Glitches keep asking for me to restore my subscription when I haven't signed up and it doesn't show up in my subscriptions in Google Play. Hopefully, I won't get charged! More importantly, there seems to be no easy way to delete your account or your data. Current going through the FAQs and blogs to see how this is requested. How they are complying with data protection laws outside of the US I'm not sure.

Most of the features are great and make it easier to decide chores. Unfortunately after multiple attempts and uninstalling and reinstalling the app I can't get the notifications to work.

It has a bug! 🐛 after using it for a little less than a week. Homey, started malfunctioning and wouldn't let us open it for more than a minute. It would close out and then tell us there was a bug and to update it when the developer fixes it. Good concept though.

Excellent way to help kids keep track of chores, whether free or paid. Love the options. Tricky to learn at first and figure out, that's why I would take one star off,but didn't. But once you get the hang of it, it's handy and useful. Even has a feature where picture can be taken to show proof of chores. My kids like the jar feature where they can put certain percent or amount into jars and save up for something.

Rating a 4 because it is very simple and easy to understand, it does almost exactly what I want. Most apps are banking OR allowance. However, not a 5 star because one device using it closes out the app on another device. This bug is especially frustrating when I'm trying to create a new entry. Also not a 5 because the Child account can see too many settings in my opinion, and there are no icons available to choose for jobs and chores besides a broom or else you have to take a photo yourself.

Cannot seem to find an app that does what I wanted to. I really just want a glorified connected spreadsheet, that I can record money put in, record money put out. And then it will do the automatic calculations!

Notice they haven't updated the app since April 2023. Is good app BUT 1) Daily streak counter at the top (which is supposed to track how many days you do chores is stuck at *1*). Never increases 2) Daily Goal doesn't work. Can set it, but only keeps track of 1st couple responsibilities checked off that day and then stops counting them. Have completed all responsibilities multiple times and never "reached daily goal" according to app 3) Don't try picture verification. It tends to break the app

It seems great, but the MAIN functionality is not working as I don't get any notifications. I'm on Android and even when I try to manually allow notifications, I can't. The app doesn't even show as having notifications settings. So without reminders, it's useless.

This app is rated as one of the best for chores from some article I read that lists apps for chores, yet it has had a ridiculous bug ever since I got it. The only reason I'm even sticking with it is because it's the only app I can find that has everything I'm looking for. It's barely worth it though because of the bug and I am honestly tempted on making a chore chart by hand because I am so fed up.

Great idea. App crashes ALL THE TIME! Some features like rotating chores and things are a little difficult to make work. Reports could offer more details such as did they fail because it was late or just not done. Not sure that the premium features are worth the money.
