For kids too young to read a list

The chore chart your kids can watch on the TV

Each child has an avatar that walks a picture map as the week's routines get done. Parents run it from a phone. The whole family watches it on the television.

Free. No ads, no subscription, no in-app purchases. Children never have accounts.

Why a television

The chart is in the room, not in a pocket

Most chore charts live on a parent's phone, which is the one place a four-year-old never looks. A paper chart on the fridge works better for exactly that reason: it is in the room.

FamilyQuest puts the chart on the screen the family already gathers around. Each child's progress is visible without anyone asking, and goals can be checked off with the remote.

  • Apple TV and Fire TV, set up with the remote alone
  • Live with every phone in the family
  • Sunday's results land on the big screen too

Built for a child who can't read yet

Three ideas, no reading required

A path, not a list

Every goal done moves the avatar along the map. A three-year-old can read a position on a path long before a percentage.

The week is the unit

Seven days, one colour each, today lifted. When Sunday closes, the result is frozen and kept. A good week stays a good week.

A reward they chose

The finish line is the reward the child picked. Go further and a crown, with a bonus, is waiting past it.

How it works

Set it up in an evening, then just tap

Real screens from the iPhone app, with a real week in them.

  1. The family screen: two children with avatars and this week's percentage, and the shared quest map below

    Add your children and their goals

    Brushing teeth twice a day, tidying up, eating the vegetables. Simple check-offs, or a friendly four-level rating for the fuzzier ones like “how was sharing today?”. A library of starter goals gets you going in minutes.

  2. One child's screen: her quest map, the reward she is working toward, and a grid of goals with one square per day

    Let them choose the reward

    A child who picked the reward cares about the map. Weight the goals that matter most so they count for more, pause one for a holiday, or give it an end date when it finishes: school, daycare, a swimming term.

  3. The Sunday ceremony: last week's result for each child, with the reward they earned

    Watch the week fill in

    On a phone, a tablet or the TV. When the week ends the result is frozen and kept, so a good week stays a good week even if you change the goals afterwards. Sunday counts up, together.

Where it runs

Every screen in the house

Android phones are in closed testing on Google Play and not yet public. Two parents share one family with a six-digit invite code, and a television joins by pairing with a code shown on its screen. Everything is in English and Canadian French, on every platform.

Privacy

Children don't have accounts

A parent signs in. The children exist only inside that family's own data, and only the family can see it.

No device identifiers, ever. No tracking, and nothing sold or shared with third parties. The app records which platforms a family uses, a short list such as “iPhone” and “Apple TV”, and nothing that could single out a device or a person.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes — free, with no advertising, no subscription and no in-app purchases.

Does it work for a child who can't read?

That is what it was built for. The quest map is pictures, not text, so a three or four year old can see their own progress without reading anything.

Can both parents use it?

Yes. A second parent joins the same family with a six-digit invite code and both phones stay in sync.

Is there an Android version?

Android is in closed testing and not yet on Google Play. The Fire tablet and Fire TV versions are Android builds and are available now through the Amazon Appstore.

Is it available in French?

Yes, English and Canadian French, on every platform. This page is also available in French.

What happens to a week after it ends?

It is frozen and kept as it was. Editing goals later never rewrites a week your child already finished.
