Give each other tasks — parents to children, children to parents, everyone to everyone. Sparrows keeps reminding the right person until the job is finished, then hands out the points.
14 days free · one purchase unlocks the whole family · no subscription
No account, no email, no password. One person creates the family, everyone else joins with a six-character code.
Type a family name and what everyone calls you. That is the whole sign-up.
Share a code or let them point a camera at it. Children get their own view, parents get the keys.
Who, when, how often to remind, how many points. Then let the app do the nagging.
A task with a deadline is not a note that quietly expires. Sparrows nudges the person it was given to — every 30 minutes, every hour, whatever you chose — until the job is marked done.
Turn on the check and a finished task does not close on its own: it comes to you with a photo. Accept it, or send it back with one line about what is still wrong.
Every task can be worth points. Points pile up, and the family decides what they buy. A child asks for a reward, a parent approves it — and the balance does the arguing instead of you.
Switch between day, week and month to see what is landing on whom. Useful the evening before, when someone insists they have nothing to do.
Swipe through the app: setting up, the family, a task from the child's side, and what a parent sees.
Give each other tasks. Get reminded until they are done.
Every task is visible to the person who gave it and the person who has to do it — nobody else, not even the other parent. If you want it shared, there is a switch for that, and children have it too.
English, Russian, French, German, Spanish and Portuguese — each phone follows its own setting, and so do the notifications. A grandmother in another country gets her reminders in her language.
A task can also carry a shopping list from our other app: paste a ShopPing link into a task, and “buy bread” opens the real list with the items in it.
One purchase, once, for the whole family — every parent, every child, every phone. Not a subscription, not per person, nothing renews.
Coming soon to the App Store — iPhone first, Android later.
No. A child opens the app, types the invite code and their name, and they are in. No email, no password, nothing to remember.
Yes, and they usually do within the first hour. Parents can decide how often a child's reminders may repeat — “as they set them”, “no more than every two hours”, or “no repeats”.
The profile stays with the family, not with the phone. Another parent can hand it back to a new phone with all tasks and points. A parent who linked their Apple ID can also restore it alone.
No. A task is private between the author and the people it is for. Sharing it with the other parents is a switch, off by default — and children have that switch too.
No. Everyone sets their own quiet hours, and repeat reminders wait until those are over.
Yes. Whoever buys it unlocks the family; everybody else just keeps using the app. There is nothing to renew and nothing to cancel.
