    The idea is there but the execution is not! The app is not easy to use, and is lacking a lot of flexibility. If you only have one kid this may be easier but I have 4 and it makes it difficult. Other chore apps have much more flexibility when it comes to frequency of tasks, allowing every other day options, etc. The education piece is lovely and a great addition to this type of setup but again executed poorly. The kids don’t care that it’s there, even though they get paid for completing the units. There is just nothing that draws a child in. Even if they were rewarded with something silly like a background or sticker for the app or something. Finally I hate that it doesn’t directly fund to the kids card. That we have to fund the parent account and then payout to the kids cards. That piece should be done in the background.
  • Horrible bad support

    Absolutely horrible cannot log into account , reset password puts you in a death loop. Email to reset sends you back to app then app sends you back to email. I’m filing a lawsuit with my states attorney, support was no help. Soon as. I get money out I’m Shutting account down. Definitely will be a class action down the road
  • My daughter loves this

    This has been very good for our kids, and as it gets better I’m sure it will rise to a five star rating.

    This app is really weird it has been broken down and I have to pay the app 5 dollars a week to stay in it. It doesn’t make sense that I have to pay the app just to let my kids learn about investing and financial things.
