HomeDo
The household task app that keeps everyone accountable — kids included.
Assign tasks, earn points, claim rewards. No more nagging — the app does the reminding.
Everyone knows what needs doing
One shared task list for the whole household. Assign tasks to individuals or leave them open for anyone to claim.
Kids earn points, parents set rewards
Completing tasks earns points. Parents define what those points are worth — screen time, pocket money, outings. Redemption requests need parent approval.
Task swaps and negotiation
Kids can propose task swaps with each other or request double-point bonus rounds. Parents stay in control of what gets approved.
Recurring tasks and streaks
Set a task once and it repeats on your schedule. Streaks reward consistency — kids see their progress build over time.
Push notifications
Get notified when tasks are completed, requests come in, or swaps are proposed — without opening the app.
