About FamilyPoints
FamilyPoints is an iPhone and iPad app for families who want chores to feel fair and visible instead of a source of nagging. Parents create tasks, assign points for completed activities and give each child an individual profile, so kids can follow their own progress and the family can see an activity history.
The design is aimed at real households with several children and busy schedules. Features mentioned in the listing and update notes include scheduled tasks with a weekly overview, optional approval before a task counts, manual or automatic task resets, and an image scanner added in a recent update. An optional AI Judge can help assign points fairly.
The app is free to download with in-app purchases, and a FamilyPoints Plus subscription adds advanced features such as AI-powered task judgment and deeper family insights. It is listed in the Education category with a 4+ age rating.
