Questions
How does payday work?
Each child has their own pocket money and payday, such as 5 every Saturday, 10 every 2 weeks, or 20 on the 1st of every month. On payday the app adds the pocket money to that child by itself, and tells you at the top. If nobody opened the app for a few weeks, it adds every payday that was missed, and you can tap Undo if you did not give those weeks. Monthly paydays on the 29th, 30th or 31st move to the last day in shorter months.
How do paid chores work?
Each child has their own list of chores, each with its own pay, such as "Wash the car, 2". Tap Done when they have done it and the money is added. A chore can be done more than once a day. Chores with no pay (such as "Make your bed") are ticked off without money, so they still show on the chart.
Where is the money really?
Wherever you keep it: in a jar, a money box, a bank account for them, or with you as the "bank of mum and dad". The app keeps the count, so everyone knows how much each child has. When they spend some, tap Take money out. You cannot take out more than they have.
What does the savings goal show?
How much of the goal they have saved, how much is still needed, and how many paydays of pocket money that is, with the date: "17.50 to go: about 4 more paydays (Sat 14 Nov)". Chores make it come sooner. When there is enough, tap Bought it to take the money out.
Can two parents use it?
Everything is saved on this device only. To move it to another phone, use Save a backup file and Restore a backup there. The chore chart can be printed for the fridge so everyone can see it.
Is it private? Does it work offline?
Your children's names and money stay in this browser on this device: no account, and your data is never sent anywhere. Once loaded, the app works with no connection.
