Update artwork for Approval Inbox comes to the mobile app
Feature

Approval Inbox comes to the mobile app

Parents can review everything waiting for approval from their phone. A card on the mobile dashboard shows who finished what, Approve All clears the easy ones in a tap, and chores that still need a coin value walk you through them one at a time so nothing is ever approved for zero coins.

Update artwork for Responsibility titles now show up on your phone
Feature

Responsibility titles now show up on your phone

The titles kids earn as they build life skills are on mobile too. A "Your Journey" card on the dashboard shows the title they hold and how close the next one is, earned titles appear on profiles and on the kiosk and switch-profile tiles, and finishing a chore that unlocks a new title celebrates it right there.

Update artwork for Manage Family on mobile now covers awards, friends, and privacy
Feature

Manage Family on mobile now covers awards, friends, and privacy

The mobile Manage Family screen has the same tabs as the website. Parents can create and edit Family Awards (including disabling one without losing its history), manage Family Friends, and handle privacy: review consent status, see what data is stored, share a copy of your family's data, and request or cancel deletion.

Update artwork for Mobile app now speaks French and Spanish everywhere
Bug Fix

Mobile app now speaks French and Spanish everywhere

Achievements, All Chores, the Store, and the dashboard chore list were still showing English to families using French or Spanish. Every screen in the mobile app now follows your language setting, and dates and relative times are formatted for your locale.

Update artwork for Mobile chore editor no longer clears while you type
Bug Fix

Mobile chore editor no longer clears while you type

Adding or editing a chore on the phone kept resetting the description mid-sentence. The form now holds what you type, saves instantly so you can add several chores in a row, and includes the Responsibility Pillar and New Skill Bonus options that the web app already had.

Update artwork for Routines, Notifications, and Manage Family now work inside the mobile app
Feature

Routines, Notifications, and Manage Family now work inside the mobile app

Parents can create and edit Routines from a new Dashboard tab on their phone. Notifications and Manage Family open as real mobile screens instead of bouncing out to the website, and admins can redeem a Family Award on behalf of a child from the mobile Store.

Update artwork for Join your family with an invite code
Feature

Join your family with an invite code

Every invitation now comes with a single-use code and link that a parent can share. Whoever was invited can join with any account they sign in with, so a different email address no longer leaves them stuck outside the family. Codes last 30 days and can be resent at any time.

Update artwork for Sign in with Apple is now available
Feature

Sign in with Apple is now available

Families can use Sign in with Apple on the web and iPhone while Google sign-in continues to work as before. Apple users can keep their email private.
