-time +5 coin New Skill Bonus the first time they ever complete a chore — including the first time they tackle a recurring chore. The dashboard shows a sparkly "New Skill +5" badge on chores a child hasn't done before, and recurring chores get a calendar icon you can tap to reveal how often they repeat.

Update artwork for Family Kiosk Mode for shared tablets
Feature

Family Kiosk Mode for shared tablets

Open Kiosk Mode from the profile menu to turn any family tablet into a simple, focused chore checklist. Pick a player, complete their chores, and switch players or exit with your PIN. Kiosk Mode always stays player-level, so parent, admin, and support controls are never exposed on the shared device.
