Ratings and reviews

We have been using this app for years, I still love it!! The homework feature is great. I can add homework for my kids to do. I can filter by subject or child. I can easily move things to a new day if needed. It is very flexible. Great to keep track of due dates. Lists section is good for grocery lists. Everyone can add to the grocery list when they realize there is something needed. You can have a Sams club list or a clothing list. You can also create packing lists for your kids.

Notifications won't enable. I have checked my permissions in app and in phone settings, looked at the support page which was not helpful, updated the app, restarted my phone, and it always says "blocked, try again later". I even signed up for the free trial thinking that would fix it. The whole point of a chore app for my teen was to get notification reminders to keep him on track. I spent a lot of time setting this up and that time could've been used on an app that actually has notifications.

It is a great idea and headed in a good direction, but it could use some work. First, I cannot enable notifications for it from any of my devices. It always tells me the notifications are blocked even when they are not. Also, I would love it if it could sync to the calendar on my phone/tablet to make transferring my already filled schedule possible rather than having to manually reenter each and every date.

What’s new

This update introduces calendar upgrades and quality-of-life improvements! You can now switch to a 24-hour clock format, choose your preferred default calendar view, and enjoy auto-saving notes that clearly show when they were last updated. New families will also notice a smoother, more intuitive onboarding experience. The update also brings bug fixes and fully anonymous analytics (which parents can turn off anytime in Settings) to help the app continue improving.
