Houbi is the to-do list app that rewards you with reward points for completing tasks.
Reward points can be exchanged for reward tickets.
You can also share your to-do list with other users. A group such as a family and a couple can share lists of things to do such as housework and childcare, and can enjoy completing tasks with each other!
You can also use it to motivate and encourage your children to help out.
# Concept and Benefits
- By rewards motivate and inspire to do things, such as chores, childcare and study which aren’t usually rewarded.
Reward yourself with points for "nameless chores" that no one else sees but you do all the time!
- Rewards alleviate inequities in the division of housework and childcare.
It is very difficult for groups such as families and couples to share housework and childcare equally. This application does not aim at equal sharing of household chores, but rather, by rewarding chores with points, it can alleviate the unfairness of sharing chores and can encourage partners and family members who do not do chores to do them. As a result, we aim to improve the relationship between families, couples, couples, and partners.
# Features
Compared to general to-do list apps, the following features are unique.
- Rewards function. When you create a task, you can set the number of points that will be your reward, and you can earn points when you complete the task. Accumulated points can be exchanged for user-defined reward tickets. This function is designed to increase motivation.
- Data sharing function. Invite family members and share your to-do list with their smartphones.
- Member switching function. You can manage multiple members in one account, so you can manage tasks for children who do not have a smartphone. This is useful for managing rewards for helping out.
