For families with kids aged 10–16
Chores that kids actually want to finish.
TaskBuddy turns the household to-do list into a game worth playing. Assign tasks, check the photo evidence, and let earned points buy the rewards your family already agreed on.

The problem
Reminders get forgotten. Charts go stale.
Most families land on nagging, a paper chart that stops being updated by week three, or a generic to-do app that gives a child no reason to care.
Verbal reminders vanish
Asking three times isn't a system. Nothing is written down, so every week starts from scratch.
Paper charts fall behind
They work for a fortnight. Then nobody updates them, and the chart quietly stops meaning anything.
To-do apps don't motivate
A checklist built for adults at work gives a twelve-year-old no reason to open it twice.
How it works
Assign, prove, reward.
You assign the task
Create chores with a difficulty rating and assign them to one child or several. Set them to repeat.
They prove it's done
Your child marks it complete and uploads a photo, so "I did it" stops being something to argue about.
You approve, they earn
Approve or send it back with a note. Approved work pays out XP for levelling and points to spend.
What makes it stick
Built around how families actually work.
Two currencies, on purpose
XP drives levels and never gets spent, so progress never goes backwards. Points are the spendable currency. A child can save up for something big without losing the level they climbed to.
Photo evidence before points
Completion needs proof, and you approve it. That single step removes most of the friction about whether a job was really finished — or finished properly.
No email address for kids
Children sign in with a memorable family code and a PIN — nothing like
MEGA-VIPER-8481 requires giving a ten-year-old an inbox.
Both parents, equal access
Invite a partner, co-parent or guardian and they get full management access. Chores aren't one parent's admin job.
Rewards with real limits
Set what points can buy, cap redemptions per child and per household, and add expiry dates — so the reward catalogue stays something you can actually honour.
See who's drifting
Streaks, achievements and completion reports show which child is falling behind while it's still a small conversation.
